Dear Kevin Kolb
A picture is worth a thousand words...
There's nothing like getting the rug pulled out from under you, only to have it stuffed under you again as you're trying to get up. In fact, no one should know that more than you Kevin. Despite having a solid, but average 2009 campaign, 'winning' the Philadelphia Eagles starting QB position in training camp, and then losing it to injury, Kevin, you're going to have another chance behind center, and that is sad.

Kevin this, sadly, is not your team. Michael Vick was destined to be the starter from the minute last season ended. That Andy Reid awarded it to you from the beginning of training camp was a questionable move, considering how unimpressive you looked last year. Now that Vick is injured for the foreseeable future, Consider this, Kevin and I will try to put this nicely: You've played in 2 games this season, and in both, your presence as the QB was shaky at best. Maybe you know the plays. Maybe you're friends with the O-Linemen or play jokes on LeSean from time to time. On the field, that doesn't matter.
When Vick was in the game, there was still and unpredictable nature to the way the offense ran, but it all seemed to mesh together and the Eagles were cruising. When you took the field, there was little if any rhythm or jump to the offense.

It was as if you didn't want to make a play and were trying not to score. To be honest, the Redskins did not have that game definitely won until late in the 4th quarter. You being in the game didn't elevate the team like
