Vick named the new starting QB in Philly

[DAF86]

True, because there is a big difference between 4-12 and 7-9. And that's not even taking into consideration getting rid of the best QB on the roster, who while not truly elite is a much better NFL QB than Vick has ever been.

Say Vick is back to his old self the rest of the season; flashy yet extremely flawed as a passer. Do you re-sign him to a multiple year deal? Let him walk and go with Kolb, who is most assuredly going walk after next season? Tag him when it's not even clear if he has the goods or not?

Don't know about you, but the whole thing screams cluster to me.

FYI - The Lions have had the worst defense for three consecutive years and Vick wasn't as good as his stats suggest.

I saw the same QB I saw five years ago. Elite talent that makes too many poor decisions throwing the ball.

It'll catch up with him against better defenses.

It always has.

That old Vick made it to the NFC championship.

Thanks for the tip. Who was the other QB in that game?


Jake Delhomme, Rex Grossman and Kerry Collins made it to the SB.

you forgot about trent dilfer.

I didn't forget.

I didn't know that losing the NFCCG was an accomplishment so I listed guys with better losing accomplishments.

Yes, which means the Eagles could easily make it far with Vick as their QB, thanks for proving my point. Besides Vick's winning % is pretty good, you're making it seems like he's a perennial loser.

Sure, as long as your point that a top 15 defense usually accompanies an inconsistent QB on a deep playoff run. At some point, those QBs are forced to make smart decisions and all have faltered.

Vick is great when he can just use instinct and pure athleticism against bad to average defenses. Against better defenses than can limit his running ability and force him to make good decisions in the pocket, he's never been able to beat them consistently as a passer.

FYI - Philly ranks dead last in points allowed and just gave up 32 points and 444 yards to a Shaun Hill led offense.

PrePrison Vick said he never studied the game much at all. Relied solely on athleticism.

New Vick says he is studying and Reid backs this up.
Completely different Vick and he's looked very good in both games so far.

So to assume New Vick will be just like Old Vick is wrong.
And for all the negative comparisons, how was Atlanta with Vick and without him?

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

With Kurt Kittner and Doug Johnson?

About as well as you'd think any NFL team would fare starting those two accomplished QBs.

lol DAF challenged stretch on who rides black qb's nuts harder

[MannyIsGod]

Vick has played well enough to warrant starting this season. If he sucks be benched in a couple of games anyway. You should not bench a guy playing that well though.

Well a guy playing that well that I picked up off waivers anyway.

I figured that was easier than challenging you on who can get Peyton Manning's genitalia deeper inside their mouth.

[Dave Mustaine]

Neat retort especially considering you don't have anything to back that up.

Dave getting bukkaked by DAF, the great NFL regular.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Cheering for black quarterbacks is such an exercise in futility.

[The_BusDriver]

Vick is good for Philly. their Oline sucks so bad.
Philly's defense isnt what it used to be but that offense is going to rack up some points.

[DAF86]

172 total yds and 2 TD's at halftime.

lol Jackson, dude was a yd away from the first down and started running backwards.

[badfish22]

F86, with the regular posting

[DAF86]

Just rooting for the black QB's I'm supossed to root.

I'm starting to think that Vick may take the supebowl MVP away from VY.

[DAF86]

Vick just putting up the show he's supossed to put up, a lot to see here.
