What Michael Vick won't be

MonkFan4Life · 08-20-2009, 08:52 AM

Did we sign Cunningham; or is the Vick hate that bad that someone pulled a highlight video of a QB that hasn't played in years to show that they don't like Vick too ? I mean honestly ?

It's funny how we talk about the media and their Vick overkill...yet here on this board we have one thread dedicated to how Vick won't be Randall Cunningham (I think that's what this is about) and another dedicated to someone's new profile picture featuring a Redskins jersey that shows we didn't sign Vick.

Vick is on the list with Michael Jackson, Obama, HiP HoP, Castro, Chavez, Hamas. Let's be serious.

??? Interesting list. Not sure what the common thread is

Overhyped media subjects perhaps...The shit that dead horses beat when they are bored. Although hip hop and castro are interesting additions to the list?

Could be...or things that won't be Randall Cunningham

Things that go good with whine?

O'Reilly's hate subjects.

He says he is just as fast and one thing about it his body has not been taking the pounding from the last two seasons.

Cunningham is a little overrated by many. Really what did he do w/ Philly in all those years?

You have to realize that Vick put pressure on a defense in different ways than a pocket guy does. There was a reason he was the highest paid person in the NFL. When he was not on the field Atlanta was just not the same team and the record showed that. Vick has taken his team to the playoffs and won playoff games. He was a big part of that. Jason Campbell has not done that yet. Vick was a good QB, he just wasn't a good passer.

When you have a player that does something better than anyone else in the league. You would be foolish not to exploit that advantage. I used to love how 3rd and 8 to go. Vick can get that easily, but while you out there in the secondary and you faster than everyone else, I don't see any reason not to take a chance to take it to the house. Common sense.

Vick is bringing a LOT more than on-field skills to the Eagles or any team he plays for...and they're not all GOOD things. There are more variables than if he can fit into your offensive system to consider when deciding to add Vick to your team, much like with someone like Terrell Owens, but on a much bigger, potentially more distracting scale.
