Re: The Vick Factor

1. MV is not on the market. Atl. has not given him his release.
2. He was not a very accurate passer his last couple of years.
3. He has a two year lay-off.
4. He hasn't been re-instated by Commish. Gordon
5. Protestors would come to whichever stadium he plays in.
6. He might still face local charges, one never knows about these legal matters. It ain't over, til it's over!
7. Hasn't JC been through enough issues this recent off-season?
8. BF is still trying to steal the spotlight with his retirement/not retirement issues.

Report: Rams Interested In Vick
Posted by Aaron Wilson on May 31, 2009, 12:54 p.m.

The St. Louis Rams have emerged as a potential landing spot for suspended quarterback Michael Vick if he’s reinstated, and team officials have been performing their “due diligence,” according to Michael Lombardi of NFP and NFL Network.

Per the report, the Rams have “genuine interest” in Vick, who’s on house arrest in Virginia after serving 18 months in federal prison.

“Several people in the NFL told me not to rule out St. Louis as a possible destination for Vick,” Lombardi writes. “If [NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell] reinstates him, look for them to actively pursue him. It makes sense, a new coach with an older quarterback who hasn’t played well. Playing in a dome on carpet would highlight Vick’s speed and athleticism.”

Of course, the Rams being up for sale complicates Vick’s prospects because new ownership could be opposed to pursuing Vick.

Plus, Vick must show “genuine remorse,” in Goodell’s words, to gain reinstatement to the league.

Lombardi portrays Vick as having his head on straight and ready for a second chance.

“According to people I’ve talked to who are close to him, Vick is in great spirits and looking forward to the future,” Lombardi writes. “I’m told he’s in great ‘non-professional football shape’ and is determined to prove he can regain his superstar status in the NFL.

“He intends to spend more time studying the game, more time preparing to play, more time working on his game. Two years alone with nothing but your thoughts can be a powerful motivational tool.”

Re: The Vick Factor

I keep hearing the Rams are interested in Vick and this article is just another source. I actually think the Rams would be a perfect fit for Mike Vick.

Until they find out that while he was in prison, he was slaughtering goats for satanic ritual sacrifice.

The Rams are in a bit of a flux right now. I thought I read somewhere that they may be up for sale (I'll see if I dig up the link). So who knows what will happen.

Re: The Vick Factor

I'd LOVE to see them bring in Michael Vick. That way Carlos Rogers can work on catching the ball. Maybe they can bring back Albert Connell too, so he can share a locker with MV. After all, I heard both were well-loved by their teammates.

That's hilarious. Albert Connell. God I forgot about him. THANKS!

This isn't specifically about Vick, but it is about leadership and maturity at the QB position. Tony Dungy's take on the Cutler trade.
