    You still proclaim them to be a great team now that Vick is back? A 38-7 thrashing shows that their team still sucks, and their players are still laying down. Your belief that they waited for Vick to come back and start playing was baseless.

    Say what you want, but they played one of the better teams in the league in the Colts...

    I will admit that their offensive line didn't do much in the way of protection...

    Having said that, there's no denying the fact that they'll be competitive to win their last two games, and the fact that people were saying that if he won the last four games of his season, that some would vote for him as the MVP is proof positive that if this team wins its last two, it's obvious that they have no cojones...

    It was premature, but it was grounded in me watching a football game, and having seen the Falcons play Vickless thrice this season...and once WITH Vick (once at the Cowboys, and twice versus the Aints, and then at Carolina)...

    Vick is obviously a great athlete...one of the best, but i do not think he'll have a great NFL career.

    give me a great drop back passer (ahem...like Manning).

    Yeah...Two guys (in Marino and Manning)...

    Between the two of them...

    ZERO RINGS

    One SuperBowl (In Marino's 82 rookie season), and NO playoff wins for the other (Manning)...

    Vick's got what Manning doesn't in only one year with NO ONE AROUND HIM LAST YEAR, and Vick has a better chance to go to the Super Bowl that Manning will in the future...

    The NFC is a weak conference, and the AFC Super Bowl path will always lead through either Foxboro or Nashville, where dome teams go to die...

    I agree Vick can single-handledly win football games....more than any other player in the NFL......not Moss, Holmes, Manning, McNabb or anyone else has the impact that Vick has.

    WEll know the best Quarterback in the history of the NFL was either
    Bobby Hebert of the New Orleans Saints.
    Or

    Kevin Sweeney - Dallas Cowboys.
    ;)

    Dan Marino didn't have any help either.
    He has most of the NFL records......
    He never had a running game.

    OK TE,

    I'll take John Elway over your guy anyday.

    Now, what do you have to say.

    I'll bet you John Elway has at least 1 more Superbowl ring than
    your guy will ever have.
