"We did go with Jeff Garcia," Reid said . "It was either with Jeff or A.J. (Feeley). A.J. ended up going to Carolina and signed with them, that's a long-term deal for him. Jeff's going to come on board with us for who knows how long here.

"We're lucky that Jeff was available. Someone who knows the offense, has been very, very successful in the offense, and can come in and also be a positive influence for Kevin Kolb and everyone else in the locker room."

"It's a unique situation because Michael (Vick) is suspended for a week and Donovan's banged up. So we don't know how long Donovan's going to be and at the same time we need a second quarterback in there if needed this weekend."

I read the same thing into that quote

Although “second” doesn’t necessarily mean “second string,” that’s how I took it.

I think McNabb is going to want to play Sunday. The real question is whether they’ll hold him back.

Still waiting for the Eagles to Bring It Home For Jerome

Biggest Question

is what number is he going to wear? Vick already has 7.

(Sorry, I’m a uni geek and these things are important to me).
