    All the mystery surrounding Michael Vick, the football player, has allowed even coach Andy Reid to have some fun. Considering that it's been more than two years, and that the Eagles don't necessarily want to show off everything they may use Vick for, the game plan should be fairly vanilla, right? "You never know," Reid said. The coach held a straight face while reporters laughed, then cracked a smile before he corrected himself. "Just some basic stuff," he said. "That's all we're going to do." "I think everybody is, including, most of all, himself," Reid said. "I think he wants to get in and play again, so we'll see how that goes. I can't tell you right now how much he's going to play. "He's shooting to play this game, and we'll see how he does this week and how he'll feel the closer we get to the game."

    I still want to know what the plan is. Do you keep the future in Kolb, the reliable back-up in Feely, or the soup king McNabb. Having four QB's is stupid and if they plan on using Vick as anything other than QB he has to be listed as something else.

    He cant be listed as anything else with the #7. I think AJ might be on his way out we could always trade him back to the dolpins :icon_cheesygrin:

    Wow now that makes sense. Ummm yea he can be listed as something else. Look at Devin Hester but good try. If Vick is listed as a QB and is not #2, if he gets brought into the game then both McNabb and who ever is the back-up can't re enter the game.

    No he cant they were talking about it on eagles live. There is no receiver with a single digit number he would have to change his number to move. Its some weird rule i dont get it but thats what they said.

    Ok dude. Believe what you want, but once his number is official and he changes his position he doesn't have to change his number due to the cost of paying to have his jersey changed by I believe Reebok.

    He can be used on the field any way they want as WR RB qb but as long as hes number 7 he has to be LISTED as a QB. RB,WR,TE are not aloud single digit numbers. In college its allowed look at reggie bush he was 5 and in the nfl he wouldent be able to play with the number 5.
