Eagles - Lions Preview


The big question all week has been who will get the start? Will it be young Kevin Kolb who has a concussion and barely through for 20 yards last week? Or will it be explosive Michael Vick who has the ability to make plays with his arm and legs, and can make this offense one of the most dangerous in the NFL? To me the decision is easy, start Vick and watch him do work. He showed last Sunday why he was a 3 time pro bowler as he confused the Packers defense throughout the second half. As much as I want Vick to start, I am in no way shape or form jumping off the Kevin Kolb band wagon. You saw what he did last year in his 2 starts, and having to face one of the best teams in the NFL in your first official start as new quarterback is by no means an easy task. But this weekend, this Sunday, you have to give the start to Vick, I am pleading with you Andy. Let Kolb sit out a week and get healthy, and watch one of the most dangerous players in the NFL run all over the Lions defense. And for all you Vick-haters out there, please grow up. I'm not saying that what Vick did to dogs is ok, I am simply saying that he went to jail, paid the price, and sincerely apologized for his horrific actions. If you still can't forgive him then you have issues. This Sunday is going to be so exciting because Vick is going to put his past behind him, and show the nation and the whole world, that he is still one of the best players in the league. I can't wait to see what he does, and I just hope that Andy makes the right decision.
