Start Byron Leftwich, you can't compare stats from last year because Leftwich missed 5 games at the end of the season (and he still had as many TD's as Vick). The first time Vick gets hit hard he'll fold like he usually does with some injury anyways. You need the points for the passing yards and the TD's in the air, play Leftwich.

Hands down Start Leftwich! The man was on pace for 24 passing TDs last year. By the way I do not need to go back to last years stats Vick points per game were lower than Leftwich!!! Mike Vick is a great guy to have on your team, he is very elusive, but his fantasy numbers are generally bad!
Leftwich is a good choice, if he stays healthy, if not his backup I believe D. Gerrard is also a stud, if possible you maybe should think of a trade for Vick and see what you can get, and handcuff Gerrard off of waivers in you Free Agent pool.

Depends on the scoring system. Vick will get points running and should be improved passing the ball so I would roll with him instead of Leftwich. Byron lost his #1 WR and is an injury risk. Vick also is more valuable on the trade market so if he starts out hot maybe yu can trade him to some sucker for a better QB. Good luck!

Had Vick last year and he was, and probably will be again, VERY up and down. He'll have 1 great weekend and then 3 poor or marginal ones. I'd go with Leftwich although from what I've been reading Leftwich isn't a lock for the starting job in Jacksonville

Vick isn't a top QB nor is Leftwhich - I think Leftwich is a safer bet in terms of fantasy football upside this year.

Byron Leftwich is a better pick. Vick will not need to worry about offense as much as last year with the defensive additions the Falcons made. Go with Leftwich.

Vick is clearly better than Leftwhich, look at last years stats.

i know Vick is a beast (i have him on all 3 of my fantasy teams) but he CANNOT be your starter in a fantasy league!!! he is more about winning than stats...he IS however a reliable #2 QB. Byron should have WAY better passing stats because of Reggie Williams and Matt Jones. Vick will improve his passing stats in the next 2 years or so.

the first week start leftwhich cause vick is going 2 get killed facing the panthers. so if he does happen to be able to walk out the panthers stadium start him the rest of the season.
