I think the second year is a team option.
It will be very interesting to see how they actually use him.

Really so you think the Eagles signed Vick to a 2yr contract for approx 6.6Mill for him to just sit on the bench. The only way Vick doesnt startby atleast week 11 is if the Eagles have a 8-2 record bye week withstanding.

Backup QBs usually have those contracts (some even more) though Nostra, so I doubt it means anything....

Lets be real, Vick won't start. But if Mcnabb dooes not play well, you will see Vick on the field.

If Vick shows promise, I believe they'll use him as trade bait next year....

and McNabb just restructured his contract to make 24 million over the next 2 years...on top of it all he's coming off one of his best seasonsas a pro. Vick is NO threat to McNabb. Let's see if Vick can even beat out Kevin Kolb at this point. That is where the QB battle is. You're foolishif you honestly think Vick is going to be starting by week 11 this year.
*and for what it's worth Todd Collins makes 3 mil a year to sit on the bench....

You know McNabb just signed an extension this year, right?? The Eagles have HEAVILY invested too much into him to just say screw it and insertVick as the starter

Think guys. Last time McNabb got hurt he was doing what? Rolling out of the pocket trying to escape the defense aka.......Mike Vicks specialty......Theyregonna let Vick do all the potential option/running plays while McNabb sits in the pocket and beams it..In fact, theyre potentially the same exact player interms of ability minus Vicks accuracy..so you have even more of a headache as a defense because you don't know what you're facing play after play..Goodpickup by the Eagles..

I like the move for the Eagles.. Other teams are gonna wonder why they didn't pull the trigger earlier..
It's really a win win if you think about it besides the PR hit you take, if Vick can make a few big plays
for you a game and stays outta trouble he could enhance your team tremendously..

Do Philly cats even care? These guys like to see themselves as tough guys so I really don't see them having a problem embracing dude...not sure though...

Just because Mike Vick was signed on a 2 year contract for 1.6 mill his first season doesn't mean he won't have his opportunity to earn it....
If anything I think it creates opportunity for the offense to put Vick into a wildcat formation to mix things up a little. McNabb is the quarterback of thatteam and will be as long as he stays healthy.
I just think this decision keeps Vick in the fold of a very competitive divison and gives him opportunity to even take a few snaps to mix things up. From afootball standpoint, this is as interesting as it gets....
Whether this works out or not is anyone's guess at this point. But it will make the season very intriguing. We'll see if Vick's still gotit...:>

Good to see MV get his 2nd chance in the league.. Hopefully he stays focused and realizes that it really is a blessing to get this second opportunity...
I can't wait for the madden update

LOL.
Obviously Vick is the more talented of the two....but with Vick's time away from football, and Kolb's familiarity with Reid'soffense....I don't see why (at this point) Kolb couldn't beat him out for the #2.....Even w. Kolb listed as the #2, I still think Vick would get morePT than him in a gimmick role. That's all I'm saying...
