You also have to take into account that Atlanta was a team built for Vick, a mobile QB who could evade the blitz. They used a light versatile line under Alex Gibbs to help in the running game which isn't exactly ideal for a pocket passer. Also though they i invested a lotta picks in WR's, none of them have panned out thus far so its not like Harrington is exactly surrounded with talent. Given all that and the fact that Petrino is a new coach, I think you can't really judge him on wins and losses this year (maybe next year). I mean imagine if ppl had done that for JC based on the games he started last year. In this case, you have to go on his stats and his overall play/feel for the game. Unfortunately when it becomes clear later this year that Vick's career in Atlanta is over, I think Falcons fans will be too impatient and will call for a big name FA or draft pick to address the QB situation. Too bad for Joey.
