I agree with you that Vick is not a great QB yet. He's not yet on the level of Donovan F. McNabb. He is however an unbelievable weapon. He is the ultimate X factor and is totally capable of leading Atlanta to the Super Bowl. And check this out, I can look up stats too.

Falcons record by year

2000- 4-12

Then they draft Vick

2001- 7-9

The next year is his first as the full time starter

2002- 9-6-1 (made playoffs as a wildcard team and won a game before falling to who?? the Iggles)

The Vick gets hurt in the preseason

2003- 5-11

Vick healthy again

2004- 11-5 (11-3 until they decide to rest him, NFC South champs, first round bye)

You can't say this guy doesn't make a HUGE difference.

He does, but not as a quarterback. He's got adequate enough weapons around him in Crumpler, Price, Dunn, and Ducket where he should be throwing for 3,000 yards easily.

I admit that Vicks passing needs a lot of work. I think we all know that. But I'm pretty sure that if he keeps struggling, eventually a special master will decide that the Falcons should receive one of the best WRs in the NFL in exchange for a backup defensive end....


....What?


Isn't that how it works??

back to the topic of this post...i'd love to have this guy. if he is availible in the 5th 6th or even 7th rounds..i would take him...seems like he has great ability and great size...someone should write gibbs a letter and tell him about this guy...maybe that'll knock brunell outta town.
