Philadelphia Eagles: Mike Kafka takes a commanding lead in the battle for backup QB
The Philadelphia Eagles just completed their first organized team activities (OTAs) of the 2012 offseason and are preparing for their second this week. The practices are, as head coach Andy Reid says, an opportunity for the team to “knock off some of the rust” accumulated from the offseason and provide an early glimpse into who may be a factor during the season.

Mike Kafka is “running away” with Eagles’ backup quarterback job
A day after it was reported that Mike Kafka has noticeably improved arm strength in OTAs for the Eagles, it is being reported by the Courier-Post that Kafka is “running away” with the Eagles’ backup quarterback job.

Mike Kafka impressing for Eagles in OTAs
Though the Eagles used a 3rd round pick on Nick Foles, the organization sees him as more of a developmental quarterback of the future than someone they want to play this year.

Eagles' QB situation: Michael Vick and …?
The Philadelphia Eagles were looking for Michael Vick to give them an encore of his 2010 performance but the Eagles’ super-talented quarterback was not able to deliver. It was not for a lack of trying though. As a matter of fact Vick could be accused of trying to do too much last season.
