Get at it  :)

We've lost four straight with Vick under center, and he's been pretty mediocre in that stretch.

949 yards, 6 TDs, 3 INTs, 5 Fumbles (2 lost)

I would say if we lose tomorrow then Foles should definitely start. We would be 3-6 and losers of 5 straight. Unless Andy wants to crash the ship and bring everyone with him, Vick shouldn't even be starting tomorrow.

I would like to see Foles after we are mathmaticly eliminated from the playoffs and not before.  Kids going to take a beating so what's the rush.  At the rate we are losing it should only be another few weeks.  Don't like our chances at all against the Cowboys this weekend.

This season is pretty much over. This team has shown nothing that suggests they can turn it around. Defense has given up and the offense is imploding on itself. Might as well see what we have in Foles and start deciding who to keep for next year and who to get rid of.

I want to see Foles play but with a better Oline

This^^^

Somebody said it in another thread. Put Edwards in if you want Vick out. Don't put the potential future of the franchise behind this Oline of second stringers. When we have JP, Kelce & the Toddfather all back, then maybe we try Foles.

I wouldn't even put Edward in. This line is that bad. If you put Edwards in and he gets hurt you're left with only your possible future QB.

highlights from the Pats PS game...a few things stand out to me...

1.pocket presence: Foles just looks more comfortable sliding around the pocket...his pressure sensor seems to be better honed than Vicks

2. Anticipation: Foles seems to throw the ball where he expects the WR/TE to be..there is one play to Harbor which illustrates this; right as Harbor is about to break, Foles is releasing the ball, both actions are happening in sync as is expected in a timing offense...Vick doesn't seem to be able to do this as well,and often waits until the receiver is static (ie not moving).

3. Mike definitely throws a prettier ball

4. You can almost count the way Foles goes through his reads, in sequence, until he finally checks down.

overall, it's a pretty impressive showing, and again it's against one of the worst pass defenses, but the mechanics of how Foles performs is impressive.

Keep the rain gear, you're gonna need it when the Nicktards find out how bad Foles really is.

Season is pretty much over if we lose sunday. Not if we finish 10-6 and get on a nice run but keep Vick in at QB  till after the season. Start Foles once we get a new coach next year.

Since the Minnesota game in 2010 when defenses finally figured out Vick he has only managed SIX games of more than 25 points since then. Vick has no legit shot, outside of the Eagles putting together an 85' Bears type defense, to ever win a Super Bowl. No reason to keep him around anymore.

Vick, unless you want our possible future QB to get murdered.
