Brees had more pass yards, more TDs, and a higher QB rating. But he's on a new team without LT and Gates. Vick only threw 15 TDs.

Well if I had to choose, I'd go with Brees, although he's on a new team, he has more weapons to work with, and is a steady QB.
Vick is not a starting Fantasy Quarterback, he has averaged 11 TD passes the past 3 seasons, and has had ONE three hundred yard passing game in that span....those numbers don't spell starting Fantasy QB to me....I would say if you can trade for a better QB go for it, if not Brees is the man to play.

You should look for another quarterback. This one is going to be week to week.
Remember Vick ran for 6 TD's, too. Week 1 will kill you - but it may answer your question since Vick may not survive the game against Carolina. Definitely play Brees that week. In week 3, the Falcons play the Saints. You should start Vick that week (if he's still healthy).
See if a quarterback on a good team gets injured early, and try to pick up his backup.

Michael Vick. People say how he sucks, but if you look at who he was passing to last year (Michael Jenkins and Roddy White) totally inexperienced WR corp. That's why Alge Crumpler had so many catches/yards/TDs because Vick had no one else to throw to. The WR's have their experience now and Vick will do much better.
Brees on the other hand just has Joe Horn. He will have a very tough time in that Saints offense.
Go with Michael Vick.

Vick is a bum. Start Brees. Rushing yards and TDs are uncertain in football. But teams with a bad defense usually throw alot. Brees is my choice.

It depends. Vick does get injured easily and Brees is coming off one, but Vick can move around in the pocket. I would start Brees, and look for a trade.

Yes and Brees is coming off an injury and Vick is always getting hurt.
I'd try to trade. I don't have much confidence in either of these guys for the coming season. Not in that division.

Brees, without question. Vick is vastly overrated because of his occasional flashy highlight. Brees will have D. McAllister and R. Bush in his backfield and J. Horn to throw to, so he'll be fine on his new team.
