TECHNICALLY, the Eagles are changing quarterbacks, not offenses. They ran the West Coast offense for the 11 seasons that Donovan McNabb was behind center, and they will continue to run it now that Kevin Kolb is replacing him. But while the playbook will be the same and the formations will be the same, the version of the West Coast that the Eagles will run with Kolb at the controls won’t quite be the same as the version McNabb ran. “No two players are exactly the same,” Kolb said. “There’s got to be some things that will change. I’m a totally different style guy than Donovan.” The West Coast offense, as designed by Bill Walsh, is supposed to be about short passes and yards-after-the-catch.
