Vick an Eagle

[wayne1218]

He wasn't in a position to pick where he wanted to go. He's lucky he got picked up this year. He is in debt over his eyeballs so all he is looking for is a paycheck.

Say what you want about Philly's QB, receivers, and running backs. None of them can do what Vick does.....their stable of receivers isn't that good anyway

I know that. I guess what i'm saying is Minnesota should have signed him.

And how do you know what Vick can do? He hasn't played in how long? Jeremy Maclin, DeSean Jackson and Kevin Curtis are all better WR options than Vick. McNabb is a better QB and Westbrook and McCoy are both better RB's. Vick wants to play QB and he was signed as an insurance policy for McNabb and nothing else imo.

You put Vick on the field in place of any of the above and you are not better.

Good for Vick. Hopefully some of the wackos out there learn some perspective and realize that while what he did was wrong and illegal, there are much worse things to happen in life.

as an eagles fan i am happy to have him on the team because of his athletic abilities.

I do think he will be a "slash" or "wildcat" type of player and what better player to play in the "wildcat" than the dude that pretty much invented it ?

"And how do you know what Vick can do?" Exactly, how do you know that he can't replicate what he did in Atlanta. Gave McNarry a run for his money in the playoffs. Also, Andy Reid already said they will find ways to integrate Vick into the offense outside of QB. Also, I would rather have Vick at receiver than Kevin Curtis. I would have liked to see him go to Minny as well but VICK WILL BE A FORCE WHEREVER HE GOES. We are quick to forget his talents and abilities. Sure its been two years but he is still young as hell. IMO, by year end everyone will be talking about Vick again like they were before he left the game.

Vick is washed up

Am I a worse person than "killer" if I wish for a career-ending injury? After said injury - he'll still be able to film his PSA's and sling burgers, just not play football and receive the adoration of a hero. He's a piece of shit regardless of how much prison time he's served....that may have technically paid his debt to society, but it hasn't paid his debt to humanity.

Vick signing divides Eagles fans

Vick signing divides Eagles fans
By halftime, the Linc was buzzing: Michael Vick was an Eagle. Suddenly, no one seemed to care much about the preseason game against the New England Patriots on Thursday night. All that mattered to most fans was that the disgraced quarterback had joined their team. Even though five-time Pro Bowl quarterback Donovan McNabb is the man on the Philadelphia Eagles, the team gave Vick a one-year deal with an option for a second year.

Im a Eagle season ticket holder and im not happy. From a football stand point he as never a good QB. He was an athlete yes but not a QB. His completion % is around 53. Im tired of hearing about this wildcat stuff to. This the NFL gimmicks dont work. D-cords will have it figured out this year.
What sucks is every game i go to im going to have to see all the protesters. It's going to be such a pain in the ass. Plus I own a pit bull. So that makes me not like him more.
