Re: The Vick Factor
Ya, I just did a quick search and couldn't find anything about his release from the Falcons, I've been watching ESPN and saw nothing on it too. I'd like to see a link as well.

Re: The Vick Factor
Are you sure you're not confusing being released by the Falcons with being released from prison into home custody?

Re: The Vick Factor
Wonder if Vick will ever play again or if he may go to Canada?

Re: The Vick Factor
He's definitely a PR nightmare. I think it's going to take a desperate team or a very strong one (Patriots) to take that on.
I don't think the Skins are even in the conversation for Vick. |

Re: The Vick Factor
He isn't a good QB, bad completion percentage and a lot of INTs.

Re: The Vick Factor
Yeah hoo. He did that, hung dogs, tortured dogs, electrocuted dogs, etc. This wasn't just the gambling aspect to him, he shouldn't be allowed back in the NFL. If a lawyer did this, they would be disbarred. If a police officer did this he wouldn't ever get another job in law enforcement. Mike Vick doesn't deserve another chance, in my opinion.

Re: The Vick Factor
I think PETA understand that he went to jail and served his time. He may in order to counteract any negative backlash become a spokesperson or a supporter with cash to PETA

Re: The Vick Factor
There are places where Vick would fit in next year as a backup QB. I think the exaustive list goes Indianapolis, New England, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, San Diego, Chicago, New Orleans, or the NY Giants. That's 25% of the league that could find a positive use for Mike Vick. All of those teams have one thing in common, established, franchise type QBs, or at least the perception that they have one.
If he goes anywhere else, said team is probably taking him for the wrong reasons.

Re: The Vick Factor
SF should sign him. He's probably better than Hill and Smith.

Re: The Vick Factor
I'm not worried about whether Vick plays again or not. I really couldn't care less. I think he has a lot of work to do on just being a decent human being. I don't see him doing anything for the Redskins except being a media circus. We don't need him. It kinda boggles my mind that someone worth millions of dollars would spend their time fighting dogs??? I guess Forrest Gump was right, "Stupid is as stupid does." What a f**king idiot.

I certainly dont see him as a great quarterback, but the point was made earlier in thread he is still better than some of the starting qbs playing now. Certainly Atlanta grossly overpaid on last contract, so while hes not the 130 dollar man he is still a good qb. Just dont see him fitting in here. |
