Kolb for both, and not just for my pure hatred of Vick

1) He is younger
2) I still dont buy Vick as a good QB for our system (or the NFL)
3) He should get a fair chance to prove he can be our starter, something he was robbed of due to a concussion.
I'm not from Philly but some say I'm blunt.

This next game will be big for Kolb.  He beats/plays well against Tennessee & Vick not having played for a month you stick with Kolb.  Kolb stinks up the joint and starting Vick the next game is a no-brainer.

Really like what we're seeing from Kolb.

Kolb is my starter like I thought he was going into the season before he was hurt, and when he was ready to come back and Reid started Vick anyway. You won't find out if he's for real if he's on the bench like he's been the last two years. The longer that this team keeps shuffling Vick and Kolb back and forth, is the longer we have to wait to see if Kolb is the qb for the future or not.

I like Vick as a backup, and thats all. In the NFL, it pays to have a more than capable backup, especially with this o-line. Kolb has already gotten' knocked out and we aren't halfway through the season yet.

You honestly think that if Kolb is a failure, Reid's job is on the line? He would need to fail with/on Kolb and have 2-3 seasons of below .500 record for his job to even be in danger.

I see him retiring before he ever gets fired from here.

I think going 0-3 against Dallas, particularly the back to back losses to end the season, changed things. If Reid can bumble his way through this season and not make the playoffs, or lose in the first round again, he might want to start making some calls.

If there's going to be no season next year, maybe they keep him around. I don't know how hiring coaches works when there's no games.

I'd go with Vick for this season. I give him a slight edge at this point because he's a bit more dynamic. If Andy decided to go with Kolb I'd have no problem with it.

Depending on how he does for the rest of the season would determine what I did for the future. It's impossible to give a concrete answer of what should be done for the future at this point.

This is a copout but I honestly have no problem going with either at this point.  I wasn't in favor of pulling Kolb for Vick, but I do think Vick can be successful in this offense.  I still think Vick gives them a slightly better chance to win this year, and with how zesty the NFC is, that might be enough to roll the dice and see what happens.

I think what's going to happen is Kolb is going to get another game.  He'll start vs Tenn without Jackson, and if he plays well against a pretty good Titans team, on the road, without pimp, then he's going to get the job back.  If he plays poorly, Vick will play after the bye. 

The question will be what happens when he goes 15-24 for 165 yards 1 TD 1 INT and the team wins 17-13?

We don't know the ceiling for Kolb and we haven't seen the basement although I hope it was the GreenBay game

Still not sold on Vick's decision making - like to see 2 or more games with him to make an opinion

Right now..KOLB for both

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

2010-Vick

He's more exciting to watch and when the offensive line crumbles like it eventually will because it's not very good, he gives them a better chance to win than Kolb

2011 I think depends on just how good Vick plays for the rest of the year. If he plays like he did for the fest of the year, then he's an elite QB and how do you just let that go? Kolb looks good when he gets good protection but can't throw with guys in his face...and yet you could still get a 1st rounder for that, AND still have a great QB? Trade immediately.

If Vick looks meh for the rest of the year, then you let him go (or trade him if you can) and go with Kolb next year. Try to fix the offensive line, get a good compliment to Shady, and don't get Kolb killed again.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

so vick's long TD to d-jax was much more exciting than kolb's throw to maclin ?

phillies will be under 500 this year...book it

So Mike Vick is not more exciting to watch than Kevin Kolb?

Who cares about "more exciting?" You win, or you don't, style points don't count.
