Oh great, Joe Theisman doing a Michael Vick game on Thursday night.
He is one of the most sacked quarterbacks in the league. 4 of the top 11 most sacked quarterbacks are black. So much for being mobile. McNabb, Garrard, Campbell and Vick.bigunreal said:The Mike/Michael Vick story certainly is a heartwarming one. Against all odds, the most overrated athlete of all time leaves prison after two years, looks rusty in limited action last season and is atrocious in preseason play this year. Then, after a very fortuitous injury to Kevin Kolb, the same guy who struggled mightily the week before in preseason (against reserves) lights up the NFL from the moment he steps under center.
Yes, an older, rustier Mike/Michael Vick, who was wildy inaccurate, especially on his deep throws, during his tenure with the Falcons, has suddenly become laser sharp on all throws, no matter the length. His previously horrific offensive line appears to have caught this magic as well, as he now enjoys maximum protection on nearly ever throw. Of course, when he is pressured, he is impossible to sack, much as he is nearly impossible to intercept now, too.
This story is so ridiculous that Hollywood would reject it.

This was true before Vick ever started. DeSean Jacksons big seasons he was criticized for getting most of his yards on blown coverages, more than any other receiver in the league. Its just bad db play. Notice how his worst game was when DeSean Jackson was held in check. The blueprint was laid on how to stop Vick a few weeks ago, why the Texans didn't try and do that, I don't know.alln2 said:bigunreal said:...

He lights up the NFL because the opposing defenders are willingly allowing him to do it.
Just watch the first play in the next videoclip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQQd50OGYho&feature=related
Watch how Desean Jackson is allowed to get open without a defender closing on him.
The cornerback doesnt run with Desean Jackson, and the safety doesnt start to run towards him until he made the catch. This is how Convick gets most of his big plays upfield, when Desean Jackson is simply allowed to get open with defenders always making "mistakes" .
The oppossing brothas are helping him big time every single game. This is how he was made the No1 QB.
bigunreal said:Again, I provide these thoughts for intelligent consideration.

snow said:It happened against Kolb too, blown coverage quite a bit. You really think the defenders in the NFL are that good? come on man. Those are two different games, no way of knowing what the play call was, or what the defenders assignment was. These guys have mental lapses, all the time, its only noticed when someone like Sabby has one. White quarterbacks are benefiting from messed up assignments too, and doing a much better job at it then any of the black ones, they read the defenses much better, find the mismatches, and find the holes in the coverages. I didn't know Glover Quin was such a consistent player
Just because there is a blueprint doesn't mean every team can execute it. Or is every team in the NFL trying to protect Vick except the Bears, who aren't white friendly themselves...
what black quarterbacks in college? they have all been proven to be frauds, Jacory Harris, the guy from Texas A&M. Who do they have left? Terrelle Pryor? yeah really expecting him to light it up.....maybe at wide receiver. Cam Newton is running a system that is similar to what Tebow ran mixed in with concepts that Leach and June Jones ran, inflated stats, with nowhere near the passing ability of Tebow. BUST, unless he converts to another position.
