Vick signs with the Eagles

Wow, that came out of nowhere.

Michael Vick signs two-year deal with Philadelphia Eagles - ESPN

53Fan · 08-13-2009, 08:41 PM

Didn't expect that.

vallin21 · 08-13-2009, 08:43 PM

Wow I never expected that.

We should have... When Segal was at the Redskins practice the other day, we knew he had to be there because it was close to Baltimore or Philly. Philly makes perfect sense. They run the WCO system with a mobile QB as a starter and their backup QB just got injured. They have a no-nonsense coach and Front Office. Its a perfect situation for Vick. The only good news for us is he'll either suck horribly or play his way into a starting position somewhere else. Either way, he'll only play for them one year.

Why is it hard for people to believe that Segal was in DC to see his clients who are Redskins?

Because that's a boring reason and it makes sense. LOL.

he was in DC to see his clients... either right before or after he was in Philly and/or Baltimore to discuss Vick.

And didn't he sign a two-year deal? $1.6 the first year?

BHA, I'm going to point out that you're on record describing Campbell and the WCO as a poor combination. Why on God's green earth would Vick be a better fit?

A west coast offense is only different from any other offense because of the empahsis on getting the ball out of the QB's hands quickly. This would be precisly how you get all the worst qualities out of Michael Vick.

If you are going to play with Vick, you spread the defense horizontally and work from there.

I guess the injury to Kolb was pretty bad. Funny though, Eagles have other needs right now.

53Fan · 08-13-2009, 08:43 PM

Reid was talking the other day about how well Dungy and others were speaking about Vick.

Ruhskins · 08-13-2009, 08:49 PM

Let's not forget that Vick won't be able to play until game 6. Just enough time for the Eagles fans to complain about McNabb and ask for Vick to start.

benmeddle · 08-13-2009, 09:02 PM

Eagles play the Redskins in Week 7. Will be interesting to see how the Philly fans react to the news.
