I'm talking career. I don't count one-hit or one-year wonders when evaluating best players ever on a particular team. If that were the case, Doyle Alexander might rank as the greatest pitcher the Tigers ever had.

yeah they are two totally seperate arguments.. Obviously McNabb's career has been much better than Shawn Andrews.

Not too many players get to spend 11 years with the same team though...

If Van Brocklin had played for them for 11 years you would have agreed with me from the start..

From Brent Celek:

"They did the right thing," Celek said. "They got faith in Kolb, and I'll tell ya what, I think Kolb is gonna be one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL in years to come. I hate hearing people say that we're rebuilding right now cause we got a lot of good players on our team and we're gonna win a lot of games this year.

"The people in the front office and coach Reid have seen Kevin's development over the last three years, and they feel it's time. And I'll tell ya what, a lot of guys on the team feel the exact same way. We're ready to rally behind him and get this thing going."

D-Jax:

"It was time for a change" & "It just feels like some new energy is coming around and guys are pumped up," he said. "I just heard Maclin say that he's ready to get the season started right now. We're fired up and ready to go."

Maclin -

"The guys upstairs will do some stuff to help Kevin and take advantage of his strengths," Maclin said. "But he can make every throw on the field. We saw that and we know he can do that. Me and DeSean can stretch the field. So we're not going to eliminate [the deep pass] from the game plan.

"Kevin knows everybody's assignment on every given play. I'm not saying Donovan didn't. But it's remarkable that a guy who hasn't played that much knows everything, hands-down. I'm really looking forward to working with him."


From Philly.com-

Kolb was told Monday that fans said they would give him a three-game grace period.

"Although you say three," Kolb said, "one's enough for me."





That's MY quarterback!!!!!!!!!

Come on, what are Maclin or Celek going to say? "Aw, we miss Donovan, boo hoo!" Of course not. And Kevin Kolb is going to be just fine, of that I have no doubt.
