Mcnabb out
dumbbest post in this thread so far. He will NEVER be the starter only if Kolb gets injured. Only reason he is on the eagles roster is bc hes a veteran qb used to the west coast offense and they rather have him as kolbs backup vs a guy like a young crappy qb.
i disagree, u watch Kolb will be out of there real quick and the exciting Vick will be in.
There is no way Vick is not gonna start. The Eagles are playing the business game saying otherwise so they don't have to pay him so much and so people cannot say they brought him in to replace McNaab all along and save some face.
This is such a croc-Kolb who?
Did Kolb even take a snap last season?

First quarterback to throw for 300+ yards on each of his first two starts.
I love how everyone puts the blame on McNabb for not winning a SB. What is a QB's job? Throw the ball to open receivers. How many good receivers did he have to throw to? How many offensive weapons? Westbrook... Maybe Smith for like 2 seasons... One year w/ TO and you see what he did. This was not McNabbs fault, it was the ownerships fault he never brought a Championship to this town... He finally starts to get some weapons and we ship him out of town. Oh, and we throw our O-Line out the window the same year. Yea, ALL McNabbs fault...
I seriously hate being a Philly fan sometimes... You people need to get real and look at the sport for real. Where the real problems stem from. Its always ownership...
Personally I'm boycotting the Eagles this year. I won't pull out one piece of apparel this year... So I'm praying they don't win the SB. Because Ill be at the parade w/ my Asshat on...

did ya happen to see what Kolb did in the 3 games he played this past season??? he threw for 391 yards against the superbowl champs...2 scores and 3 picks. than he followed that performance up with a 327 yard game with 2 scores and no picks against KC. call it what you want, but those are the kids first 2 starts.....EVER. im pretty confident this year when he becomes the starter and is out there every sunday, he'll do pretty well. I dont think Vick has ever thrown for a 300 yard game in his career...let alone 2 back to back (i dont know for sure but you get my point).

Verdad Gallardo Vick is an exciting QB the Philly fans will be bored with Kolb real quick, and once he losses a few games in a row (and it will happen) the fans will push Vick into the starting spot. Hes flashy, fast, and exciting to watch he will be the starter eventually.
^ Image counts for much in sports and bringing a BIG name be it notorious will draw fans, sell merchandise and possibly new fans. He if I recall was one of the top Rushing QB's in the league before going to prison. That speaks for much.
Since I am not a fan of either, I can step back look at it objectivly and if you ask the average person (who is not an Eagle's Fan) who Michael Vick is or Kolb, your going to get more hits on Vick.
The ONLY other thing I see is them holding onto both and getting another starter which is risky as for GOD's sake, the 2nd stringers often never get down time.

you're thinkin Vick 5 years ago which he is no more. the guy was nothing more than a good athlete with a strong arm. he's no QB and he never was. he has a career completion percentage of 53.7....thats horrible for someone thats been a starter his entire career. even Koy Detmer had a career percentage of 61.4. not to mention that he's lost a step or 2 in the 2 years he was out of football. the fans here know exactly what he is and what he was brought here to do...be the starter is not on anyone's minds here unless you're completely clueless about football and are just going by the name.
I assume we will use vick more this year than last seeing how we dont have the likes of a westbrook as a ''threat'' in the backfield. Than we will sell him for the highest draft pick.
And for the guys that stated vick will be qb or better off, you guys hated mcnabbs inability to throw to the recievers...vick is a good 6-9% lower of a pass percentage. That right there would get vick boo'd out of philly faster than any pro sport team.

Vick as a full time stater is a joke. his number with the falcons were sub-pare at best.
im not sold on Kolb either. ok he had a few good games last year, whoopee-do. ryan leaf had good games too

point exactly....why the hell do ppl try to talk about things they have no idea about? Vick will NEVER be a starter in philly besides a injury. Only reason we got rid of macnabb was b/c we wanted to move onto the future, i.e favre out Rodgers in....same thing. Only reason we might have kept mcnabb was because we would of went and WON the SB. But that didnt happen, so they shipped him out.

Kolb doesnt have the pressure on him of being the 1st pick in the draft and having to produce. the guy is just kool and laid back. you can hear it in his voice when he talks. he's very relaxed and he looked very comfortable in the pocket in those starts. i think he's gonna suprise alot of people...im not gonna be one of them.

Friendly wager?
Barring injury, Michael Vick will never be the starting quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles. Perhaps a short term interim quarterback, certainly possible he could become a backup, but I will gladly bet he will never be named the starting quarterback.
From the style of offense, to his decline in skills, he is not a fit. He was a charity case and will hopefully be gone soon.
