accuracy, decision making, attitude, work ethic, off field issues... yeah, if he can just become a totally different ****ing human being, no worries. Remember, he was a below average qb BEFORE spending a year in Federal "Pound Me In The Ass" Prison.

Couldn't say it better than myself. He is a bad passing QB period!!!! Oh yeah he is fun to watch dancing around, but the Falcons sucked with him at QB before his doggie trouble. To win the SB you need a guy that can pass the pigskin, not dance. Look at McNabb, he didn't get too far in the playoffs til he became a solid passing QB. With hindsight being 20/20 Vick was lucky to be even drafted, but his unbelievable athleticism saved him.

With all of this Cutler/Sanchez crap do you think it is going to be good for JC if we pursue this guy? Do you really want to get rid of Collins now, and have only an inexperienced Brennan and a non throwing QB as backups?

40-30-1 career record as QB of the Falcons. I dont want Vick either but the Falcons didnt suck with Vick as QB.

His last 2 years of playing he sucked, 15-16 record, QB rating under 76. Hasn't been in an NFL training program in over 2 years, let alone in a game.

It's like I've been saying. Once teams figured out he couldn't pass he became a lot less effective.

His last season he was 204-388 for 2474 yds and a 20-13 TD-INT Ratio

He also rushed for 1039 yds and 2 TDs on only 123 carries.

He didnt suck. He was probably the main reason why they won 7 games with that half ass supporting cast around him.

Anyone who thinks Michael Vick sucked didnt watch him play. He wasnt a great passer but combined with his running ability he was a combo threat that won games.

Who says he has to be a full-time starter? Aside from breaking dogs backs over his knee, Vick was born to run the Wildcat offense. He doesn't have to throw the ball! It's essentially a running play. Imagine Vick, Portis, and Betts in the backfield with Moss running downfield and whoever else emerges in the starting lineup. Vick doesn't have to throw but he does have the arm strength to get the ball to the target.
The wildcat offense keeps defenses honest by running backs (qb included) in several directions (right, left and up the middle) which ultimately opens up running lanes.
I'm a dog owner and I think what Vick did was brutal but I want the skins to win so sign the guy to the league minimum (2yrs), let him get his feet under him and cut him loose.
Anybody remember Portis and Samuels defending Vick during the vick circus? They had no problem with dog-fighting and nobody's dick got hard.
