For all of you saying you'd fake injuries too, you're a bunch of soft bishes just like the players on this team.

I like this optimism on the O'line but at qb who do we put back there?  I dont think personally Foles is the answer, I like Vick with more protection and better decisions. What do you think?
I think you're a Vick fan first and foremost. Other wise you would know that Foles is a rookie. Unfamiliar with the speed of his recievers. Unaccustomed to the speed of the game. These things take time to adjust to.It will slow down for him as he gets more experience playing. I don't think you can correctly evaluate him on a handful of games.

As for Vick, he has survived this long in the NFL  solely by living off his ability to escape pressure  with his athleticism  throughout his career. That can only serve you for so  long. He is not that 23 yr old who wow'd the NFL fan bases when he entered the league. That is now RG3 and Cam Newton. But even they will need more than just their athleticism to have long careers.  Fans of his need to come to grips with that reality. You need more than a strong arm to sustain a career.

As for the dicision making...I am not sure if you mean Vick, or coaches decision making. If it's the coaches ( if we get new ones), yeah, I'm hopeful  for better decision making. If you mean Vick, not so confident that he can make better decisions. He's been in the NFL for 10 seasons . Has yet to improve in many areas of decision making.

Why Play for this team and this system?
Cuz your a part of it. Your either trying to be a part of the solution or your part of the problem. Play for the guy next to you, your teammate, your brother, etc...It's the mentality of some guys on this team to run when there's adversity and that is a huge huge problem.

See this is what you don't understand, they really believe they are better than everyone else and they're not.

Individually, a lot of the players are at or near the top in their positions when at their best. But when it comes to team play, leadership and communication, this team is severely lacking.

Within this season we've seen the same players that were arguably the best defense in the league through the first 6 games in all major categories go to one of if not the worst defense in the league. That would be because Bowles doesn't know what he's doing...and contrary to popular belief Castillo for the most part did. We've also seen the same players go from one of the top offenses in the league in 2010 to one of the worst offenses in the league. Again what is different? The scheme of the OL along with the injuries on the OL.

I agree totally. I dont think Vick is an elite qb by anymeans right now but I do think that he could keep us as a contender with a good Oline.  With our high draft pick were gonna get I think we should grab the top Tackle, and the rest of the draft work on the defense.  I hate seeing what RG3 is going to be in the future and he sits right in our division as the type of qb Philly traditionally has in the fold.  And I agree about no real QB prospects this year in the draft, bc Matt Barkley is gonna be just like Carson Palmer or Matt Leinhart in the NFL.  A qb with all that talent in skill positions in college, masking his flaws when he becomes a pro, when the playing fields more level.
Vick is a coach killer.  Can't read defenses...change plays.  Doesn't recognize where pressure will come from
when it's lined up right in his face.  He just doesn't have the aptitude you need to play QB in this league.  I don't
want him back at any price.

The Eagles are team where most of the guys hate losing with every fiber in their bodies and then some of the guys just want to do the minimum amount possible to keep on collecting their paycheck.  Just like every other team in the league.
