All Good on Mike Vick

Mike Gill and Ryan Messick talk some Football Fix at 5:30 with the Eagles preseason victory last night against the Patriots. Both were impressed with how rookie LB Mychal Kendricks played last night and their expectations are quickly rising. Nick Foles has most likely inserted himself as the back-up QB, Andy Reid has all but conceded that. Mike is still worried about DeMeco Ryans.
