Michael Vick has been listed as probable and is expected to start when the Philadelphia Eagles host the New York Giants on Sunday.
Though Charles Barkley and Michael Vick played different sports, with different degrees of success in Philadelphia, they will both go down in Philadelphia sports history together in one particular category: lightning rods.
Cam Newton is playing some of the best football of his career, and the surging Carolina Panthers are back over .500 for the first time in five years.
The Eagles aren't the best team in the NFL. They're not even top 15 (probably). Chip Kelly may end up being a great coach, or he may be a failure. None of these things are successes just yet.
Almost everyone believes Michael Vick will start at quarterback for the Eagles on Sunday, but Chip Kelly isn't ready to say it yet.
Many have said that the quarterback of the future for the Eagles is not currently on the roster. Nick Foles' performance against the Cowboys may have driven that point home even further. The official odds agree with the public sentiment.
Confession time: I was worried about my pick last week. For those who missed it, I had the Chargers on the road in Jacksonville. At the time, I was concerned about the Chargers' inconsistent play (they hadn't won back-to-back games), their short week combined with a trip across the country and a puzzling seven-point spread.
A veteran Philadelphia Eagles Offensive Lineman is talking to Eyewitness News about being the victim of a big theft.
The Eagles and Giants will meet for the second time this month on Sunday, and both teams are in dire need of a victory.
There was at least one fan in Philadelphia that left Lincoln Financial Field happy on Sunday, Phillies outfielder Domonic Brown.
The 94WIP Morning Show decides that Joe Banner is the one man most to blame for the sad state of Philadelphia sports.
Week 7 around the NFL was as brutal as ever, and led to a ton of injuries. With two starting QBs and various other fantasy studs now out, the way you react could end up shaping your season. We at RotoAnalysis are breaking down some of the key situations and what you can do as an owner to improve your team the rest of the way.
The struggles on Sunday have once again sparked the debate on where the quarterback situation is heading in Philadelphia. Vick is certainly not going to be a part of the long-term equation as he ages and continues to show he cannot play a full season. The one name that pops up often is Texas A&M's Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Johnny Manziel. I am here to tell you to just stop considering that option, because it is not going to be worth it with a high draft pick.
While all signs point towards Michael Vick starting against the Giants on Sunday, the Eagles quarterback wasn't about to make any guarantees.
The quarterback wheel goes round and round, and will apparently land on Michael Vick on Sunday.
Short on healthy quarterbacks, the Eagles are bringing back a familiar face. Well, sort of familiar.
Most of the talk about the Eagles ugly, 17-3 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, has been about the quarterback. Nick Foles was by all accounts, terrible, missing receivers, and often times holding the ball far too long. Foles was inaccurate and ineffective.
Nobody would have expected that Eli Manning and the Giants would be getting their first win in late October, but that is what happened this season. The Giants beat the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night and look for revenge against rival Eagles this Sunday.
With six losses on their resume, the New York Giants could have been wondering if they would ever win a game this season.

According to a national poll, Michael Vick is the most disliked player in the NFL.
Eagles fans get a bad rap, and probably rightly so in a lot of circumstances. But we're continually reminded that Philadelphia fans aren't the only ones that are misbehaving.
Nick Foles' stay atop the mountain of Philadelphia sports was a short one. After making people believe he should be the quarterback of the future after his performance against the Tampa Bay Bucs, he made those same people believe he shouldn't start again this year.
This one stings. The Eagles offense folded against a Cowboys defense that was vulnerable and incapable of taking advantage of a nice game put in by the defense.
