Should Nick Foles continue to throw the ball for Philly?

Okay, I have nothing against Vick but I simply do not believe he is the guy that is going to take the Eagles to the promise land.

He did not have what it takes when he was in his prime and he is past that point now.

This last game when Vick had to leave the game and Foles came in, Foles started throwing one completion after the next.

I don't know if Foles will become a Super Bowl QB but he will never become one if he is sitting on the bench. And Vick is not getting any younger. So lets start breaking Foles in.

Do you agree?

    Michael Vick will stay the starter for political reasons in football, even tho Nick Foles has the better arm. Yes I agree it's time for Eagles to put one of the younger quarterbacks that rely on their Arms and not their Legs to win the game. Everyone knows running quarterbacks don't win Super Bowls and they don't get there either.

    I don't consider Kaepernick a running qb even tho he runs at times because Kaepernick last year had a gunslinger of an arm. A quarterback shouldn't have to run all the time obviously and thats why Michael Vick is made out of glass. He is very injury prone because running qb's get injured by their opponents and sometimes even by themselves.

    Actually, it depends on his work ethic during every offseason. If Nick Foles works hard and performs very well in practice every day, he will greatly improve his chances of earning the starting quarterback position for the Philadelphia Eagles in the future.

    He should, even though he's not a great fit for that offensive scheme. Vick is only a short term QB there anyway, as he's only under contract for this season. Foles performs well this upcoming weekend, my guess is that he remains the starter.

    So as to not upset south Philadelphia, Vick will be the starter until he either becomes an ex-Eagle, or dies, whichever is first.
