Kolb performed well today. Admit it. Get over it.

Kolb is Da man!

He looked very, very good yesterday. I didn't understand why Vick decided to stay in the Eagles locker room. Atleast Kolb was man enough to support Vick when he was starting. SMH Vick!

Did any of you guys hear what the NY Giants did yesterday during their game at the Meadowlands? They had the nerve to show DeSean Jackson hit yesterday on their Jumbo Tron Monitors, while the NY fans cheered on.

If that would of happened in Philly, that would of made National TV.

Not sure why you bother answering him. Don't wast your breath.

There's more to this than we know right now. I heard that Vick was told to arrive at 12:15 and to stay in the locker room. So not sure if it was his call to make. I'm sure more info will be out about it shorty.

I sure hope they start Kolb next week!

Funny how all the Vick groupies were ready to anoint him as the greatest QB since Joe Montana after 2 good games against bottomfeeding teams, but Kolb dominated an Atlanta team that was regarded by many as the best in the NFC, and also beat a SF team that is better than its record and was predicted to win the NFC West this year. The last 2 weeks have proved something: Kolb deserves to be the starter.

Vick should be traded while he has value and before the end of the season when he will be lost for nothing as a FA. It should be Kolb's job and a veteran such as Garcia can be signed to back him up for the rest of the season. Vick is not Superman....even in his prime in Atlanta, he had a 53% career completeion % and choked in the big games. He can run, that's about it....he's better suited to be a punt returner than a QB, in my opinion.

The Falcons are actually pretty dangerous. They are anything but a pushover and have some quality wins under their collective belt.

Kolb: Still conservative but opening up his game riding on some confidence from last week.

If you read between the lines I think that Reid is going to re-instate/re-annoint Kolb. Vick has proven that he can still do it and he presents a serious problem to defensive coordinators because he takes coverage sacks away with his feet, makes the front-seven think twice about everything and forces the safeties to keep their shoulders upfield, but Kolb is the QB Andy Reid has always wanted for his take on the Bill Walsh system.

that is it, I am raiding to Giants thread, how dare they do that when they don't even have a receiver that is close to Jmac or Djac

they are a bunch of pansies anyways, they step one foot in Philly and their heads will come off

This week's game is interesting because the Eagles haven't won on the road against a AFC team since 2007.

[DRob4JC]

Another interesting game will be vs. the Colts after our bye week.

Reid always wins games after the bye - but we also never beat Peyton. Something has to give.

Yes, tough call on that one. It's at home so there might be a chance for a W. If it was in Indy, I'd say forget it.

Andy Reid has officially announced Kolb as the starter for this week's game in Tennessee.
