Mike Vick Reinstated--Where Does He End Up?

i'm always amazed at how envious some people can be. he'll make hundreds of thousands of dollars, and you won't.

if he were a former plumber who went to prison for dog fighting, he'd probably work as a plumber again once he was released and you wouldn't give a shit. so how is this different? is your obvious jealousy clouding your thinking?

I hope you keep the NFL commentary going this year, as last year was a blast. My opinion, Vick wont go to the Vikes, minnesota will not accept him as a community. Or the redskins, FLAT OUT, washington doesnt have money to spend. I would say Broncos or San francisco is a given, Denver NEEDS to make a move so i would almost guarantee Vick going there as it would save Josh McDaniels Job, if vick works out. My guess is Denver at this point, Josh mcdaniels has to be willing to gamble, especially with the imminent loss of Brandon Marshall. Browns is a definate NO, Quinn will start this season.


Anyways keep the commentary going this NFL season i promise i will participate, last year was fun and you definately have a worthwhile opinion when it comes to football.

Just my honest opinion

Thanks for the kind words. I enjoyed doing the commentary last year but it was a bit time-consuming. Not sure if I'll be able to do it this time around.

I wonder about Denver. I agree with everything you wrote, but Vick is about as far from Tom Brady as you can get, so I wonder if McDaniels would want to go in his direction.

Washington has cap issues, but I think they could easily free up enough space for Vick. It's not like he'll be getting a Haynsworth sized deal. A bigger issue might involve the fact that both Vick and incumbent Redskins QB Jason Campbell share the same agent, Joel Segal.

Good points. I don't condone what he did, but he served two years hard time, which seems pretty harsh.

I am curious about speculation over possible fan or sponsor reaction. I think it will be minor, at least in most NFL cities.

Now that you mention it I have always had a secret admiration for animal abusers and convicted felons.

You're probably right. Most die hard sports fans just want to watch their favorite athlete play their favorite game, they care about little else.

Never knew they had the same agent, that solidifies no Washington in my eyes, I really think that as a young coach McDaniels is feeling the pressure, while he would like to run a Strict Bellicheck type system, he doesnt have a chance. He knows if he loses marshall as well he is toast when Denver has a couple losing seasons which is inevitable if that plug Orton gets to play. Look at Ortons numbers with a VERY well balanced chicago team, Denver will be a joke if they lose Marshall and start Orton, atleast if they pick up Vick it will keep the defense somewhat honest instead of flat out pass protection, Picture Orton When teams are able to stack against the pass, as denver has no run game.... he is screwed.

I think Marshall ends up in Baltimore for a bunch of draft picks..... To replace Derek Mason......Baltimore is 1-2 key players off of a super bowl in my opinion, they look eerily similar to the '06 steelers when Roethlesberger was going into his second year. Flacco can complete all the passes, and will only get better this year.
 
Just read on Bloomberg that Vick is favored by Odds what or whoever that is to go to either Pitt. or NE. Sheez, talk about moving to the front of the line.

AAA - no way I see him here. We already have a controversy with 2 QB's, can't see a 3rd being added to the mix (at least for now).

Quinn will start this season for the browns and be mediocre, as any first year started normally is...

I feel sorry for you Browns Fan, the Browns and Bengals are 100% guaranteed to not win that division before the season even starts.

You think Stallworth will be allowed to play??

Can you provide a Link?? Although Worthlesberger is clutch in the home stretch i would love to see him out for a season and Vick taking the helm in Steel town, it would add a totally new dynamic to their offense, and their piss poor offensive line....

It was from television. That would be interesting in spite of my personal opinions of Vick to see his much ballyhooed potential
realized there. With Ward and Holmes to throw to and his threat with scrambling ...yeah entertaining. Why I watch.
