Everyone is acting like Vick played in some long forgotten era. 2001-2015. He came into the league with Tom Brady and drew brees. Y’all are basically arguing Andruw Jones vs trout and saying that Andruw is better, if he played with juiced balls, and worked on his strike zone, and hustled after his big contract. That may be true, but that’s simply not a guy who ever existed

Jim Mora tried to make Michael Vick into Joe Montana in Atlanta. I remember him making a huge deal out of how they were going to run the West Coast Offense with him in it.

When in fact, he should have been running the West Virginia-Pat white read option the whole time.

Vick in today's college-styled NFL offenses like what Arizona or Baltimore run would be almost unstoppable. He had a much more natural and cleaner throwing motion than Jackson and had a cannon.

exactly. everyone picking vick is making up a completely different player than what actually existed.

lamar won the MVP ffs. he already has 2 years rushing better than vick's best. basically all of his years have a better QBR than vick's best. it's just silly.

Thank you. It’s Lamar but it’s also fair to say that Vick paved the way for guys like Lamar to exist.

I mean I know stats can be skewed but go look at the comparison and it’s Lamar by 3 miles
