Not at first. Kolb looked like trash at first when he filled in for McNabb the first time. Remember the game against the Ravens with a few ugly INTs including a 100+ yard pick-6 by Ed Reed?
By the time he filled in for Vick, he had a handfull of games under his belt. Foles is still a rookie like the ugly version of Kolb we saw.
There's definitely an adjustment period when any starting QB goes down unless there's a system in place and all QBs fit that system, like in Houston, New England or Green Bay. That's why we saw the Patriots STILL make the playoffs with Matt Cassel taking over for Brady and Matt Flynn puts up 50 points for the Packers. I don't see that setup with the Eagles and Vick. They should have held onto Vince Young as backup, he's a mobile Vick-like QB. Against us for the Bills this preseason, he proved he can still outrun the D.
In Philly now, they have backups that play completely different than their starter.
So do we, but our #1 hasn't proven to be injury-prone yet.
Vince young had plenty of chances in philly. He couldnt get it done. Anyway my point was more that the team could adjust rather quickly to a new qb not that a qb could step rite in. Although i for one believe foles will be a much better qb than vince young in the nfl.

Im the first to agree with that. Preseason means crap. However i can still watch a guy throw and read a defense. Foles got it done against pats number one d. Chase did not. Also some of the guys on your list just flat out have played more snaps than others. Alot more. So those numbers are deceiving. Anyway Foles is going to be a good one or my name isnt Heath Ramsey ...... Wait a minute

The last time I found preseason relevant was when Victor Cruz had that ridiculous 3 TD night against the Giants. I was like "Damn that guy is going to be good". Thats it. I can't think of any other game where preseason really helped put a player on the map.
Cam newton didn't do anything special in the preseason last year, and look at his regular season.
Brandon Banks has returned a punt and/or Kick off for a TD for 3 straight preseasons...and what has he done in the regular season...nothing thats helped us win games.
