What Michael Vick won't be

Where Michael Vick won't be.....In the Superbowl.

And yet he went further than the Redskins. 1st year back and in the Play offs and the Pro Bowl, not bad. Wish he was here.

Go look up some toe pictures. You might as well jump all the way on their bandwagon and do it right.

Questions still remain about Vick's ability to produce consistently from the pocket. GB revealed an effective plan of defense that was obvious from the very first offensive snap for the Eagles.

Maybe it's time to slightly chill on the flick of Vick's bic, for the most part GB made him look average, though his quad injury could have been more troublesome than we know. JH take notes so we'll never again have to stare down a 59-28 at the hands of MV.

I do think his quad hindered him. Take away his legs and he's suddenly mortal. That and I think defenses caught up with him a bit as the season went on.

must be a Tech fan, same here

I got really tired of hearing the "Vick deserves to be here" talk though. They really turned him into the victim. You can say "Vick deserves to be here" if he was shot or something innocently and bounced back to be here... otherwise the best you can do is "good for Vick working his way back." The talk of deserving it was disgusting imo

yep, I'm a Hokie, though I know plenty of Hokies that in the last couple years became Vick haters & remain so.

I agree...he did however, have an amazing run considering this was his first full year running the offense. It may become necessary for him to adjust his game to where he does not run as much, the cumulative effect from the many hits he took during the season obviously took their toll.

Just how effective would Vick be as a QB without that gifted ability to be mobile? He has problems with [the slide] so durability is going to be an ever present issue for him.

I was telling my wife last night that if Vick is re-signed by the iggles, we haven't seen the end of the Vick-Kolb rotation. Vick will get hurt, he always does. Kolb will come in & play well & Reid will have to make a decision just like he did this year. Eventually, Vick may get flat out benched. I can see that happening in the next couple years. He put together a great season & I'm happy for him, but I really think he'll have a much harder time keeping the starting job from day 1, he's unllikely to have a year like this again w/so few interceptions & fumbles.

Preach on brother.

As for those saying take away Vick's running game and he is mortal, agree 100%. He made strides, I think, as a pocket passer this year and is now about average in that regard (as opposed his prior years where, w/out his legs he was near useless as a passer). Not sure he will ever be more than that, could be. Certainly, his arm is still top notch.

As they say, you can't coach speed. He's (still) got the physical abilities and the question is whether or not they will stay with him long enough for him to learn how to be a more complete QB. Not sure.

2nd year back.

Thought I heard Kolb is demanding a trade if he's not starting. Not that that means the Eagles were oblige of course
