Dumb Beat Writers

DUMB Eagles beat reporters for the Inquirer? Why is this a riddle? Detmer was the "#2" behind McNabb in 2005 when he went down even though McMahon was really Reid's #2 backup (Note, McMahon started the rest of the season's games that year). That's because Detmer was valuable on special teams in any one game and they didn't want to lose that by naming McMahon an active player. In the event DMac couldn't start the NEXT game, then McMahon was the #1 and Detmer was still the #2.

Is it really that hard to figure out? Vick will be the #2, DMac the #1. If DMac goes down in a game, that means Vick will run the remainder of the game - or that Kolb could be activated if AR really desired at that point to shelve Vick (note, in 2005, McMahon was actually activated for the last drive to come in as the #3 QB after McNabb went down). Good gracious, this writer is stoopid. Oh, and THREE whopping years of Kolb learning the offense vs. Vick actually running it as a starter for how many years in Atlanta in real live games? C'mon, is Kolb really that much more familiar with the Eagles version of the WCO than Vick would be after playing in a WCO in ATL?

How do people like that get off with writing jobs? This doesn't seem like rocket science to me.
