Favre’s retirement could open door for Vick to Vikings

I can’t imagine any team would seriously consider Michael Vick as a candidate for their starting quarterback position. His passing ability, what little there is, has not improved since his days with the Falcons.

I certainly don’t expect Vick to end up with the Vikings.

The Vikings Love retreads and there is that past history with Cunningham already. Could Vick be the next QB to lose the NFC Championship on the boot of an NFC south kicker in overtime???

Well maybe, but considering he and AD carry the ball like they sweat butter… I’m thinking not likely.

Lake Minnetonka Boat Cruises anyone? Minnesota fans refuse to deal with transgressions. They cleaned house after the boat crusie scandal. Was the end of the line for Mike Tice, Daunte Culpepper, etc. They are not going to take Vick on now, especially with them already having a mobile-QB project in Tavarres Jackson on the roster (which may or may not be a bust and bringing in Sage Rosenfels last offseason).

Jeff,

For the one millionth time, Vick is not an NFL caliber Quarterback. He is simply a short, fast guy who can throw a long, tight spiral with perhaps the poorest accuracy in NFL history coupled with the IQ of a door knob.

Why is this so hard for you and others to grasp?

I can see the Vikings trading for a solid backup QB to move into #1, but I can’t see them trading for McNabb. Vick, no way, nohow.

How about Atlanta trading Redman for a draft pick? His stock has got to be the highest it has ever been.

Prediction ” After a summer of speculation and AFTER training camp, Brett Favre will board a private jet and to a packed press conference announce his return to the Minnesota Vikings because of the love of the game and his Viking teammates” The only thing Favre loves is Favre. The sports media will once again get out their knee pads and push their readership to the point of mass suicide assaulting us with everything Favre. I’m 50 yrs old and have been priviledged to watch authentic heroes of this game like Walter Payton, LeRoy Kelly, Jack Lambert, Roger Stauback, and hundreds more who knew the game was bigger than themselves and who played it with mastery and left it with quiet dignity. Brett Favre threw way his chance of breathing the rarefied air reserved for those whose greatness is matched only by their humility

As to Favre plaese stay retired! This 2010, no 1996. Next some team will try to Mr. Leroy Jordan and mr. Sam Huff to play.

Favre has lost his ability to make sound judgment. Hell never makes up for the mistake he made this year. What an idiot. He blew that game, clearly. Move on and retire.

There is talk that he could end up in Tampa. I hope he doesn’t come back to Atlanta because they are going downhill now and will have to rebuild in about 2 years. The definitely lack a quarterback and Turner only has a few more years running to help the weak passing game.

shouldn’t this blog be on a Twin Cities website? Vick will be a good fit somewhere, as a back-up with “starter” experience, should the starter go down (or underperform). the Vikings need a starter (even if Favre doesn’t retire). if the Vikes can’t find a starter via free agency or trade (McNabb is a much better scenario), they should draft the best available QB. the Jets (and Ravens, and 2005 Steelers) have proved you can win in the post-season with a rookie QB when the QB is backed by a stout defense.

First, let’s get this straight, Favre ain’t retiring anytime soon…if ever ..and certainly not before Willard Scott shows #4’s picture on the side of a Smucker’s Jar on the Today Show. I think that this is especially true after yesterday. Favre may be the third most competitive person on the planet after Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. He cares about his legacy and he does not want to “go out” with his last pass being intercepted setting a loss in a conference championship game. You really think that he wants to go through eternity being the “Bill Buckner” of the NFL. He’ll be back in Minnesota next year. ‘Course he’ll throw a crucial interception in next year’s playoff game too.

I figure Vick to end up in Buffalo with Chan Gailey. I mean Gailey, Vick, and possibly Terrell Owens (if he’s back in Buffalo next year) deserve each other. Gailey fancies himself an offensive genius and since he had a modicum of luck with Slash in Pittsburgh, he should relish the idea of trying to be the first guy in the NFL to figure out how to REALLY utilize Vick. I mean when you think about it, Vick and Reggie Ball may be the same guy. You never seen both of them in the same place at the same time, they both run all over the field and have/had erratic arms.

Vick would be an ideal fit for the Vikings. He has a strong arm, his accuracy, dispite some of you haters, is better than any QB in the league, save Manning. With their receivers and Adrian Peterson (hope to improve on his ball handling skills), Vick would make the Vikings a powerful force in the NFC. They would practically own the NFC.

You people ask why Schultz and Bradley keep writing about the Great Mike Vick? Because Vick is the best qb we’ve ever had in this town and they believe that Vick is going to succeed, and deep down you people know it also. Vick actually worked with a great coaching staff that helped him with his accuracy. I could tell that his footwork was better/changed and the throws that he made were beautiful and right on the money. I honestly believe that Vick will be better than ever and it looks like several teams believe that also.

We all know that Vick took his otherworldly talents for granted….there’s nothing like a player that has been humbled and has something to prove. Whatever team signs Vick will be lucky to have him.

I told you people that Vick would shine again…looks like I was right again…….just like I was when I predicted that his breakout would come against the Falcons….2tds…and that he would have an impact in the playoffs…….a 76yd pass right on the money for a touchdown that seems to have gotten him a starting qb job,lol.

First off, the ‘Aints didn’t win- the Vikings lost. The Vikes pushed them up and down the field all day. Indy will crush them like they did the J-E-T-S-JETS.

Secondly, Favre was obviously the missing piece for an already talented team. He truly is the greatest QB to step on the field, regardless if you love him or hate him. He’s still in the top three today, and probably will stay there despite being a member of the AARP.

Thirdly, Vick won’t go to Minnesota. The MN management hates thugs, and Vick is a thug that can’t pass.

Lastly, if Favre comes back, Minnesota will be my pick to win next year. They have a very good team with a tiny amount of wrinkles to work out. Peterson will learn to hold the ball, and Ziggy will turn Childress into a Eunich if he even thinks about making play calls like he did at the end of the the Saints game. Their coach lost the game, not the players.

PS Quit whining cheese heads. Your Offensive line is about 5 players away from giving Mr. Rogers the protection he’ll need to turn the Pack into an elite team like the Colts, Saints or Vikings.Cancerous feelings will haunt you forever because you let the greatest QB of all time go to work for your most hated enemy.

I mean if he is the terrible quarterback that you guys claim, then why are so many teams interested in him?

Why are so many networks starting the rumors

You guys should be more concerned with how the Saints, who finished in last place in 2008, has leap frogged the Falcons in 2009.

First of all, Michael Vick most certainly can still read defenses and throw accurately in the NFL, just as he used to in Atlanta with regularity.

As for the Vikings, I honestly don’t think they have given up on Tarvaris Jackson. Even if they do bring in a veteran, I think they will give Jackson a fair shot at competing for the starting job. Don’t forget, Jackson was Brad Childress’ draft pick, and they may be inclined to give Jackson a second chance after seeing how Vince Young responded to being promoted after his benching. Considering how similar in styles Vick and Jackson are, I would think they would rather have a traditional pocket passer to compete with him. That said, I would love to see Vick go to Minnesota, where he would have a great offensive line, a great running game, and very good receivers to work with.

Vick Supporter – So when you said, “Vick actually worked with a great coaching staff that helped him with his accuracy. I could tell that his footwork was better/changed and the throws that he made were beautiful and right on the money”, you meant you saw this change and improvement just in the last few games of the season and on a few select plays. That quote sounded to me like you were talking about the entire season, but now we are on the same page with regards to that.

I always like when the Vick lovers point out the poor coaching he got in Atlanta and the good coaching he got in Philadelphia this year. While I agree the coaching in Atlanta was very weak, it seems like you are already setting up an excuse if/when Vick fails. Can’t you always blame it on a coaching staff? Honestly, it is just a matter of opinion coming from fans like us whether or not someone is getting good coaching or not.

I’m no insider or anything obviously, but just based on what teams have been known to do in the past and how they may pursue this offseason I’d rank the teams who might get Vick in order of likelihood like this:

1. Buffalo
2. Carolina
3. Washington
4. St. Louis
5. Arizona (if Warner retires)
6. Kansas City
7. Oakland
8. Minnesota (if Favre retires)
9. Denver (if Orton leaves as a free agent)
10. San Francisco

It should be obvious, but Arizona or Minnesota would be the best landing spots for Vick. Oakland and Buffalo would be the worst, both due to organizational disarray and strength of division. He’d have the best chance to make the biggest impact in St. Louis — despite their terrible record this year, they could easily make a big jump in the standings next year if they add Vick, Ndamukong Suh, and a couple of other impact rookies, due to their weak division and the fact that a dome favors Vick’s speed-based game. Carolina would also be a place he could instantly make a huge impact, since that team already has a lot of necessary pieces to be a playoff team, although of course it would be tough for people who like Vick and the Falcons to pull for him if he plays for a division rival.

I hope Favre doesn’t retire. He is a warrior and there aren’t many of them around anymore. He’s the Cal Ripken type. I just think he is good for the game and as long as he can produce I would like to see him continue.

“PAY ATTENTION TO NUMBER 7″

Top-10 Brett Favre Blunders
by Tim Furious

Those of you who had the Vikings +165 to win the NFC Championship on Sunday are going to remember Brett Favre for throwing the game away in the final minute of regulation as much as you’ll relive his insanely resilient performance to gut it out. We all know that he’s amassed milestones, won over hearts and had plenty of memorable performances. Yet the 2009-10 NFC Championship game was a cruel reminder to Favre’s backers that he’s been as deplorable as he’s been delightful.

10. Lambeau Opener in 2006 Against Bears

It’s not he biggest loss of his career, but 2006 was the beginning of the “Will He Won’t He Retirement Tour That Never Ends”. Favre opened the game with just five passes for 70 yards and tossed two picks in the second half to lose the game 0-26. So why is this a big deal? It’s the only shutout that Brett Favre ever endured when he lasted the whole game.

9. His Entire 2005 Season

Every legend is allowed one bad season, but this was one for the ages. Brett’s Packers won just four games that season, while Favre threw for 3,881 yards, 18 touchdowns a career high 29 interceptions. It was his lowest overall season quarterback rating at just 70.9 though it wasn’t without its excuses. Javon Walker, Bubba Franks and Ahman Green, the team’s best offensive weapons, were all on the shelf with various injuries and Favre’s offensive line had lost two key players in Marco Rivera and Mike Wahle.

8. Five Picks Against Cincinnati In 2005

The Packers were just 1-5 SU at this point and in desperate need of a victory. Brett connected on 26-of-39 passes in this game, but if you include the five interceptions that landed in the hands of Bengals’ defenseman, he has 31! Each time the Packers looked like they were going to stage a road upset over the 6-1 SU Bengals, Favre gave the ball away. Tragically, the Packers lost 14-21 and on the final play of the game Favre scrambled past the line of scrimmage by about five yards…then tried to pass the ball forward. But hey, I bet had a blast doing it! The fun never ends with Brett Favre!

7. NFC Wild Card Upset Against Vick’s Falcons

With Michael Vick as a rookie quarterback in the 2003 Wild Card Playoffs, nobody gave him a chance in hell of going in to Lambeau and upsetting the heavily favored Packers. Then the Falcons put up a 24-0 lead going in to the half and the crowd turned to Brett to keep their undefeated home playoff record intact.

Brett opened the second half with a brilliant touchdown drive…followed by six possessions that involved four turnovers, two of which belonged to Brett in the form of a fumble and a pick. At this point in his career, it was impossible to teach an old dog like Brett new tricks in the post season which makes it ironic that he’d be upset by the puppy assassinating Vick.

6. Six Picks Against Rams in 2002 Playoffs

Brett has always had that magical knack for fooling us in to thinking that he could throw a ball right through Mt. Everest or concuss a charging rhino with his grenade launching arm and boyish grin. So when Brett was matched up against the vaunted Greatest Show on Turf, led by destined hall of famer Kurt Warner, there were those that thought Brett could somehow pull this one out of his khaki shorts. Instead of a victory, Favre gave the Packers’ fans six interceptions, three of which were returned for scores.

5. 2008 Jets Slam in to Interception Mountain

At the time we had no idea that Eric Mangini was holding out on us concerning Brett’s torn bicep. But in the final five games of the season, with the Jets holding on to an 8-3 SU record, Brett’s gun slinging charm wasn’t enough to bully them in to the playoffs. The Jets finished 1-4 SU and Brett piled up just two touchdowns completely offset by 9 interceptions the final five games of the season.

4. 2007-08 NFC Championship Against Giants

In Brett’s final game as a Packer, and with his final pass in the green and gold, the NFC Championship game went to overtime after Mason Crosby was able to nail a field goal to tie the game at twenty apiece. Green Bay got the ball off the coin flip, and in his first and only pass of extra time, Favre shot a pass straight to cornerback Cory Webster. The Giants never gave the ball back and booted a 47-yarder to win the game. Sound familiar?

3. Laying Down for Strahan in 2001

In a wildly contested NFL record, Michael Strahan edged the season sack record of 22.0 by Mark Gastineau by “sacking” Favre. In fact, Favre basically sat on the ground so his buddy could steal the record from the former New York Jet. Some defend this by saying that Favre didn’t want to get blasted by a viscious Strahan hit, but he was hardly in harms way of getting blind sided and this is also a quarterback who was renowned for his scrambling ability. It was less of a sack and more of Favre bending over so that Strahan could score a reach around and wiggle in to the record books.

2. “I’m Retiring…Just Kidding!”

You’ve all been there…twice. It’s nothing I want to relive, although I may be forced to this summer. We were bludgeoned over the head with articles documenting his greatest moments and his staggering career achievements. Then we were smothered with reports of the “Will He, Won’t He?” variety. Now it’s just the Retirement Tour that never ends, kind of like Jay Leno’s but with less poor comedy.

At this point, however, it’s impossible to say that Favre doesn’t deserve the chance to think about it. Sure he practically held the Vikings and Jets at gunpoint while he waffled on retiring, but his performance this season was one of his best. He’s one of the greatest quarterbacks that ever lived, and I’m not entirely sure that “Team Tavaris” has any active members other than his mother. Still…it’s annoying.

1. Brett Tosses Fatal Pick Against Saints

Brett was stuffed in to the turf of the Superdome a billion times in this game, and got back up every time like he was starring in his own rendition of Rocky. Despite costly fumbles, the Vikings were in range to upset the Saints on their own turf and with the Vikings in field goal range, Favre scrambled out of the pocket on third down with less than a minute to go.

You could hear all of Minnesota screaming, “THROW IT AWAY! PLEASE FOR THE LOVE GOD, THROW IT AWAY!”. You could almost hear Green Bay’s jilted fans chuckling to themselves, “Here it comes…”

And it did.

Favre needlessly tried to force a pass across his body to Sidney Rice, that was picked off and sealed the fate of the Vikings who were unable to stave off elimination by the Saints in overtime.

How does this rank as the worst blunder in a career that spanned 19-years? Because of the ramifications. He had survived being raped by Saints’ defenders throughout the game, and the Vikings somehow kept the score close despite a brutal amount of giveaways. He didn’t need to throw that pass. He didn’t need to be a hero. In a season where he had taken deliberate measures to avert making mistakes, throwing just 7 interceptions all season, Favre made the dumbest decision of all at the worst time possible.

For the one millionth time, Vick is not an NFL caliber Quarterback. He is simply a short, fast guy who can throw a long, tight spiral with perhaps the poorest accuracy in NFL history coupled with the IQ of a door knob.

Despite playing in the west coast offense for his last few years in the league, I do not think that it is the best fit for Michael Vick. (Note that the Vikings made the playoffs last season without Farve.) Some of my friends and I thought that he was a better fit for Dan Reeves’ offensive system than the west coast offense. If it were up to me, Vick would be playing in a more vertical offense. Heck, it is just my opinion and me.

Vick will land somewhere for sure but who could rely on him as the franchise QB? I don’t think that even Al Davis would put all of his eggs in this basket, look at where it got Blank, some of them maybe but I don’t see any owner trusting his first string QB money on Vick. Look, I know that there is a segment of Vick supporters that thought he walked on water then and now. I saw it live when Reeves was still bringing him along slowly and had to hear the cascade of boos when he platooned him, standing O’s when he bounced out of the pocket and gained a couple of yards. Laughed heartily at one of the blinded Vick athletic supporters above with this gem “He has a strong arm, his accuracy, dispite some of you haters, is better than any QB in the league, save Manning.” This is obviously someone who never watched him play, or Favre, or Brees, or Brady….

His strength was his cat-like quickness and word is he’s lost a step. He is best suited as a role player much like he was this year but perhaps with an OC that is more inclined to do Wildcats and even employ him as a throwing halfback. There are too many minuses to make him your starting QB both mentally and physically. You can’t discount the show business side of the NFL however and the money. Purple number 7 jerseys would sell like hot cakes but after hemming and hawing and playing the prima donna Favre will return after the mostly successful season he just had and Vick wouldn’t be a fit in Minnesota anyway. A Raiders number 7 jersey would sell even better and I don’t think his stock is up enough to get the big bucks, certainly more than the million for this past season, but Al Davis could get a reasonable price here on a guaranteed draw.

“I have to agree with MCook” on this one.

However, Vick is done in Atlanta because why would he want to play for an organization that has a 44 year losing mentality, when winning organizations are knocking on his door.

Vick put this sorry franchise on the map and in just one game (Dec 6) he brought it down again. They are more happy with “Non-Playoff” 9-7 seasons, when other teams like Baltimore, Philly, Minnesota, New England, etc call their seasons a FAILURE because they lost in the playoffs, while the Falcons fans are satisfied with a 72 million dollar CHOKE who can’t win a freakin playoff game.

Therefore MCook is right, Vick is done in Atlanta – but on Vick’s terms

A winning season is not a failure for a team who is re-building because of the previous QB life choices.

Again, this team was on a downward slump Vick’s last two seasons so in reality all worked out well.

No elite team is knocking down Vick’s door to get him. The elite in Philly brought your man in to be a 3rd string wildcat pawn who didn’t even do that well enough to get them to the big game. He was the same there as he was here. A few good plays now and then but could never lead the team to a 4th quarter come back win. By the way Matt has done that several times.

THIS SEASON, BECAUSE OF INJURIES, PICKS BY RYAN, AND CHIP SHOT MISSED FG’S BY JASON ELAM, the Falcons failed miserably by going 9-7 and missing the playoffs. Ryan was a pick machine because his offensive line didnt give him enough protection. If we get an offensive lineman as big as former Chicago Bear William “The Refrigerator” Perry, Ryan will have enough time to find any receiver on the field, PLUS make as many cell phone calls as he wants to.

Choke: The Ryan Express will live on and continue on. It has been estimated by a multitude of current HOFs that Matt Ryan had a rookie season unlike anyone who has ever played in the NFL. In fact Steve Young, current HOF’er said that Ryans Rookie season was played like a hall of famer. That is the highest amount of praise you can get from anyone. Think about this, there have been great college quarterbacks who never made it in the pros: two come to mind right away. Danny Wierrfel and Ryan Leaf. Both guys were tremendously talented in college and were destined for greatness, although neither made it in the pros. At least Ryan has made it and will continue to get better until he is the best quarterback in the league. Ryan is headed in that direction and it is obvious that he will get there.

Vick Supporter: guess what I just got in the mail today Choke?

Choke: I don’t have a glue VS.

VS: It’s an official sweaty Vick jock strap!!! Wanna sniff?

Choke: Oh yes please please and don’t be a tees!!

VS: Oh I wish I could be like Mike, sitting on a bench getting gatorade and a clip board for Mcnabb.

Choke: Yes that would be fantastic! I wonder what goes through Vicks mind when he’s called in to be a wildcat man?

VS: Don’t tell anyone I said this because I will smack your little bottom, but I bet he worries if he will fumble or throw an interseption.

Choke: Oh don’t say that. Ah……VS pass the jock strap I need another hit. sniff sniff Mmmmm that’s some good stuff.

VS: It’s not as sweaty as I thought it would be.

Choke: You know you’re right. Must be because 3rd sting QB wildcat pawns don’t in the game much and get to sweaty.

VS: Must be. Oh who cares he still cute sitting their pouring that gatorade. Mmmm just look at him.

“Sources close to Vick fully anticipate him playing elsewhere in 2010, and say he is intent on being a starter if at all possible. Such opportunities should arise. Clubs to keep a close eye on include Buffalo, St. Louis, Carolina, Oakland and Jacksonville.”

MAN, look at those top-tier teams fighting for Vick’s services! That’s amazing!! I can’t believe the superb talent at QB whose jobs Vick wants to take…Bulger, Delhomme, Russell, Edwards, Garrard. That is SUCH as testament to Vick’s appeal.

After the mess Vick left this team in, back to back winning seasons is a big deal to the fans.

You say I have low self-esteem…..now that’s funny coming from a guy who supports a 3rd string QB who had a chance to lead this team to back to back winning seasons but couldn’t and who talks about a QB who has a QB rating of 10 in a playoff game.

Again Choke you don’t read my blogs very well. I’m a Falcon(team)fan not a player fan like you. I have said several times that if Ryan don’t cut it then cut him. But he has proven he can and will be an NFL QB for quite awhile. You would have toasted Peyton Manning his first two seasons with the Colts if you weren’t a 4 years old in pre-school and knew what football was.

Silly little 3rd string QB fan. BWAA!! HA!! HA!!

Vick Supporters: If Vick is as great as you say he is then why couldnt Vick stop the curse of back to back losing seasons? Only Matt Ryan could stop the curse because Matt Ryan is headed for the HOF once his playing days have ended possibly 20 years from now. Ryan will break EVERY SINGLE qb record known to mankind and he will be a certain first ballot HOF.

GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN (TICKER) —Michael Vick began building his playoff resume with a historic win.

In his postseason debut, Vick passed for a touchdown and created havoc with his feet as the Atlanta Falcons rolled to a 27-7 NFC wild card victory over the Green Bay Packers, who suffered the first home playoff loss in franchise history.

The NFL’s youngest quarterback at 22, Vick outplayed three-time Most Valuable Player Brett Favre, who had been 35-0 at Lambeau Field when the game-time temperature was 34 degrees or less. Saturday’s temperature was 28 and the contest was played through light snow.

ADVERTISEMENT

The Packers (12-5) also were 13-0 all-time at home in the playoffs, including an 11-0 mark at storied Lambeau Field. They were the only unbeaten team during the regular season with an 8-0 record.

None of that bothered the Falcons or Vick, who played mistake-free in his playoff debut.

Only the 1991 Saints began a season with as many wins.

”We did a lot of things well and yet we did a lot of things that made it close at the end,” coach Sean Payton said. ”I’m excited to win though. I’m excited to win this game and get to 7-0. It was an important game against a division team and I’m proud of our players. They fought.”

Greer’s touchdown was the Saints’ fifth score on an interception this season, tying a single-season franchise mark set in 1998. Tracy Porter also had an interception on the Saints 1-yard line on a pass tipped by Jonathan Vilma in the fourth quarter, preserving a 28-24 lead after Thomas’ fumble had given Atlanta the ball on the Saints 35.

Atlanta’s Matt Ryan was intercepted three times, his third consecutive game with at least two picks.

After the game, as QB Michael Vick was leaving the field, he flicked off an insulting fan with both hands. He was fined $10,000 from the NFL and had to donate another $10,000 to charity. With their fourth-straight loss, the Falcons fell to 5-6.

Still aint working Choke.

No matter what you say Matt Ryan is still a starter and Vick is still a 3rd string QB soon to be out of that job. If I were you I would go to the Eagles board and slam on Reid for taken advantage of your boy. It’s now a fact he was brought in for nothing more than hopeful trade bait.

Ahh…..don’t cry Choke it will be ok………I promise.

Can we finally stop anointing players that haven’t done anything the next Manning or Brady. Last year Matt Ryan threw 16tds to 11 ints and they acted like the guy was throwing it all over the field and on his way to breaking every Brett Favre passing record. He was called one of the top 5 QB’s coming in this year and what has he done. 13tds to 10ints and he looks antsy in the pocket. He is averaging 2 picks a game in his last four and looks like a rookie QB. I like him as player

So, how is that boycott the NFL because of Michael Vick movement going? How about the sentiment that everyone hates Brett Favre? When taking a look at the highest selling jerseys in the NFL at present, we stumble upon a more apt word in describing the two: Polarizing. Sure, there are plenty of people who loathe both players, but there are plenty on the other side of the fence. The numbers don’t lie.

Darren Rovell of CNBC.com has published a list of the top-20 selling jerseys at NFLShop.com from April 1 to August 28. Favre’s Vikings jersey is the top seller, and Vick’s Eagles top checks in at number four.

The rankings are especially staggering when you consider the short amount of time people have had to stock up on the jerseys of these two. Vick signed August 14 and Favre signed August 18. That means in two weeks (for Vick) or less (Favre), these two have pummeled the competition since April 1.

Choke: its true that vick is #4 in jersey sales. But in the game of life Vick is dead last. No one would trade their life for Vicks because Vicks life is pathetic. He is a former jailbird and will end up back in jail in the not too distant future. Vick is and has always been a scandal waiting to happen. An investigation is now being done on Vick into possible steroid use. If Vick is guilty of that, depending on the logistics of when, where he used steriods and under what jurisdiction he was in, Vick may land himself back into the state penitentiary again. The book has not been closed on Vick and trouble will continue to find Vick as long as he lives.

It’s sad everyone seems intent on bashing both Favre, and Vick. First of all, farve’s interception at the end of that game was nothing more than the end of a whole string of bad outcomes…. I truly believe that his pick wouldn’t have mattered if the Vikes hadn’t fumbled 6 times that game, which I believe kept us from at least 1 more touchdown. Next, Vick is a solid player who gets the short end of the stick because people can’t get over his animal cruelty conviction. I admit h doesn’t have the kind of accuracy you see in other star quarterbacks, but he is still young, and i think could be a strong asset to the Vikes.

I hope Favre gives it one more season with us, but vick would be an adequate choice… behind McNabb… btw screw the Packers!

Hmmm, wow, a perfect cross-posting of two players a lot of people have no “in-between” feelings on right now! :-p

1) For those who say “this is an Atlanta sports blog, why are you here?,” remember that these feeds typically get posted through Google News, so you’re going to get lots of “tourists.”

2) 85′ Bears made a good point, which is that if Rex Grossman can “lead” his team to a SB, then just about any NFL QB can. Minnesota has a great defense and a lot of offensive weapons. Everyone acts like they were dismal without Favre. But in fact, they won their division in ‘08 and they didn’t have Favre OR Percy Harvin then.

3) Favre won’t retire. This speculation will be moot.

4) There’s a 95% chance that Favre will put up MVP numbers in 2011. Also a 95% chance he’ll throw a boneheaded interception to end his team’s playoff run.

5) Vick defenders love to cite his marketability as if that’s what the hell we’re talking about. Bert Blyeven wasn’t one of the world’s most marketable baseball players…does that mean that I would have wanted Mark Fidrych over him? Yeah, we get it: Vick packs the stadium. But you don’t build a team going “let’s get the one guy that fills the seats.” You build a team saying “let’s build a winner and then it won’t matter who suits up, we’ll always fill the seats.”

A lot of fans hate the Steelers, but guess what? Their popularity isn’t beholden to one player. Fans of teams like that are absolutely laughing at the Vickolytes right now because they would have moved on. The moment you say “we gotta bring this guy back to fill the seats,” you may as well put on a big billboard that reads “I’M A GREAT BIG LOSER.”

6) Vick on the Vikings? Could work although it would require revamping the playbook. A Favre offense and a Vick offense: one of these things is not like the other. Vick’s not terribly accurate (spare me the “he got crisper in Philly” crap, he was 6-13 on pass attempts) but it would turn a team that’s already one of the fastest in the league into an even faster team. It’d be an all-out track meet. Defenses would huff-and-puff trying to keep up.

7) If I was the Vikings, I’d aim to get McNabb. He’d be the right fit, IMO.
