Vick is still hurt, So it looks like Young is back at starter for the Birds

Today, we found out that Eagles starting QB Mike Vick will not be able to play for a second straight week due to his injured ribs. This was all according to a league source.


So Vince Young will get the start again, but this week it will be against Tom Brady and those New England Patriots. The Patriots are coming off a 34-3 win vs the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football. The Eagles; on the other hand, are coming off a 17-10 win vs the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football. 


In that game, Vince Young went 6 for 7 for 68 yards on the game winning 18 play drive and connected with WR Riley Cooper for the game winning TD. For the Eagles to have a chance in this game, they have to let Young manage the game, keep giving the ball to RB LeSean McCoy, and finally the defense has to play with tenacity.
