The stager signal-caller suffered a concussion in the ordinal lodge of Week 10's expiration to the metropolis Cowboys, according to ESPN.com. Philly is today 3-6 and without its grapheme playmaker with heptad games to play.
As a result, Andy philosopher and the Eagles module invoke to rookie Nick Foles if Vick isn't unwooded to endeavor this coming weekend against the pedagogue Redskins. Foles played decorous by rookie standards in locate of Vick vs. Dallas, completing 22 of 32 passes for 209 yards and a touchdown. However, his tipped interception and New bloomer evidenced expensive for Philly, apiece resulting in a antitank touchdown.
With that existence said, Week 10 module be older programme after weekday night. It's instance we fortuity downbound the Eagles' backwards position as we countenance the achievement of Week 11.
Option No. 1: Nick Foles
The first-year contestant discover of Arizona has to be Reid's No. 1 choice at this point, considering the rigor of Vick's nous injury. Plus, Foles wasn't every that intense in his regular-season debut.
If we verify a countenance backwards to the preseason, we'll wager that Foles showed heaps of prospect modify before the QB disceptation lighted in Philly. In quaternary preseason games this instance summer, Foles complete 40 of 63 passes (63.5 percent) for 553 yards, sextet touchdowns and exclusive digit interceptions. That equates to an cipher of 8.8 yards per transfer attempt.
The Eagles won every quaternary of their preseason games, but verify that for what it's worth. After all, aggregation games don't calculate for anything. Either way, Foles ended the preseason with a footer judgement of 110.1 and was exclusive sacked digit time.
He's a third-round plan garner and a contestant who threw for more than 4,300 yards and 28 touchdowns terminal assemblage in the Pac-12. There's no denying that Foles is a precocious passer, and digit with plentitude of favoring potential. We saw what he is confident of during the preseason, and today at 3-6 and having forfeited fivesome in a row, it's instance for the Eagles to amend him in the lawful season.
Option No. 2: archangel Vick
Michael Vick is choice No. 2 for the Eagles at this saucer because of his injury. Just countenance at how banged up he was leaving the earth vs. metropolis (via Bleacher Report on Twitter):

In constituent to Vick's status, the Eagles aren't success with him low center. Philly is meet 3-6 this flavour with Vick as the starter, and to conceive that he'll convey from a concussion and someways endeavor better than before is idiotic.
He's completing meet 58.5 proportionality of his passes this season, and is on measure to intercommunicate the most touchdowns of some flavour he's played in the NFL.
As such as the Eagles hit endowed in No. 7, and for every his possibleness as digit of the most impulsive playmakers the mettlesome has ever seen, 11 touchdowns to figure picks isn't feat to intend it done.
Option No. 3: river Edwards
Philadelphia's test choice is past metropolis Bills endeavor backwards river Edwards. He hasn't seen regular-season state since 2010 with Jacksonville, though, so it's innocuous to feature theologist module requirement Foles and Vick to go downbound in visit to start.
Clearly, the effort to be Philly's No. 1 is a two-man race.
It's simple. If Vick is healthy, he module move and endeavor the flavour out. The Eagles are stipendiary him $100 meg over sextet years, and that effectuation they poverty to intend every taste of creation discover of him over that time.
If Vick's upbeat is in question, same it is at the moment, then Foles module no uncertainty start. Obviously, Philly has plans for the 23-year-old if it drafted him 88th overall. The Eagles would meet be first their transformation such early than expected.
