Re: lets discuss the free agents we really dont want and why!

some people aren't worth arguing with.

seriously, if you think vick's the second coming, and his terrible stats over his entire career somehow aren't his fault AT ALL, more power to you, but to me he's just an electric (and fumble prone) running back that can throw and never lived up to the hype. he'll be out, but even if he gets back in the nfl, it'll be for pennies and i don't expect he'll have any more success this time around.

mcnabb had terrible receivers, so did drew brees, it's not like he's the ONLY guy in the history of the NFL to have crap WRs... but the other QBs were actually, you know, good, so they made it work.

Never said Vick was the second coming, honestly where do you get this stuff? In all honesty this time around I am more interested in him as a slash player. Maybe a backup or a temp fix until Brennan or the next big thing is ready to start. If JC comes back then cool.

It took both of those QB's 6 and 4 years respectably to put up numbers considerably better than Vicks (% and passer rating). Neither of them missed an entire season (early in their careers) due to injury either.

Every QB develops at a different pace and some good ones later in their life and/or careers ie Kurt Warner, Randall Cunningham, Roger Staubach, Trent Green, Rich Gannon, Kerry Collins to name a few. Notice that I said good and not great outstanding or excellent.

I am not calling Vick great, but he is not as bad as you guys are making him out to be either. I feel that he could be cheap and he can help any team in more ways than one. Not just a a passer.

Now since you believe that I am not worth arguing with "Airman", I will not be expecting a reply.
