Cold blooded response....

As to Vick being the goat if he played today in the NFL...

 

.... does it come with him studying the playbook?

[Killing Floor]

I’d love to have a guy like Vick right now but I’ve got no dog in the fight. 

[Tribal Chief]

Doubt it

BRO.....  @DonDaLuvMaker .....  WHY you bring THAT up !??!? 😭That still hits a nerve with me.  So disappointing to hear him admit that to Jim Mora Jr on national TV that he was not studying the tapes.  Breaks my heart....😭

I saw this article on Facebook.  I ignored it.  Pure speculation.  Don't even know how anyone came to that conclusion.  Vick couldn't pass the ball well enough back in his day.  True, his running ability was second to none, but his passing wasn't good enough.

....... Because it still bothers me a bit as well lol.

 

Vick could've been truely revolutionary if he had the mental aspect. He could've been closer to Mahomes(but with world class speed) if he had the study habits and killer instinct instead of just getting by on his speed and athleticism.

Too many variables to consider...

 

[xianshino]

GOATs are GOATs for a reason and would be relevant in any decade. Elway, Montana, Marino would be unstoppable in today's borderline flag football. Same goes for Vick. If he wasn't in the GOAT convo then, he wouldn't be now.

My older son believe Vick has revolutionized the QB position and deserve HoF consideration for that.  I love Vick, but I can not agree with my son on that one.

First thing required would be for him to give a ****, which he already admitted that he didn't

Yeah, I know plenty of people who believe that as well.

 

I'd say Vick was extremely exciting to watch and a great athlete, but he was never a great QB.

Vick as we saw him did not have the accuracy nor mechanics to be as good as the top QB's now. 

If the argument is if he was born in 1999 and played in 2010's youth football and then went to Oklahoma and played for Lincoln Riley and was thus a totally different finished product than we ever saw, maybe.

The Goat is 16 years later and they STILL talking about you...

He’d be what he was.. a more exciting Lamar Jackson 

[FalconAge]

Vic also wouldnt have been quite as magical because defenses are so much smaller and faster now.

It looked like he was running from guys running in mud back in the day.

I’d bet my retirement no one regrets that more than Vick.  I think he was a bit immature, didn’t have the right guidance when he needed it.  He would have been a 10X All Pro with a couple of SB rings if he had committed 60% of the effort Brady did and he knows it.  Hard lesson learned.

Funny how overrated vick has gotten over the years.

[TheTrue7]

“Goat” is about as legit a term in sports as “legendary” nowadays, huh?

And to any Falcons fans that believe that, Vick says: 

 

😂 

[Wjcorner]

I mean, if he took the craft serious 20 years ago he'd be in the GOAT conversation. Just a disgusting overall package, and has that Mahomes unorthodox 'feel' with his legs.
