Anyone thinking that McNabb return game next week just got more interesting?
He is 2001 Vick all over again. But this time with receivers who are fast as fuck and can actually catch.
Uh OH.
Saftey?
Really Seattle?
Like really?
:sad:
Not to mention he can actually pocket pass, and he looks down the field to pass more. Not to mention with Washington failing in St. Louis…uh…raise your hand if you had Philly winning the division? PUT YOUR HANDS DOWN YOU LIARS!
Mike Vick has FINALLY STARTED to study to be a good qb. He is watching film now. This has more to do with mike vick taking his career seriously now more than the eagles coaching staff imo. Yes the eagles coaching staff made mc5 a better qb and it helps to have those type of coaches, but mike finally gets it imo. Most likely it’s 50/50 on coaching and mike trying to be a great qb/player now. He got his chance and he isn’t going to crap it away this time. He’s not goofing off and bs’ing his time in the NFL. This is the Mike Vick we in the ATL knew he could be if he only applied himself.
Unfortunately he would have NEVER turned into this version of mike vick without going to jail and almost losing everything. Before he was just cool with being the best weapon in the NFL that happen to be a qb. Now he wants to be the best QB in the nfl period. Mike Vick for MVP of the 2010 season. Comeback player of the year will be a easy choice, but if he keeps playing like this how in the hell could you not give the mvp to him? In a way I want to root for him, but in a way I feel CHEATED because he didn’t take his career seriously while he was a Falcon. I’m so torn on this issue, because i’m a FALCON FAN 1st before i’m a fan of a player. I hope he doesn’t goto the panthers next year. I would be sick for 2 games. Damn mike is going to throw for 300 and run for 100 on the falcons in week 6. :sad:
i think having decent receivers and a good system has as much, if not more to do with his pocket passing as his getting more mature. in atlanta the gameplay was, “mike run around and make plays!” and his best receiver was crumpler now he has a legit deep threat and good possession receivers.
if they upgrade the O-line just a lil, especially outside, they could put up Madden like numbers.
It depends. If he keeps playing like it, yeah, MVP seems likely, just because of that first half with Kolb in GB. Kolb has a decent/good half before getting hurt, or hell, doesn’t play at all…don’t know if Vick gets it just because he doesn’t seem AS valuable if he has a good QB behind him. But I’m not going with the MVP talks as of yet. Wait to see what he does in those divisional games, the NFC East is not a cakewalk.
True…however, if the O-Line was as sured up as it was before…Vick might not be starting right now just because I think Kolb getting killed behind a meh O-Line had as much to do with the switch as Vick’s play. Kolb’s your future, you don’t want him to be another David Carr who gets killed while playing because of a shitty O-Line.
True dat. Dont know why they still have Vick in there right now though up 3 scores. They must really wanna avoid controversy.
Simple…they remember last week…after what happened in Detroit, NO CHANCES.
but they could just do run plays and run out the clock. last drive they had 3 passes!
Andy Reid must really like to play Madden at home and at work.
Helping out the fantasy owners? McCoy didn’t get enough touches, fantasy owners want more.
Biggest guess? Maybe sending a message to Washington.
Haha I guess Collinsworth wasn’t trolling when he said Seattle would win!
YAY INT!
Better get some points out of the turnover this time.
Andy Reid HAS always been pass first.
He is not going to change at this point in his career.
Sure, but even HE usually sits on a lead and runs it out…
Mike had Roddy white, but he didn’t study his craft. The mike Vick that’s playing now IS NOT THE SAME PLAYER I SAW IN A FALCON UNIFORM! This guy is standing TALL in the pocket. He is not running as much. He is scanning the field and scrabbling to by more time to pass instead of just running because he has 4.29 speed at the qb position. Yea the Falcons wr’s weren’t great but Mike wouldn’t try to buy time to pass. He would just run out of there. His pocket presence seems 100X better now.
I will say that the eagles O-line that is hurt is still better than any mike vick o-line with the falcons. They would never draft a good o-line because they would say “mike don’t need a good o-line” He’ll escape the pass rush and make a play so F a o-line. Damn I didn’t play him today in 1 of my leagues! I was debating either vick or arron rogers. Arron better get his projection of 20 or i’m going to be pissed with myself.
I should stop benching Vick. Dammit Rivers
That is still a rarity for him. I watched almost all the Eagles game when they had Dawkins, Kearse, Trotter, Lito (big fan of their D back then) and even back then they still pass like nuts and they had Westy. Now they don’t even have Westy. He will run/pass/run or pass/run/run, but for him to run/run/run is like seeing a solar eclipse.
Can anybody pull up Austin Collie’s numbers? Because right now he is SAVING my ass in my Fantasy League.
