Probably.
I would guess it doesnt matter, Vick will be out at least 2-3 weeks. Im guessing broken collarbone the way he got hit.

Collarbone? They are saying rib injury

Vick will come out to start the second half. At least.. that what I hope for the sake of 2 of my teams.

what? when did kolb look bad ?

No; you don't lose your starting gig due to injury.
Max Power

fumbles snaps and passes batted down at the line...he isn't looking good

of course there is a QB controversy if Kolb plays well.

He only hit a WR once, the rest have been to McCoy and Schmidt.

If Kolb plays well, Vick is a wildcat QB. It's really that easy.
CaptainHook
Footballguy
so youre dismissing the 11 play 72 yard drive he had with his very first time on the field? he threw some really gorgeous passes.

It really does not matter Philly has zero defense. Vick Kolb who cares. Well fantasy wise I guess.

What exactly have you seen from him? He's barely played a half of football this year and is a first year starter. You might want to wait on judging him as a long-term bust.

Are you watching the Eagles game? He's playing in that one.
Max Power

He is taking the checkdown on almost every play.
Slevin Kelevra

Yes and he looks AWFUL out there

So what?

He looks like a first year starter. The important thing will be if he shows improvement as the season goes on.

2 really good drives out of 3...
Unfortunately, when your down by 11 in the 4th quarter, checkdowns have to be exactly that, checkdowns. Also, your going to have to fling the rock. IMO Kolb playing it safe makes no sense, he's already lost his starting job, he has no where to go but down. Throwing checkdowns and not getting your team rolling with some sort of calculated gambles is not going to help you regain your starting job.
Max Power
Footballguy
He is going to have to take shots downfield to win at some point...
Slevin Kelevra

They're down 6-17McCoy has been the entire offense today
Amused to Death

Agreed. This was looking like a nice drive that could have resulted in points with plenty of game to play. Not his fault McCoy fumbled.
Slevin Kelevra

Screens, checkdowns, handoffs to McCoy
This is the Kolb repertoire today

He took them to the 1 yard line on his first drive, and to the 30 on the last drive before McCoy fumbled. We are still in the third quarter, and although I agree they need to look downfield, they were ready to make it a one score game.
That play right there was pretty bad though.Slevin Kelevra

Kolb is Trent Edwards.

Sort of
Kenny Powers
Footballguy
Havent been watching really, but 6.76 YPA and 2 fumbles doesnt sound like he's doing anything but cementing his status as the backup

This.Kolb looks like poo. Can't(or won't) throw it further than 8 yards, seemingly. Not going to win doing that.
I agree. Look at the frustration on the WRs. They are open and Kolb still doesnt see them.

7-7 48 yards and a TD on that drive.Considering he hasn't seen first team reps for weeks, this performance wasn't surprising. Now imagine McCoy wouldn't have fumbled just outside the redzone and the officials wouldn't have screwed the Eagles at the end of the half?WrongMcCoy took them to 1 yard line

Glad you are giving him a chance though, that's good of you.

Yeah, but come on. He's just snapping the ball and waiting for McCoy to roll out so he can make the five yard throw. Washington is letting him. He's not throwing interceptions, but he's not playing well. He's not really doing anything. He doesn't look good.He took them to the 1 yard line on his first drive, and to the 30 on the last drive before McCoy fumbled.

pretty good summary. anyone that watched the eagles developing mcnabb knows that this is what they do with their young qb's. he might not even be given an option to throw downfield.

Used to be McNabb's repertoire until DeSean showed up.It helps when you've got McNabb there to dump all of that corporate knowledge to Washington's D.C. They were bracketing Jackson and Maclin all game and giving them the underneath.

I watched the whole game Matlock. Next mystery? If you don't understand the concept of a first year starting Qb getting 2nd team reps all week, then coming into the game, then you probably should be watching Dancing with the stars reruns because you just don't get it.This is the problem when people don't watch the game but just look at the box score7-7 48 yards and a TD on that drive.Considering he hasn't seen first team reps for weeks, this performance wasn't surprising.

Kolb was fine today, he was far from awful. And I have no dog in this fight either, just think you're way off target.
