They are 2-1.

I know the Philly is on death watch but that is Philly for you. They are 2-1 and went into the desert having NO idea what was waiting for them.

Right now there are still people who think AZ is a fluke right now.......hopefully the team continues to prove them wrong.

The only possible way it happens is if Vick gets hurt. Reid isn't sitting him if he can play.

Halloween. (Because Vick isn't going to survive much longer behind that line)

I said yes because I think that Foles will start at least one game by Thanksgiving - probably due to injury.

And that's the only reason I voted yes.. I don't see any way Vick doesn't get injured.. He is getting killed out there.. I was surprised he made it thru the whole game against the Cards..

Bump. Vick would be really good in a nerf football league.

Philly has a similar problem to the Cardinals. A bunch of injuries on the OL. Vick isn't helping the situation but it's not all his fault.

Foles in as Vick leaves with a concussion and he throws his first NFL touchdown. Nick looks very composed, sure wish he was on the Cardinals.

Same here.. Would have been nice.. Whenever KaDeem becomes available I sure hope the Cards get him.. If we can, assuming he isn't a top pick and gone before we get the chance..

Would love that, but you can't spend a 1st rounder on a running back when you have such a crappy OL. And need a QB at some point.

Foles does not look like a rookie. Very mature for a true 1st year player.

They have Foles on one read plays


And he just had a horrific pick negated by a penalty that had no impact on the play

Jury is still out.

I dont think Foles is playing that well. He's been inaccurate, even on his td throw.

KaDeem wont be coming out this year.. Maybe next year, or then his senior year.. Hopefully we should have sme signs of a line by then..

Let's cool some jets on Nick Foles. Just like when Kolb came in against the Seahawks, there has been no film around the NFL on Foles, and Dallas pretty much just shut down their game plan and played fairly conservative.

The test of a young quarterback only begins in the first game. Let the NFL see him for a few games, and we'll really see what Mr. Foles is made of.

And wasnt a very good second half at that. I dont know the scouting report on Foles but sure left some throws short or hanging yesterday...whats the word on his arm strength?

I think that part of that is the Eagles' system. Their QBs are ALWAYS throwing on the move. Vick has a strong enough arm that the ball gets there--seriously, I've never seen a QB flick his wrist and throw a pass 40+ yards on a rope like Vick still does--but because his feet are never set, it's unpredictable where the ball is going.

QBs with lesser arm strength who can't set their feet are going to float the ball a little bit on the way there.

Any QBs in the draft who are Academic All-Americans?
