Michael Vick in Talks to Become PETA Spokesman

Atlanta is better off with Matt Ryan for the long run. What happened with Vick was a blessing in disguise.

Absolutely.

I liked Vick but always felt he was a 1 man show. I know the team had a lot of talent but it seemed that it either never jelled or something. Rumor was he was not a pocket passer type. So the coach's always found a way to roll him out, similar to the run and shoot. Warren Moon ring a bell? Then someone decided it was time to prove the pundits wrong and try to make him a pocket passer. Sometimes he looked good sometimes he looked like his old self running for his life and making a decent pass in between.

I think that by losing Vick the team actually was forced to work as a team and it showed as they made the play offs with their 1st yr coach and Rookie QB. The team has talent I just don't think they utilized all of it under Vick.

What is the difference then an X gang member working with kids to keep them out of trouble then MV doing stuff with PETA. It is very common for people to do stuff like this after getting out of jail.
The difference as I see it is this. The Gangbanger likely has little to gain monetarily by doing good will and more likely is generated from the heart. The same cannot be said for MV where there is a great deal of $$$$ involved, and he MUST have public approval to get there. MV, more than likely would not be doing all this feel good stuff without the $$$ involved

Vick needs to think about this before he comes back:
Both him and Marcus will be eligible for the hall the same year right now! LOL

I just don't see why everyone thinks he can't play the QB position. He goes to jail and I guess he loses his QB abilities? Yes he could play RB he could return some kicks, yes he can catch the football. But he plays QB so much better. Thats the only thing that confuses me about a lot of opinions on this.

Well, considering his QB abilities were worst in the league, or close to worst, why do you think he all of sudden becomes a good qb after being in prison?
Why also do people think that he still has his speed / illusiveness that made people THINK he was a good qb in the first place?

Yes. His greatest ability was his speed. People get slower as they get older and he's lost 2 years while in jail.

Besides, he could not have been practicing and working out at a high level. The NFL is very competitive, it requires year-round work, and no one can expect to take 2 years off and still be at the same level. And, sadly for him, his level in the passing game was already mediocre.

elusiveness jsarno elusiveness, got you back

How did he have the worst QB abilities in the league? I highly doubt that he only has been to multiple pro bowls and almost took the falcons to the Superbowl yea he is a bad QB sorry

Sadly for him? Dude are you an NFL talent evaluator. Of course its competitive of course its hard. But you actually think he has sat on his ass and not done anything to help his body out? OK I've heard so much on how is passing is whatever who gives a shit he still can win ball games he has proven that on so many occasions. He is a playmaker who cares how he gets it done. Throw all the statistics you want about how bad he is at passing who cares he still can win.
