| (MySportsbook) - All eyes at Lincoln Financial Field will be on the player wearing uniform number seven this Sunday afternoon, when Michael Vick returns to the NFL for the Philadelphia Eagles' home contest against the Kansas City Chiefs. Vick, who spent 18 months at a federal penitentiary after pleading guilty to dogfighting allegations, was signed by the Eagles on Aug. 13th and appeared in the team's final two preseason games in a variety of different positions. As part of Vick's conditional reinstatement to t |

| Philadelphia, PA (MySportsbook) - Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, while running back Brian Westbrook is questionable. McNabb did not practice all week, including Friday, and continues to suffer from a fractured rib he sustained in the season-opening win over Carolina. Kevin Kolb started at quarterback in last Sunday's loss to New Orleans and would be slated to start again should McNabb miss the contest. Jeff Garcia and Michael Vick, back |

| ILADELPHIA (AP) -Donovan McNabb is still not able to practice and it appears unlikely he will play this week. McNabb, who suffered a broken rib in a season-opening win over the Carolina Panthers, is expected to miss his second straight game as the Philadelphia Eagles (1-1) meet the Kansas City Chiefs (0-2) at Lincoln Financial Field. With the Eagles on a bye next week, resting McNabb gives him more time to heal before the Eagles host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Oct. 11. McNabb was at Thursday's practice, but o |

| Philadelphia, PA (MySportsbook) - NFL records will reflect that Michael Vick, about to suit up for the Philadelphia Eagles' Week 3 game against the Kansas City Chiefs, will be wearing a uniform in a meaningful game for the first time since Dec. 31, 2006. Those records will not show when, or if, Vick will ever get all the way back. When Vick entered Lincoln Financial Field on that New Year's Eve back in '06, he was the franchise quarterback of the Atlanta Falcons, one of the league's most dynamic and visible pla |

| (MySportsbook) - Kevin Kolb's first real opportunity of leading the Philadelphia Eagles' offense didn't turn out to be the disaster some had envisioned. However, the young quarterback's NFL starting debut could hardly be labeled as a success either. Kolb was productive yet wildly inconsistent in taking over for the injured Donovan McNabb in Sunday's clash with New Orleans, a description that could also apply to the third-year pro's team through the first two games of this season.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -Kevin Kolb will make his second straight start for the Philadelphia Eagles if Donovan McNabb can't play against Kansas City. Coach Andy Reid isn't sure whether Jeff Garcia or Michael Vick would be the backup quarterback in that scenario. Vick is eligible to play for the first time after serving a two-game suspension as the final league penalty for his role in running a dogfighting ring. McNabb missed Sunday's 48-22 loss to New Orleans with a cracked rib. Kolb made his first NFL start, thr |

"I think that we have a chance to be better than the other teams we've been a part of," said Saints head coach Sean Payton about his club which reeled off consecutive 40-plus-point games to start the season. "We played pretty good today but there's always room for improvement. The goal for each week is to get bet |
