Vick sucks, the guy's a loser, a malcontent and crybaby. Every time he gets criticized, he flies into some whiny rage -- and sounds like some streetcorner hustler while he's doing it.
Mike Vick is a lot of things, but a mature leader is not one of them. Never will be. No class.
Physically, great arm and ridiculous speed. However, he's short, has small hands, doesn't throw a very catchable ball and is probably the most innaccurate passer in the NFL.
He will never have a great receiver, because his style is not compatible with great receivers (broken plays, no accuracy, lots of runs). Look what a couple years with Vick did to Peerless Price's career.
All this, keep in mind, has been discovered over 6+ years. Vick aint no youngster anymore. He is what he is: An exciting, whining, loser. Vick and Tomlinson came out the same year. Atlanta chose Vick; San Diego chose a Hall of Famer.

I couldn't agree with you more. The guy flipped off his own fans after a terrible performance. I mean just look at his brother. He would be in jail if it was't for his name. The apple never falls far from the tree. The guy cant even hit a reciever. So what he has a gun for an arm, he couldnt hit the right side of a barn. He is a QB! Not a RB! Let Warrick run. Stop trying to do everything yourself so you can get a NIKE deal!

I believe they should because I think Vick is many of those things among more, he isn't a quarterback, he's a running back with the arm of a quarterback, just not the intelligence or accuracy. However I don't believe they will drop him because no matter how bad he is, he'll always be an explosive and most importantly marketable image. Every kid wants to be able to run like Vick, and many look over his poor ability as a quarter back to see that. And although he doesn't get them many wins by himself, people buy tickets just to watch him play and that brings in money, so I doubt he'll get cut any time soon

Atlanta did the right thing by getting rid of the coach...Vick will only do what he is able and when you bump heads with a boss who isn't sure of his self let alone the game lots of confusion comes to play. Quarterbacks don't get to call all thse shots and they shouldn't but Vick is the MAN and I believe with either a new coach or team he will be able to perform they way he knows how. And the fact that his brother has made a bad decision doesn't make him the worst player ever heck he's a kid and his name had nothing to do with him not going to jail..lets not forget he is black, black men only get those kinda of breaks if they have money the name doens't matter at all. Good Luck next season VICK...

The Peerless Price thing would hold a lot more water if Price went on and did better than he has. I think Vick is the best thinkg the Falcons have going for them, and I'm sure about 75% of the GMs in the league would be happy to pick him up if ATL cut him. That said, they blew it not taking LT. That guy is the bomb.

1. Winning percentage of 60%+
2. Beat the Packers in the playoffs at Lambeau (never been done before)
3. Rushed for over 1000 yards this year.
4. Has the crappiest recievers ever known to man except Alge.
5. Price had one good year with my Bills because of Moulds on the other side.
Is Vick overrated? absolutely. Is he a loser? no way.
And Va Tech played Florida St in the championship

I couldn't agree more. I actually heard an ESPN analyst say that he needed more time to figure things out. 6 years should be plenty of time, unless you spend absolutely ZERO time outside of games and practice studying gameplans and film. It actually takes effort to be an effective QB. Vick relies on ability alone and will never have the drive to succeed at QB.

He was overrated long before he came to the NFL. Look what happened to him in the national championship game against Miami. Virginia Tech had absolutely NO business being in that game.

Vick is a horrible passer he shouldn't be running that much, Matt Schaub should be starting

You have a good answer to your own question.... and yes he totally sucks. Vick should be working at McDonald's next season.

Need a leader who can throw the ball, simple as that.
