Last week, there wasn't a quarterback controversy, there was a quarterback disagreement. There was a quarterback conversation. This week, we have a full-on, overdrive, out of control, quarterback controversy baby!
Nick Foles' third touchdown pass early in the fourth quarter sealed what had been a taut game in an Eagles' 31-20 victory over the winless Buccaneers on Sunday.
94WIP Afternoon host Glen Macnow took over the stations Twitter account for the Eagles game on Sunday at Tampa Bay against the Bucs.
Rookie cornerback Johnthan Banks, the third Tampa Bay player diagnosed with MRSA, has been cleared to play Sunday in the Buccaneers' game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
The NFLPA could advise that the Eagles and Bucs postpone their game Sunday pending an MRSA containment report, according to a report.
While Chip Kelly says Michael Vick is day to day, and Vick says his condition is improving, it still seems unlikely he will start on Sunday against the Bucs. With a capable backup in Nick Foles, and the ability to run a necessity, giving his strained hamstring another week to heal would be the most likely option.
The 94WIP Morning Show named their Winners and Weasels for the week of October 11th, 2013.
Vick was limited in practices all week, but head coach Chip Kelly has decided to hold off on making a call on his starting quarterback. It is likely Nick Foles will get the start against the Bucs, after replacing the injured Vick in the win over the Giants.
As the Eagles get ready to face the Buccaneers in Tampa, Vick continues to recover from a hamstring injury. While most believe Vick won't be ready to play on Sunday, he says he is still hopeful he will be able to take the field.
For five weeks I've been walking on eggshells around the NFL schedule trying to avoid the landmine game that would blow me out of the 94WIP Suicide Pool.
Put this one in the category of, "things that might make the internet break in Philadelphia."
Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson has been named NFC Offensive Player Of The Week for his performance in the Eagles 36-21 win over the New York Giants.
DeSean Jackson expects to be challenged by Bucs cornerback Darrelle Revis on Sunday. DeSean Jackson expects to get the best of that matchup.
Mike Vick is listed as day-to-day, the team confirmed Monday, but having an option like Foles ready to go shows why the Eagles did not feel a need to make any trades during the preseason involving the loser of the quarterback competition.
When it comes down to it, breakout players end up deciding the fate of most fantasy football leagues. Who was able to snag them first? Who found that diamond in the rough? These players end up swinging the balance of the league and can carry a team to a championship
