Reid: Kolb will start on Sunday

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Michael Vick is more likely to begin the game at wide receiver than quarterback this week.

Eagles coach Andy Reid said Kevin Kolb will be the starting quarterback at Jacksonville on Sunday, despite a pair of impressive performances by Vick.

Kolb has been cleared to practice after missing the second half of a season-opening loss to Green Bay and Sunday's win over Detroit because of a concussion. So he'll start unless he has a setback this week.

Vick still will play in Philadelphia's version of the wildcat offense. In the first play of the season, he lined up as a receiver.

"I think it's a beautiful situation," Reid said Monday. "I look at it a lot differently than other people look at it. I've got two quarterbacks that can play at a very important position. I'm a happy guy about it. There are a lot of teams that don't have good quarterbacks, ones that they feel like they can win with, and I feel like we can with both of those guys."

Hmmm. Should be an interesting week, if Kolb does not win next weekend.

2. ...

9-0, Saints after one quarter. Sounds like what the 49ers are facing.

3. Why should I worry about the 49ers losing?

It's so much more fun to watch the Cowboys lose.

5. The Cardinals should be phoning the Eagles

Trying to get a QB. I'm getting close to giving up on Derek Anderson.
