Since even the sporting new has basically said that our QB sucks and since Michael Vick is a free agent at the end of the year, would you make the trade??

We win the game and the Sporting News calls out Henne, and not Sanchez? How stupid.

As per the question, I don't want anything to do with Mike Vick.

No. Miami needs a better play caller and QB but the answer isn't Vick.

Why would we have to trade Marshall to get Vick?

Yes. Also, get rid of Henning because even with Vick, I'm sure old man river would still find a way to neutralize him.

Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.

Well since you state it yourself that vick is a free agent at the end of the year, why would we need to trade Marshall. This is a rather useless debate. Bess, Hartline and Wallace/Moore just isnt going to get it done regardless of who's throwing the damn ball.

No. I wouldn't trade a used Kleenex for Ron Mexico.

No.
Getting a new QB won't change our coaching philosophies, our coaching staff proved that they are reluctant to change their ways because the are too damn stubborn. Not because i don't think Vick isn't a good player,'rather because he would not he put in position to succeed here. He is not your typicall drop-back passer,'we all know that; but I'm willing to het that exactly what they would try to make him in to, vs trying to utilize his unique skillset.

I don't know about the whole trading Marshall thing, but yes I would absolutely love Michael Vick in Miami.

I don't want to see Vick in Miami. He is not going to be a long term solution.

The Dolphins are the softest team in the NFL. Tua hater starting 12/11/22.

This is the correct answer.

Vick is still a long term question-mark for me. He's got a great offensive system in Philly. And, he's still a bit of a wild-card as to whether he's become a bonafide, long term NFL pocket QB who can make big plays. At the same time he is also still susceptible to injury given how he plays.

Beyond that, he has tremendous talent at Philly - two very good WR's and a great RB. He would not have that here.

I can see why SN is ripping Henne. He completed 5 passes in the game. 5! And, if the Jets WR's hold onto easily catchable passes when they are wide open - the Jets win and no one is ripping Sanchez today.

But you know, this actually sounds a lot better than a guy who'll just sit in the pocket forever (let alone makes horrid decisions vs any kind of zone coverage) and a guy who can't control his emotions (for better or for worse) and is a me-first receiver being paid $50 mil.

Can't really disagree with that. But, just not sure Vick would be what Miami fans would think. Maybe if we bring James Urban (Philly QB coach) in as the OC.

no unless he brings Reid, OC Mornhinweg, and QB coach with him

I'd be curious to see what Vick can do with this offensive line, Black Ninja, Moore, Hartline, and Lil Beast.

And if our DB's catch the other 5-6 balls that hit them in the hands we win by double digits and Henne maybe gets the ball more than one time without the endzone on his heels.

Henne played badly. But do you guys think it may just be possible that the weather and the Jests defense (who doesn't suck) maybe had a little to do with that play? Add on to it Henning being a retarded old man and what we get is a recipe for disaster.

And no to the question. Vick will go back to sucking soon. It's hard NOT to succeed with the playmakers he has on that team.

You would have to be smoking crack not to take this trade, if it were available...Vick is playing better than ever, and he would attract a ton of free agents were he to play down here.

I would make that trade in about two seconds. Henne cannot do what the coaches desire him to do, and he is getting worse instead of better. I think Henne should be arrested for impersonating a QB. No offense intended to you Henne supporters out there, I like the guy too but YiKeS! Somethings gotta give.

Skillset? He throws the ball in terror, throws INT's, fumbles, under throws receivers, throw behind receivers, and can't read or react to a broken play. This guy leading our offense is a train wreck.

One of the dumbest ideas I have ever heard of.

Getting Vick would be a disaster as he won't look nearly as good in another system, especially ours run by a blistering idiot and a senile old man, but trading away the only playmaker on our offense to get him when he becomes a FA next year? Absolutely comical.
