vickcitement Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 after dec 10th things will become very clear for our franchise and if ykw gets less than one year than drafting a qb in the draft would be insane when we could already have our franchise qb back for 2008.it's not about "image". it's about winning football games. that's what matters. we could be relevant again instead of putrid.

dyoshot Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 you're right. we are the only team that wants to be associated with harrington.and who's fault is that harrington is playing? because last i checked we didn't sign harrington to be the starter, he was brought here to be a backup. had ykw been focused on football instead of other things, harrington would be sitting on the bench. can't blame the organization for that.

marvinthemartian Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 those people who are so quick to forgive vick might not be feeling the same way if he had screwed them over like he did mr blank. its easier to forgive when it isnt your millions that you got screwed away.

dyoshot Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 everyone knows he was stupid for doing what he did. that's not debatable. what is debatable is what we should do as a team if he's available in 2008. this season has been so miserable that i literally could almost care less if we win or lose next week because we suck so bad. it's disheartening.if he's available we should bring him back at a highly reduced salary.i don't agree with the thought of a falcon filter. i think it's stupid. i think it shouldn't matter if you can play on sunday. if this was to or randy moss, you know whatever investment you make in those guys, it is worth it. these are guys that can definitely lead your team to the playoffs, and can help you win a championship. michael vick isn't that guy. he will have dazzling runs, has a strong arm, but can't lead your team to the promised land. he had been in the league for seven years, you pretty much know what you're getting from him.so me saying that i hope we don't bring him back has nothing to do with the moral implications, it's because i don't think he puts us over the hump. does he make us better? sure, wouldn't be hard to do that. but definitely not playoff bound. better to pick up the pieces and move on.
