    Vick was no were near the team leader Elway was, and the front office was much better in Denver.

    At least elway had a team around him.

    actually there is a simple answer to this whole thread. Atlanta sucks this year because they have back-up QB's starting. If they knew they wernt going to have Vick this year they would have gone out and gotten a starting QB.

    That said, Vick was NEVER going to win a SB as a starting QB. He had his shot in his first couple of years and he imploded both times. Since then he has gotten worse as a QB. Rushing yards are all fine and good, but even bad NFL qb's throw for twice the yards Vick can run for in a season. Vick was a college style QB, and just not fit for the NFL.

    but you cant blame vick for the falcons not winnig a superbowl, its a team remember. tom brady didnt win or get to the super bowl all by himself. and what do you mean vick is not fit for the NFL? I dont think atlanta would have gave him such a big contract if he was not fit for the NFL.

    No, you can't blame Vick for not winning the Superbowl. You can blame Jim Mora Jr.. His first year there he took the the Falcons to the NFC Championship game with mostly all of Dan Reeves players. The longer Jim Jr. was head coach the more we sucked. Now Petrino is left cleaning up his mess without Vick to rely on.

    Why is it that any time anyone who is of lesser intelligence has something bad said about them they instantly turn it into something like "I'll beat you up."

    Yes, that will get a job in the real world...I can see it now, someone will critique your resume and be like "I see here you graduated with a GED from your 'hi skewl' now I don't know if you realize but that isn't spelled correctly..." And you could reply with "It ain't spelled right but I hope you know how to spell 'I'm gonna whoop your ass'....

    Yes, keep that up. Ignorant ****.

    I don't think Petrino is really the one at fault here. He inherited a team that was built around a single player, and then that player is gone for the entire season. I think he's done a decent job for what he's had to work with. I'll give him some more time to get the personel he wants there before I say whether or not he should stay.

    I have to disagree, the coach is still the one in charge no matter what. Petrino needs to grow some ball, because he cant even control the players.

    Hey, to each there own.

    I agree that he needs to tighten the reigns on certain player (*cough*D. Hall*cough*). But you gotta remember that Jim Jr. has been there coach for the last 3 years and had absolutely no control over his team. I really do think Petrino was put inbetween a rock and a hard place when he came to Atlanta.

    Like I said, I'll reserve my judgement on Petrino until he has a chance to get the personel he wants in place.

    Coaches get paid to run the team. he needs to step up, to me he looks weak and out of place. kelly I totally agree they should have kept Dan.

    The reason Vick was the Falsons isn't because of his stellar playing, his playing was good, but certainly not the best. It was because they all didn't think they could do it without him. They looked to him for guidance (of course to an extent since he is the QB) but without him there they crumbled. They all had faith and trust in Vick and their playing was the better for it.

    But I do agree, in the long run they WILL be better off without him.

    how are they better off without vick in the long run, i bet arthur blank doesnt think so, look at all the money he is losing without vick, come on man, a game has never even come close to being blacked out when vick was playing. people keep forgetting that the NFL is "BUSINESS" people pay to see vick because he is entertaining and that equals money in the bank for the franchise.

    Hey, guess what. I got a news flash for you. VICKS GONE. None of your bellyaching or internet savvy is going to change that. He's done, finished, kaputski. Doesn't matter what Arthur Blank, Hulk Hogan or the Pop thinks about it. So who cares? You? then you are wasting your time. Work on your car, cut your grass or go visit the Red Light district because other than Mr Big flapping his fingers, there is nothing of interest in this thread.

    Awe, you two are so cute, sticking up for each other like that.

    But in response to your posts. I posted again because I can. Forums are funny like that. They allow you to voice your opinion and to rebutt others. Now, to your boyfriend i'll say that...ummm...no, I'll stay right here. Cause it's fun and enjoyable. Forums are also funny like that.

    You should give Petrino atleast a year to get things together. I mean if we had Vick and everything was legit like it was suppose to be and he did this bad then that would be a lil different. Give him a year to peice things together, then maybe things will get better. They won their 2 previous games so ya.
