Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

I have to believe that even if the Eagles franchise Vick, another team will match and exceed that offer to pry Vick away. I think Vick or Kolb is definitely gone next year.

[quote=Mattyk;756924]Schefter's take on things is much more reasonable and level headed over these bold predictions.[/quote]

What'd he say?

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

Maybe they can off-load Kolb on a QB-desperate team like Seattle, Arizona or Carolina. They'll still take a bath financially though after giving him, what was it, $11 million this year?

Touche

I agree with you and Scheft

[quote=mredskins;756900]Per Peter King:

[LEFT][COLOR=#000000]. Terrific nugget from Sunday morning's "NFL Matchup'' show: When Michael Vick was sandwiched five weeks ago and suffered a rib injury against Washington, a review of the coaches video found Vick should never have taken off to run. He had a crosser, from right to left, totally uncovered in the middle of the field and just never saw him. Great example of how Vick still doesn't see the whole field when he goes back to throw. For him to have a long career, he has to learn to scan the field better so he doesn't endure the kind of hits a quarterback is bound to receive if he takes off six or eight times a game, every week.

I think he's more like old timey Michael Vick in more ways than people want to believe at this point. But I also think there's been legitimate (if not wholesale) improvement in the "when to runs" and "functional effectiveness while running" areas.

Vick's playing the best ball of his career, but his passing isn't really any more or less valuable than Kolb in the same offense. Obviously, when you have two quarterbacks throwing the ball at the same level, and one of them is duel-threat Michael Vick, then Vick needs to be the one who is playing. Which the Eagles know, apparently.

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

if vick comes to the skins i'd boo his punk ass and shanny and allen too.

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

Vick is only going to get better people. He's only had a few starts in this offense. He's one of the top rated passers this year and he's really making some serious stick throws. The guy can flat out spin the ball. Time will tell if he's truly going to put the effort in to take it to the next level. But he's really setting himself up for a big payday.

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

If Vick keeps playing like he is, how can the Eagles let him go?

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

Vick isn't going anywhere. The Eagles almost certainly will sign him to a new contract. They've found their new franchise QB. He is only 30 years old and could play for 5 or 6 more years at least.

I agree with you but just want to point out he does sometimes go back to his old ways. Which in this case it cost him a couple of games and maybe some wins for his team.

Hopefully he goes back to the hospital this week again. :httr:

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

I doubt the Eagles let go of Vick, IMO he is the most exciting player in the league and they can get him for a good price b/c he will want to stay but they already have Kolb. I'm hoping we find a QB gem in the draft this year -- lots of good guys coming out of college and supposed to be one of the deepest QB drafts in years, hopefully Allen finds a good one for the next 10+ years.

Hell Yeah.... just some of you are just fools........... Mike Vick is the real deal, how long you go keep holding the dog thing over him.......... Last time i checked he did his time, maybe we should bring Mark Brunell, he a good ole boy!

Campbell to McNabb to Vick

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

So your telling me that Vick this year is not as bright of a future as McNabb ? HMMMMM .. WTF NFL are you watching .. it will never happen and i'm totally for McNabb staying for long term .. but if you could choose the 2 right now, today .. it's a slam dunk i's Vick

Dude that's the worst attempt at english i've ever seen.

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

I dont think Philly is going to let Vick go,and if they dont I wonder if they'd part with kolb.What do you think of us pursuing Kolb? I would be for it myself but I doubt if Philly would deal us another QB.

Re: What's up with all this Mike Vick talk?
 

The pressure really must be on for these guys who represent these various networks to produce stories with, or without substance. MV is a non-story.

I'm going to keep holding the dog thing over him until you go back to grade school and learn some grammar.

Re: Redskins
 

[quote=skinsfaninok;756669]I have heard rumors lately matching Vick and the Redskins in 2011. Boomer Esiason and Keyshawn both said on separate shows this morning that Vick could end up with us. I know he's from the Virginia area and all but come on.. We still have a QB that is a HOF type player with 8 games left to play! This Is why I hate QB controversies. Now we will have to hear these rumors for the rest of the season.. SMH

Btw would you guys even want Mike Vick in a redskins uniform? It's not like he's young anymore.[/quote]

I would love to have Vick, but Philly will keep him because he's still playing at a PB level. They knew what they were doing when they let Mc5 go, sadly to say.
