Decent stopgap starter. At least this means Tavaris Jackson is still raw, who I hear is pretty talented.

Holcomb won't be the starter, he'll be the backup.

The Eagles already had their quarterback depth (McNabb, Kolb, Feeley) set up. From the Eagles' perspective, getting a 6th round pick is better than just cutting him.

True. I am eagles fan but I dont watch preseason games at all. But i found a way to watch nfl games online from yahoo game pass. Yes yahoo offers nfl games online to watch 220 dollars a season. But you can not be inside the usa or canada. So i purchased an IP blocker and pwned yahoo in letting me to watch games

It can also change your IP. So it looks like your from a diffrent country like for example it switched mine to an address from turkey.

Thought Holcomb would have ended up in Atlanta not Minnesota. Jackson looked pretty good against Seattle the other night, his receivers certainly didnt help him at all. If they lose this year i think there will be some noise to use a high pick on a QB but i'm not sure that's the right thing to do, it may be.

When you use this type of software, does it affect any of the computers' main configurations and/or settings?

This had more to do with how Bollinger's looked than how Jackson has.

Tavaris Jackson is the future but he's going to struggle and that's where Holcomb comes in.

I think the jury's out on Jackson, could be a Tim Couch or an Akili Smith meaning he could be out of a job in a year or two. They lose a ton of games there and there are going to be those clamering for a Brian Brohm.

Tim Couch...? Akili Smith..? both HIGH first round picks. TJax was a mid 2nd, and was taken a little ahead of projection. He's got the skills to be good, he just really doesn't have many WR's to throw the ball to. B. Wade looks solid, S. Rice is gonna be fantastic, hopefully TWilliamson and R. Ferguson can step up.

Holcomb was a great move by the Vikes... Bolliger BLOWS bad... and behind him we've got an unproved Rookie in Tyler Thigpen. So i'm hoping they keep Thigpen around and let Bolliger go.
