If Kolb is so good why isnt HE starting?

Well it wasn't Vicks fault they were tanking against the future Super Bowl Winners. Plus it is bad practice to pull a QB in replace for the back up when you are trailing and it is a play off game. You have the throw the ball around a lot more when you are trailing and to throw in a new QB in the 2nd half of the game just has INTERCEPTION all over it considering he doesn't have a feel for the defense. He was infact the starter and then while he was injured and Vick took over, Vick capitalized on that oppurtunity by dominating offenses, they temporarily went back to Kolb being the starter when he was healthy but then changed their minds, probably from pressure from the fans and players (maybe even coach) and because it looks bad punishing remarkedably high sucess via benching. The only reason why they are willing to trade Kolb isn't more about the money/cap room but because Kolb clearly shows that he wants to be the starter next year wherever he goes. The Eagles aren't going to trade Vick because he was the reason they were in the playoffs, that and despite his higher success, he would be valued at the same level as Kolb (or less) considering his age, style of play, and the controversy he brings with him.
