It had to be asked.

Is Michael Vick, Andy Reid was asked after the Eagles' 28-13 loss to the Saints Monday night, your starting quarterback?

"Michael Vick is the starting quarterback," Reid said nodding his head affirmatively.

Vick wanted a hole to climb in after the game. His younger brother Marcus (@MVFive), watching the beating he took, tweeted that the Eagles should trade the quarterback.

"You say he tweeted that during the game?" Vick said. "Sorry, I’m not aware of it. That’s something that I’m really going to have to address once I leave here.”

Then again, the way Vick was tossed around like a rag doll by the Saints, who sacked him seven times and hit him at least double that, who could rip a sibling for wanting to get him out of such a situation?

Vick completed just 53.7 percent of his passes for 272 yards with a 77-yard scoring bomb to DeSean Jackson.

Vick also threw an interception - the ball tipping off the hand of Brent Celek - that Patrick Robinson returned 99 yards for the first points of the game.
