Vick Officially Named Starting QB

[AMDZen]

I'm just mad that Vick and his 2 TD and 4 INT somehow managed to get 2 more fantasy points than Brady with his 2TD and 0 INT. nearly identical yards numbers, as well.

WTF??

Quite simple

10 yards on the ground = 1 pt

20/25 yards in the air = 1 pt

not that simple, actually. just looked at the point breakdown.

so, his INTs negated all of this TD points (8). the passing/running yards only gave him a total of 3 points more than Brady (just for yards--Brady still gets credit for his TDs)

the 2 point bump, in comparison to Brady this week, came from 2 Tackles...guessing Vick was in on Tackling 2 of those INTs?

Why would Andy fatass Reid run with one of the 5 best running backs in the nfl when he could pass with one of the 5 worst QB's?

Which still means he did as well as Brady in Fantasy. Whiners gonna whine and haters gonna hate.

Andy won't do it. Not yet, anyway.

104.2 rating, over 100 again and they lose this time.

That's Vick's rating? Does the official QBR stat include fumbles?

I find this list more accurate:
http://www.coldhardfootballfacts.com/stats/2012/6/QBR/

Has Vick ranked in the same tier as other highly paid superstars like Blaine Gabbert, Ryan Tannehill, Matt Cassell, Brandon Weeden, and Sanchez/Tebow. BARF.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Well....................is he still mediocre? Is he still Over-rated? LOL
What do the qb experts have to say now? hehehehehehehehe

You tell me. :awe:

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

It's amazing two different teams have given this guy 100+ million dollar contracts only to see him fail miserably. Sure the flashes of brilliance are enticing but look at the body of work.

From last year.. Feels good when you're right.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

From last year.. Feels good when you're right.

But...but...but...he's ELITE!

 

[AMDZen]

Several seasons of excellence? Lol. Does he have moments of brilliance? Definetely. He has a great game and is a good qb but not greatxand not top 10.

Every year the chargers start slow, play like shit even. This pick it up and play great until the playoffs and then suck ass and make a first round exit.

Rivers and Romo are the same. They are not good leaders and that's why both may go their whole careers without winning a championship. Both good qbs that are sometimes great and are both assholes and terrible leaders.

Cutler may have this problem too. Vick too even. There are others that fit this description but to single out Vick is pretty funny. Alex smith will get closer to sniffing the Lombardi trophy then rivers ever will.

Yes it does feel good to be right

 

[AMDZen]

LOL @ everyone jumping at Vick not having as good a year. DeSean Jackson gives up on routes and couldn't care less half the time. His o-line completely blows. The play calling blows.

And yet nobody is giving Philip Rivers shit for sucking ass this year more than just about any QB, even though he has consistently played his worst when it matters most.

I was right on this too. DeSean Jackson even admitted that he gave up on routes and shit last year. Can't believe they still have that guy around. He isn't a weapon, he is a liability.

Any chance I have to call out Rivers for being a bitch, I take that too.

 

[RPD]

You just hate him because of his off field character, quit hating.

Me? On Rivers? I hate him because he's a whiny little douche bag jerk off that I wouldn't like even if he didn't play for one of the Broncos division rivals. Since he does play for the Chargers, as an avid Broncos fan I hate him even more.

Luckily I have season tickets that are 30 rows up from the away teams bench and have regularly gotten to cruise down and tell him exactly what I think of him right to his face

No, he was referring to a certain individual earlier in this thread who thought Vick was an elite QB and hinted that anyone who didn't think so had "off the field problems" with Vick. I notice that this particular person hasn't bothered returning to the thread to admit he as completely wrong about Vick, which might gain him a little respect.

 

[RPD]

It takes a big man to admit they are wrong.

 

[EagleKeeper]

And now he gets to prove himself at 3-3 against his old team that is 6-0

 

[IndyColtsFan]

I imagine that if they lose big, Vick's career as a starting QB for the Eagles is done.

 

[Kev]

Yes it does feel good to be right

As an Eagles fan I would have preferred to be wrong

 

[Kev]

How does anyone know vick is better? Kolb got 1 half to prove himself in a real NFL start. All this does is put off the Eagles' rebuilding process for one year, maybe more, because they aren't winning shit this year.

Vick is essentially a running back who can kinda throw the ball ok. He has 2 years left before he falls off considerably.

Wow... said 2 years ago. LOL

 

[KLin]

Vick sucks big fat donkey dong.

 

[Perknose]

Vick sucks big fat donkey dong.

Not all his fault, the O-line, decimated by crucial injuries, really, really sucks.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

I think I was wrong saying Vick was a mediocre QB. He is probably below average.

 

[Blackjack200]

All Andy Reid needs to do to keep his job now is go 8-2 the rest of the way
