I'm just as stumped with that one as you are. :confused:

I thought it was a serious question. If it is a joke though it makes sense. The post just read as something serious where he really thought it was a probation violation. If he was joking he got me on that one.

Hopefully our offensive line will be improved this year or we'll need someone like Vick just to be able to run from pass rushers.

the reasons i don't want him have absolutely nothing to do with his involvement in dog fighting

Vick wasn't known to be a passing QB like Brees/Manning/Favre etc., etc., and he was never expected to put up tons of yards through the air, so why would Snyder want him? Snyder wanted Cutler b/c he thought he could put up a lot of yards through the air, the same with Sanchez.

He sucked in that at times he barely could get 100 yards passing in some games. What did the rest of my original post state? Only pure passing QB's win the SB. That isn't BS, that is a fact. Look at McNabb. He had one SB appearance, and that was because as time went by he finally became a really strong passer. Vick is fun to watch, but he won't get to a SB anytime soon. My guess is the Vikings will pick him up to challenge for the starting position. Bottom line is that he is too one dimensional to be highly valued in the NFL.

Im not saying hes a great or even good passer. All im saying is while in Atlanta he went 40-30-1. His last year in the league he threw for 20 TDs and also had 1000 yards rushing. If you say Vick sucks as a passer thats one thing and going by his career completion % id agree with you. When you factor in the complete package he doesnt suck though as a player.

That said like I have posted earlier I wouldnt want Vick on the Skins. Mainly because Campbell has just as much ability as a passer. Im mainly banking on Campbell stepping up his game in a contract year.

^ Agreed

Pretty good article by JLC on Vick. Honestly, I'm amazed at how much this guy (Vick) is being discussed by anyone. Even Redskins-hater Mike Florio is not kicking up much dust about this.

If there's a name available, chances are the Skins are going to be mentioned. Just how it goes around here.

I agree with JLC, chances are pretty slim and really the move wouldn't make much sense.

How much you wanna bet there's a thread about Clarett to the Redskins this time next year?

I dont think he could fit on many teams as he is not a pocket passer and those legs of his wont be fast for very much longer. which means he'll just be another kordell stewart. Right? i think it would be good for the team and MV to aquire him though. why not whats there to really lose

JLC mentioned the possibility of the Dolphins and that make some sense. They use the wildcat a lot... though they did just draft Pat White so maybe it doesn't make much sense after all.

I have a feeling more and more teams will pick up some aspect of the wildcat, so there will be a chance for him somewhere. Even with no wildcat someone is gonna pick him up.
