Donovan Who?

With an impressive win Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, QB Kevin Kolb has raised some eyebrows. What should Andy Reid do when, and if, Donovan McNabb returns against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on October 11th? Kolb had a very impressive game against the Chiefs today. He threw for 327 yards and a big, fat ZERO - turnovers that is. He also reenacted the Paul Revere ride and declared it a victory: "Two (TDs) if by 'air' and one (TD) if by 'land.' "

One feature of Kolb's game that really impressed me was his pinpoint accuracy. The 50+ yard touchdown to DeSean Jackson was with precision, as was one pass in particular to another one of his best friends today, Brent Celek. The receivers were probably not really expecting this, as they usually have to be quite on their toes when Donovan launches some air missiles or lame ducks. Whatever medicine the doctor ordered to calm Kevin Kolb down, Donovan had better order a season long supply should he recover from his rib injury.

Even with last week's loss, Kevin Kolb becomes the first rookie QB, not just Eagle, but first rookie QB to throw for 300+ yds in his first two games. Not too bad for someone who showed nothing last year against the Ravens in the game Donovan was benched, a mediocre run of the offense at the end of week 1. That game was just cleaning up the mess that the Panthers left at the doorstep.

Andy Reid will have some tough decisions to make when the Eagles host the Bucs. Not just at QB, but at running back and wide receiver too.
