Thinking that Kolb will fold is a bit presumptuous. Watch his highlights from weeks 2 and 3 last season there a few things to note.

Reid did a great job with his playcalling doing a lot of 3 step and fire plays. Kolb does a great job with his decision making minus a couple bad ones against the Saints. What is hard to tell from the videos is what he does with pressure in his face. I saw only one play where he got hit while throwing and it was a quick slant to Desean Jackson who then broke smoe crappy tackling by the Chiefs and took it to the house. So as dfoster stated, not much info on how he is going to handle pressure, if we can give it. The Eagles offensive line kept Kolb clean and gave him all day in the pocket. So, if we can't get to him, and we are giving up the short underneath stuff all day, it's going to come down to physical play by the corners and sure tackling by the entire secondary. With the team speed the Eagles have, it could be a long day for Shields and Burnett who are going to be playing against speed they have never witnessed in a game before.

All in all, what we do know is if Kolb is given time he is accurate and makes good decisions. Small sample size for sure, but can't deny the proof within that sample.

I think I saw at least 1 of the eagles games with kolb QBing - he did look impressive.
I remember seeing him and thinking wish we had a backup like him. Also thought of leinheart (spelling) from arizona this way too.

I still think we take it to them; we have alot of hype and energy and most of our vets expect us to make a strong play off run this year.

Love this tidbit:

Technically, the Minnesota Vikings' loss to the New Orleans Saints lifted the Lions out of last place in the NFC North for the first time since December 2007.

    Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.
    Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.
