settle down people...hes just a body in the mix...50/50 he even makes the team

[Sgt PSN]

The last QB they signed to be a body in the mix ended up with a $100 mil.

[ice grillin you]

you arent seriously comparing the signing of michael vick to trent edwards are you?

are you?

[Sgt PSN]

I am. But not seriously.

[reese125]

its not even about him just being a body or 50/50 he makes it--its the fact that they even picked up the phone to listen to his agent

[ice grillin you]

its not even about him just being a body

actually it really is all about that

[DH]

I'd be willing to bet heavy that he will be Vick's backup coming out of camp...

"Just a body" or not, you're looking at a guy who will be starting 2-4 games for your Philadelphia Eagles.

[ice grillin you]

I'd be willing to bet heavy that he will be Vick's backup coming out of camp...

he might be....but only if he deserves it (theoretically)...if he wins the backup competition by having a very good camp and preseason showing he can run the offense then im fine...if he doesnt then he will be cut

the much bigger problem is that the starting qb cant win a superbowl....i tend to focus more on that than on some guy they sign in february who may not even make the team

i think its burying the lead by concentrating on vick missing games because this insinuates hes awsome as long as hes healthy...and that couldnt be further from the case

[DH]

eli farging manning has won 2 super bowls; I refuse to believe Vick can't win one..

[ice grillin you]

eli manning has turned himself into one of the best qb's in the nfl...something vick hasnt done and never will at this stage of his career

i mean its hard to argue a negative...i call it the trent dilfer argument....so in that case i guess i agree that vick can win a superbowl....but hes a much bigger issue/problem than trent edwards and i personally dont see a 5-10 running qb ever winning one

[Drunkmasterflex]

He may not be able to win a SB but him staying on the field is definitely important. The final four teams QBs did not miss a start all season.

i personally dont see a 5-10 running qb ever winning one

randall would have made it happen if it werent for bryce paup

[SunMo]

randall was also 7'-4", or so it seemed

[ice grillin you]

that was the most blatant attempt of someone going out of their way to drop a bryce paup that ive ever seen

[Rome]

When Paup signed in Jacksonville I went to a Jaguars game wearing my Randall jersey and gave him two fingers when he ran in and off the sideline.

100% true story.
