I haven't even gotten a chance to watch a full game he's played, but since he's been getting the starts the Eagles have actually been moving towards a solid season and dude's putting up ridiculous numbers. Obviously,playing in an up-tempo system is going to inflate stats, but what he's done has certainly been impressive. What do you guys make of him moving forward?

same with any other unproven (longterm) qb..he very well could be just a product of/flash in the pan because of the nfl rules of the day. doesnt mean hes not good, but i kinda discount any crazy numbers these days - they just dont stack up to when qbs and wrs could actually get clobbered over the middle or decapitated in the pocket. wont even get into what they call pass interference now.

5 td game today = 3 td game years ago

My prediction is that either by the end of the year or next year he'll be figured out & look hella pedestrian again. He has been on a tear though; can't take that away from him & the Eagles are winning games.

But who really knows. Some players need that right situation. He looked pretty shitty in Reid's system. Kelly does something that works for him.

i remember Aaron Brooks and Patrick Ramsey once looked like future star QB's too

with that said Foles really is impressive so far but let's wait until he plays real defenses

Vick is a shell of himself, he'd be lucky to start again period. Don't see him sticking with the Eagles.

I'm not sure if Vick can be humble and adult enough to stick with the Eagles as a backup.

Maybe he can garner a 4th round pick with some other team in need.
