Michael Vick- Well most Eagles fans expected him to be gone with Andy Reid after a awful and disastrous 4-12 year for Vick and the Eagles. Vick did have 4 of his 5 Lineman out for the year well Watkins counts in my opinion but he just simply could not stop turning over the ball. I'm still waiting for that 2010 magic to come back but I just don't see it happening. The good for Vick is he fits the read option offense Chip Kelly should be sprinkling in on the offense. His mobility and big arm fits great but the durability and turnovers are a major concern. If the O-Line along with 4th overall pick Lane Johnson can thrive and stay healthy well Vick has the weapons so no excuses. According to Jeremy Maclin and Lesean McCoy it looks like Vick is the front runner right now for the job but if he struggles or gets hurt early in the year well we might just not see him if Foles, Barkley or Dixon go off which I expect to happen at some time. I still think there is something left in Vick and this is the year to break that old Michael Vick out and if he doesn't work out well Chip Kelly won't hesitate to pull him. Predicted Record if Vick starts all 16 Games- 9-7
Nick Foles- The second year player did some good things last year in place for Vick but only notched one win and just didn't in my eyes have that "It" factor. He has a big arm and is smart in the pocket but I just don't see the fit in Kelly's offense. I think he is at the biggest risk to be cut if he doesn't win the starting job. For his case in starting if he impresses in the preseason like he did last year and in training camp he could upend Vick or Dixon or Barkley. Most analyst think its up between Foles and Vick which is probably the case and not saying I wouldn't like to see what the kid has because I do he only played a couple games and was in a disastrous situation that he got thrown into but he just doesn't wow me in any way except for his maturity which tended to be the theme for last years QBs which was older than they really were maturity wise. We could see next year if things don't work with Vick a two QB battle with Barkley and Foles for our future QB which I do see Dixon Barkley or Foles as the guy in my opinion.
Predicted Record if Foles starts all 16 Games- 7-9
Dennis Dixon- The Eagles signed Dixon in the off season which to me was the smartest move they could have did. The former Oregon Duck played for Coach Chip Kelly back in 2008 and is the dark horse for the starting job. His read option ability and knowledge of the offense should already give him an advantage. He has to get his mechanics down but his arm is strong and has a high football IQ. I really want to see what this guy can do with only 3 starts and a 2-1 record he proved he can win in this league unlike Foles and Barkley even though Barkley hasn't played of course. Dixon is a long shot to start but if he can light it up in the preseason, Chip Kelly isn't afraid to put the best guy in. He and Foles are the two who are battling for a roster spot because if he doesn't win the job they will put him on the practice squad and keep Foles as the two because Barkley and Vick to me are a lock to make the team even though to me Vick should not be a lock. Dixon is getting the biggest shot to start and I am rooting for him to take full advantage of the biggest shot in his football career. Predicted Record if Dixon starts all 16 Games- 8-8
Matt Barkley- The Rookie probably has the second longest shot to start come Week 1 (Sorry GJ Kinnie) but I can see him getting on the field this year. If he doesn't win the job I think he is #3 on the roster but hey Rookies have success in their first year and Barkley is NFL ready and could be our QB of the future. We completely stole him in the 4th rd and if he can impress in the preseason like all the QBS he has a legit shot. People are saying he doesn't fit in Kelly's system well unlike Foles, Barkley has some mobility and is good at the no huddle fast paced offense. The rookie will for sure get a shot next year but I just don't see him winning it this year but if he gets on the field he may just stay there for the next seasons to come if of course he gets more than 1 win unlike Foles which I think hurts Foles significantly. Predicted Record if Barkley Starts all 16 Games- 6-10
GJ Kinnie- Well Kinnie you've made it this far.....I'm sorry but I just don't think you have a good shot. Impressive AFL career but that's where you will thrive. Predicted Record if Kinnie Starts all 16 Games- 3-13
MY PREDICTION FOR STARTER: DENNIS DIXON #Dixon4Starter
