Kevin Kolb likely to start against Patriots
QB John Skelton has a low ankle sprain. Hopefully Whisenhunt will give an idea of how long he will miss when he talks soon. Good news though

Amidst celebrating the Patriots first win yesterday, you might've missed the fact that Arizona's starting quarterback John Skelton was injured late in the Cardinals victory over the Seahawks yesterday. He didn't suffer a long term injury but he'll most likely miss this Sunday's game against the Patriots.
That leaves former Eagles backup Kevin Kolb as the starter. Honestly, there isn't much of a difference between the two quarterbacks.
One thing that bodes well for the Patriots is that Kolb is pretty shy about taking chances down field. He's more of the dump it off to the short, safe pass and pray for the best. He doesn't like to take chances. The Patriots are are going to make damn sure that Larry Fitzgerald is well covered, so expect Kolb to be scared as hell of throwing much his way.
