Starting Vick

Helps vick
Helps Andy Ried win last game
Helps Lurie because Eagles end on a win

It does nothing for SB aspirations!

We know what Vick offers
We know AR is gone
We know the season is over. A win just pushes us back 4 picks n the draft.

The draft is our future.  Edwards can manage the game in which you test existing young players for the future.

Times not Andy's.

Times for the youger guys and draft

How does multiple turnovers help Reid win last game?

I dislike Vick but he always shows up against the Giants as do the rest of the team.

The Giants will playing for their playoff lives in this game.  The Eagles cant phone the game in against the Giants by playing Trent Edwards.  Vick represents the best option to be competitive in this contest against a hated division rival.

The Eagles are losers this year. Play the younger guys for very important experience. Turn the page and prep for next year.

Are you one of those guys that thinks every kid deserves a trophy? A win is not a win if you don't have the potential to make the playoffs and further possibility of winning a  championship.

If SB is not an option then building towards next years success should be the focus. vick does not move toward that goal.

As long as AR leaves with a hoagie shoved up his shoot, I could care less who starts.

Don't worry, Vick will probably get pounded by Osi because AR will call long-developing pass plays with a ****ty O-line, and Edwards will have to start anyway.

Like it matters.  Are we all forgetting who will be running the draft?  Howie roseman could lake a number one pick with Payton Manning waiting for him and screw it up - HE'S THAT DUMB.  ANother from the Lurie school of trying to be smarter thna everyone else and ultimitly looking like a baffoon and then pointing the finger.

I will HATE to see us lose on sunday, but if Im going to be honest, I would rather be assured of a top 5 pick if we lose compared to a pick low as #9 with a win IMO.

Hell if we lose and Jacksonville wins theres a chance we could actually land the#2 pick and put ourselfs in perfect position to draft Jarvis Jones the de/olb from Georgia. Or we could just trade down 3-4 slots and pick up another #2 and then draft Manti Teo

you have no commitment to winning a super bowl.

If Howie is back...then Lurie isn't committed to winning because there's no way he gives you the best chance

Don't worry. Vick will find a way to lose the game.
