i would think so...considering mcnabb made andy reid. He wouldnt have half the wins he has if he drafted ricky williams or any of the QBs that were available that year

Iggles Blog:
Since Donovan McNabb came to Philly, he's been benched just once by Andy Reid. This is in contrast to the handful of benchings he's been given by the press and the dozens of sitdowns by a certain segment of quick-hooked fans.
On every occasion, I have defended McNabb. Said there's no way he deserved to sit. Said also that there's no way he would sit.
Things have changed.
This isn't because of Michael Vick. For this team, Vick is a curiosity, not a quarterback. His boom and bust style -- perfectly suited to a handful of Wildcat plays each week -- doesn't work for the Eagles' ball control passing game.
You think it's maddening watching McNabb or Kevin Kolb miss some easy throws? Put Vick behind center and you'll quickly go from "quirky" to "cuckoo's nest."
No, if Mike Vick is ever the starting quarterback for this team, we'll officially have to create a new posting category -- Pitchers And Catchers.
The issue for McNabb has rarely been one...

In my opinion MaNabb is still the MAN!

OOPS McNabb

yea he would and hes a great man for it say what you want about big red but he does have class

I think Reid will go down with or without McNabb. There wont be a rebuild with Reid as coach. Maybe GM

I believe and have thought this for many years, Reid would be a great GM for the EAGLES. No matter what I say about him, I have to admit he can build a great team. I personally don't think he can coach them through a SB.

NIKE: NO ‘CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIP’ WITH VICK
Nike was quick to refute a report from the camp of Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick. After Michael Principe from Vick’s agency, “BEST,” announced that Vick “actually just became a Nike client” and that he had “a new deal with Nike that we’re all very pleased about,” the Oregon-based shoe and apparel company responded.

Forget Vick – you too Nike.
The Washington Post asked me to participate in their NFL blog “The League” for the 2009 season. Below is a recent post I wrote for the site about whether or not Nike should endorse Michael Vick again.
I’m over what Michael Vick did.
That might sound jarring or cruel to some people, but I am – I’m [...]
Vick's deal with Nike is a little difficult to swallow
When
the issue was Michael Vick's(notes) reinstatement to the NFL, I was 100% behind the
fleet-of-foot former dog murderer. It wasn't about forgiving, or even
forgetting. To me, it was an issue of fairness, of believing that ex-cons still
deserve a modicum of respect and of a man's right to go back to the only job
he's ever known.
Now Vick's back on the...
Vick update: Never mind
Nike has just announced that it has not re-signed Michael Vick to a promotional contract, saying it has only agreed to supply Vick with its products, which it does for many other athletes who do not show up in the company's advertising campaigns.
Though that makes a lot more sense, the whole situation seems pretty fishy. Sounds like Nike is trying to have it both ways here.

MAN UP for Kevin Kolb
Look. I have been coming here a long time, and have heard all of the hate on Kevin Kolb. Most of you here never wanted this man to have a chance. Most of you here - felt Kolb was Garbage. Kolb just threw for 300 PLUS yards in 2 game, and was named NFC Player of the week. He also is the first ROOKIE QB to throw 300 Yards in his first 2 games. Kolb litterally tore apart the...
