EAGLES QB MICHAEL VICK NAMED STARTER!

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick looks up toward the crowd as he leaves the field at the end of the fourth quarter Philadelphia Eagles-Green Bay Packers game in Philadelphia at Lincoln Financial Field September 12, 2010. Green Bay defeated Philadelphia 27-20. Vick came into the game in the second half when the score was 20-3 in favor of Green Bay and narrowed the score gap considerably.          UPI/John Anderson Photo via Newscom
During a regular weekly phone conference that kept being interrupted by technical difficulties Eagles head Coach Andy Reid dropped some information that many attributed to the bad connection, I know I did! Reid named his starting QB for the week and it wasn't newly named savior Kevin Kolb.

Coach Reid speaking as candidly as he has in a long time named Michael Vick as his starting QB for the duration of the season. Based on many factors Reid state that "Mike is back and maybe even a little better than before. His accelerated play is the reason for my decision! Michael is an ex-superstar who has regained his ability and thats a beautiful thing!"

Reid stated in closing that he feels the Eagles can win it all with Vick as their leader! A very different sentiment from just two days ago after Vick led the Eagles to a win against the lowly Lions. Reid stated that he met with Kevin Kolb and he "took the demotion like a man and didn't request a trade or anything like that before it's reported."Philly fans now have a reason to go out and enjoy football again without the QB issues that have persisted in the City of Brotherly Love since Kevin Kolb was knocked silly against the Packers. Anyone in their right mind  can see that Kolb is just NOT READY! He needs to learn from Vick the same as Vick learned from the recently traded All-Pro QB Donovan McNabb, who lobbied to bring Vick to Philly.
