Throw all the statistics you want about how bad he is at passing who cares he still can win.

No, he hasn't proven anything for two years. In the best scenario you need to change your claims from present tense to past tense.

(the Falcons are only 1 year removed from Vick, so they have not changed their player structure that much)

Atlanta has moved on and gone in a different direction. They've invested in Matt Ryan. And Vick has burned his bridges in Atlanta by lying to the owner. He'll never play there again. But SF might be a place for him. Or maybe Mora will take him back in Seattle to back up Hassleback. He's got Vick's old OC there so we'll see.

Wow, I would have thought EVERY team is better suited with a passing quarterback, and you imply that Vick could not become a passing qb. Therefore, I would say Vick is not the best suited qb for any offense. Is McNabb NOT a passing qb? It is fine to be a qb that can run, or pressure the D that way, but unless a team wants a qb to handoff every time he has to be a passing qb. Vick never got that, and I doubt playing yardball for the last year or so, would have helped his game any. But then, Minnesota is talking to Favre so, hey, I'll believe anything.

To say he's a faster Kordell may bit accurate but saying he's not worthy of being under center is just silly. We'll agree to disagree..

Point well taken. I certainly understand your stance, but we have different fundamental beliefs on what a good / effective qb is. He is / was certainly someone that caused problems for defenses though. So you are correct, we will agree to disagree.

My dog just said that Vick is a bad, bad QB and should have his nose smacked with a rolled up newspaper.

I worked for a professional rodeo company and PETA was the number one group we had to worry about. They thought they were doing good but would end up making things worse if not deadly for the animals. PETA is a group of fringe wackos whose best interests are in anything but the animals IMHO.

Sam Huff has no sympathy for Vick.

sorry, i should have been more specific. a GOOD passing qb. vick was not a good passing qb. he was great at running but struggled at passing.

I watched a news piece done on Peta a few years ago . One of Peta's " leaders " was at American University showing students how to make homemade bombs ,,,, crazy ? Not suprising those kinds of nuts get invited to speak at our Universities ?

Biggest bunch of hypocrites in the world. Most animal shelters throughout Hampton Roads (PETA's HQ is in Norfolk) have a euthanasia rate of under 35%. PETA's is consistently over 90%.
