    Chip Kelly ended any remaining drama about this week's quarterback decision Wednesday morning, saying Nick Foles will start for Philadelphia's game in Oakland.

    After that, Kelly would not entertain questions about who would be the Eagles' starting quarterback moving forward, if Michael Vick and Foles actually were healthy at the same time.

    "Let me ask you a serious question," Kelly said. "How many times are you going to ask me that same question? And in how many ways are you going to go about it. ... The ideal world, Mike's the healthiest in the world, Nick's the healthiest in the world, Matt's the healthiest in the world. At that point in time, we'll have that conversation."

    DaBears22's Take: Foles is the man for Philly against Oakland. Haven't seen any recent reports on Vick's health, his hamstring must still be bad. With Pryor coming on strong lately and the Eagles struggling to score points, this could be a tough game for Philly.

    Philly is a mess right now. Early on we could tell the defense had issues, but the offense put enough points and pressure on the other team that it didn't matter as much. Now that the offense can't score, the hole is getting deeper and deeper.
