The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... Eagles RB LeSean McCoy is ready to declare a winner of the team’s quarterback competition between Geno Smith and Vick. “He’s going to be the Jets’ starting quarterback,” McCoy said of Vick. “He’s way better than Geno Smith. Way better. That’s no contest.”
Diehards Line:McCoy also believes Vick would still be the starter in Philly if he hadn’t gotten injured last year. As PFT's Mike Florio points out, McCoy misses the fact that Vick gets injured pretty much every year. Last year, his replacement, Nick Foles, was good enough to keep Vick on the bench after he healed. This year, the ultimate question for Vick will be whether, once he’s inevitably injured, Smith will be able to play well enough to claim the job.
