thoughts I have:
Jt's the man. I think in the coming weeks we will hear rumors about other teams he turned down more money for. Seems like the whole being close to his family talk, was in fact his main motivation.
Second thought: Why are you a mentor, is that really the message we want to send newbies?
Third thought: I'm pretty hungry.. -

I have a thought.
If both TO and Vick are in Buffalo we will see no other team in the AFCE get more coverage in the media than them.
We could be posting an 18-0 record getting ready to go to the superbowl and it wouldn't matter.steveincolorado, dolphindebby and SICK like this. -
As for Mike Vick:
If Vick went to Buffalo, would he need the key to the city or the jail cell?steveincolorado likes this. -

And now I shall

Jt's home, where he belongs. I never had any doubts about it.

Let's see....a QB that doesn't pass with a greedy WR that shoots off at the mouth if he doesn't get the ball?

Living this close to Atlanta, the man makes my skin crawl.
The news hounds follow him around all the time. He's a creep. I never liked him before this dog killing came up. He's a smug jerk IMO.
Maybe it's because he was shoved down our throats when he came to Atlanta, I don't know, but he's a piece of work, that's for sure.opfinistic likes this. -

It might not have changed him at all, but it might have. So I'm going to wait and see before I say he's still a terrible person.GreenMonster, SICK and mullingan like this. -

I believe in second chances.
I believe that he has paid his debt to society.
I don't want him in Miami.calphin, cnc66, SICK and 1 other person like this. -
better in buffalo than in boston
too small a town for all that ego: a WR who want the ball every play & a QB that wants to run,
both with a lot to prove, should wide up a real dog fight
the snow & rabid fans will end their careers early
good to have JT back in the foldopfinistic and dolphindebby like this. -

I could see them getting Vick in hopes he is their version of Pat White and the Wildcat. Only problem is, is that Vick does not pass as accurately as White and is not consistant.
I just had a thought. What happens when Vick settles with a team and decides to get a dog for a pet. I can just imagine some of the comments and sports headlines. -
When it is 20 degrees in the Mistake by the Lake, Vick has the arm to power the ball through that wind, Edwards is more or less sack bait in those conditions. -

Vick's QB rating so far in his NFL career is 75.5%. His completion percentage average for his career so far is 53.8.
In the last three years he played he had:
2004- 56.4% 14 TDs and 12 Ints
2005- 55.3% 15 TDs and 13 Ints
2006- 52.6% 20 TDs and 13 Ints
His highest completion percentage in a year was 2004.
An average passer at best.Coral Reefer and opfinistic like this. -
But we're looking at filling in a situational position, not a full time QB spot. I'd rather start fresh with someone that hasn't got the moral baggage that Vick would come with. And let's face it, no matter where he goes, there will be the extreme lovers of Vick, and those that despise him, he'll polarize a fan base somewhere.
-
Trying to measure Vick as a player just by his arm doesnt work IMO. -
Speaking from somebody who lives in western NY, the bills are insanely desperate right now. Sports in Buffalo is at an all time low and so is the economy in Buffalo, people are leaving the city and so might the bill because fan support is on the decline. Therefore, the team will throw money at any player that would bring any kind of interest to the table(T.O., Vick, JT). Right now everyone is extremely optamistic about this season. Sad thing is, they will never be better than 9-7.

He's always been touted much more highly than his production ever lived up to.
I could care less if he went to Buffalo.steveincolorado likes this.
