    The Eagles can't really do anything unless Vick plays out of his mind and the Eagles jump out to a big lead. That defense just can't line up in base and stop people. They have their DEs lined up crazy-wide to rush the passer, but they have neither the DTs nor the LBs to make that work against the run, and they have good CBs but they just don't have safeties to hold up in pass defense unless pressure gets there.

    The Eagles script is pretty much "Jump out to a big lead because Vick plays awesome, and then play nickel and rush the passer" I don't think things turn out well insofar as they deviate from that script.

    Not quite the right thread to bump...but what happens now, with Vick likely out for at least a while? Can this team hold it together on offense?

    Interesting that Kafka, who is supposed to be 3rd string, came in instead of VY. Is he the actual back up QB, and will get the call if Vick can't start? Why is VY designated #2 then? Is there a situation they might want to bring him in for? This could also be an ego thing, we know he has a fragile one - maybe if they put him 3rd on the depth chart he would sulk.

    I think Young is nursing an injury.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    It's a long road, fellas. To early to say Vick is this or that, or this team's done. We learned that last year after the Pack lost to Detroit.

    Actually, I think he's just still too busy changing the game from the bench to be bothered with playing football.

    His brain might be hurting having to learn a new system.
