well, to Vick's credit...the eagles O-line is non existent, and celek tipped that ball right to robinson.

I really want them to put Foles in. And then for him to blow. The Eagles line is awful.

Why would you want Foles in? I actually feel bad for Vick their calling plays that are sending him right into the blitz? You put Foles in mark my words that team mine as well pack it in. Jmac and DJax love Vick, Foles wouldn't be a popular choice.

Vick shouldn't have made the throw. Was a bad throw on top of it. FOLES

Everyone acting like this game is over when it's only 7-0 in the 1st. Give Vick some more time.

I want them to put Foles in just to shut up all the Vick haters. Foles won't be able to do anything with the O-line they have. You can put Tom Brady back there and he can't do anything. Im not Vick/Eagles fan, im just tired of everyone blaming everything on Vick. It would probably be a lot worse if it wasn't vick back there taking the snap.

meeeeh, i disagree. if vick puts the short pass on the numbers or just slightly out in front of celek like he was supposed to, it's not tipped. thus, no pick.

It's amazing this is the season Vick has stayed healthy. (so far.) shown a lot of toughness.

This is the reason I don't want foles in as an eagles fan. That O-line is terrible, and Foles will be set up for failure or injury.

Both will need to be fitted for crutches the way the Eagles are playing. Are the linemen even putting their hands up?

I agree, that throw was too far ahead of him. Time to bench Vick, he's only getting saved by the running game. But two drives inside the 5 and only 3 points. Sorry, but he's not good enough to run this offense.

Can someone give me some solid argument/stats in favor of playing Foles? I mean just because he's all over the hobby because he was at the Rookie Premiere doesn't make him a superstar. What makes people believe he's gonna do any better than Vick who at least has raw talent and has been elite in the past?

Give Vick some more time.
He had all of 2011 and half of 2012
Is that enough time?

Because Vick will be gone after this season and 2012 is already effectively done

He looked pretty solid in the preseason, also, Eagle fans are really restless to do better. I don't think he'd just light it up out there. That O-Line is ass.

Vick can't read coverages, can't read blitzes, doesn't understand the concept of sliding, and can't score a TD with 1st and goal 4 times in the red zone.
Vick is a turnover machine.
The offense hasn't put up more than 24 points in any game this year. Despite having Mccoy, Maclin, Jackson, and Celek.
Reid has nothing to lose now, give the rookie some snaps and see if he can do something, can't hurt now.

Also, Nnamdi = garbage
O-line = pooptastic
Unfortunately, Reid is going to be gone after this season. I'm thankful for all the good things he's done for us over the years, but I think it might be time to go a different direction.

LOL!! Might not be as big an issue if Reid would have balanced out what actually worked for us...the run game. It's like he totally abandoned it after it was clicking. Then he sprinkled it in to only drain the clock when we were down 15. Terrible play calling.
Missing 4 out of 5 starting offensive linemen could be a little problem in the near future.

To the OP...HELL NO. Don't put anyone with any sort of future behind this line.

VICK sucks... Reid SUCKS... the WHOLE O-LINE ALL SUCK... and Nnamdi is absolute garbage... he got burned big time... all that money for him and Vick down the drain... the EAGLES are a JOKE...time to clean house...

it doesn't matter who they put in there, the o-line cant seem to decide if they want to block or not

If Reid wants to turn Foles into David Carr then doubt he should put him in

Sorry but if you think this team's demise this year starts with Vick you need to watch more football. Sure he's made his share of mistakes but NOBODY could play behind that horrendous line and even worse offensive play calling. Put Foles in (whom the infamous "anonymous sources" have said isn't ready to start) and risk ruining him behind the worst offensive line in the history of professional football ? Really ? If anything, people who watched all the Eagles games this year should appreciate Vick for getting the p*ss beat out of him and going back out there. No way would I want my QB of the future taking that pounding as a rookie. Even when they were only missing Peters and had guys like Herrimens and Watkins in there he was getting killed.
This is on Andy and the front office for poor drafting and even worse FA signings the past few years. They never replaced Peters even though they knew he was out before the season. They have (now had) an aging guard playing right tackle in Herrimens who was regularly abused by such all-pro types as Kory Bierman and Cam Jordan among others this year. They drafted a fireman (Watkins) in the first round to play guard in '11 and signed journeyman types that couldn't play elsewhere to start and it shows. Throw Mornhenwig into that mix and you have what you witnessed last nite. I'm glad this was on national t.v. so people outside of Philly can see for themselves instead of listening to bloggers who watch high-lites of games then write their articles about benching Vick.

As always, nailed it. People who don't follow the Iggs like us local fans do really can't have the perspective that comes with watching game after game, and not just ESPN highlights.

Foles will get his head cracked open with that offensive line. At least Vick is fast and has a chance to evade.

I watch every eagles games and although the line is horrendous, An NFL QB like Vick should be able to at least read blitzes and call protections. He can certainly audible his recievers to run hot and dump the ball off. The great QBs do stuff like that. I won't debate that the line is terrible, but there are things that he can do to help keep a constant blitz on him.
