it just shows his head isnt in the game...and his focus is in the wrong place...golden gods dont lose focus

11/12/2006 5:22:55 PM

i think you're readin a bit too much into it. in my opinion, you're better served stickin with stats and results.

i think i remember aikman linin up under the wrong guy back in the day. course, he was probably suffering from a concusion at the time.

if we win 10 in the row tho, ill eat my hats

we'll probably be up like 28-0 and then win 28-27

^^^haha i thought that too...rally needs to get off vicks nuts

11/12/2006 10:21:18 PM

I've been reading this thread all the while and seen Manning brought up several times as the best qb. Just never stepped in to clear things up until today.

11/12/2006 10:32:07 PM

How bout those Jets

11/12/2006 10:33:26 PM

Personally I think Peyton is far and away the best QB in the league.

If I was going to pick one QB starting a team it would be Tom Brady though.

I'm pretty unbiased as a Jets fan... If I wanted a running QB I'd take Chad though

Quote :

"That's why it's best to hold off on any sweeping pronouncements regarding Michael Vick and his corner-turning as an NFL quarterback. After throwing for seven touchdown passes over a two-game span in Weeks 7-8, beating Pittsburgh and Cincinnati in the process, Vick has now regressed with back-to-back losses to Detroit and Cleveland, tossing two touchdowns and four interceptions in those games. And it was his key fourth-quarter fumble against the visiting Browns that doomed Atlanta on Sunday. Back to the drawing board, No. 7. "

11/13/2006 9:37:49 AM

stats for the Golden God's game against the Browns:

16-40 passing for 197 yds, 1 TD, 2 INT
7 rushes for 74 yds, 1 fumble lost

11/13/2006 12:50:37 PM

quote from ESPN "he really hasn't developed out of the 'he's got potential' range".... they are even talking about the possibility that the Falcons replace him with Schaub as starter.... HAHAHA some "Golden God"

11/13/2006 12:56:29 PM

there arent qb controversies with golden gods.

11/13/2006 1:04:29 PM

damn, i hate talking football with some people

in the course of lunch today here in Atlanta, I got multiple comments about how Vick would have had a great game if there weren't "at least a dozen dropped balls" and that "only one of his three turnovers was his fault." I'm sorry, but if you're ball gets tipped, it's your fault for not getting it over the line. And if the ball is in your hands, that's where you are supposed to keep it.

Then again, these are the same guys who told me that South Carolina almost beating Florida didn't show that UF was weak, because "SC could beat any team in the Big East" and that UGA won because the SEC is so deep (but expertly glossed over that loss at home to Vandy)

11/13/2006 1:52:22 PM

Drew Brees is a Black&Golden God

Quote :

"his receivers were abysmal (how many drops did they have today, wow). He was off target on several passes but his rushing yards were phenomenonal again."

Mr. Vick had the biggest drop of the game. Also, he's back to throwing like Billy Wagner. I saw more of this game than I wanted to, and the touch just wasn't there - guess what happened when it was? The guys caught the football.

I can't believe that nine games in now, you haven't noticed this. But Vick is supposed to throw the ball 900km/h, and the WRs are just supposed to hold on to it. That's preposterous.

11/14/2006 1:51:30 AM

I heard that he lined up behind a guard near the end of the game.

ahahahahahahahahahahahaha

11/14/2006 1:55:04 AM

Going into this last game the Vick had just 2 dropped passes more than the Rivers... so much for that arguement.

remember when everyone was bashing the Chargers for passing on vick and getting LT instead?

11/14/2006 8:49:34 AM

i agree with alot of shit rally says, but eventually you gotta quit making excuses and realize you just lost back to back games against shitty......shitty teams. you can use the injuries excuse, but anybody can tell you thats part of the game. you can use the dropped passes excuse, but thats part of the game as well. the qb is who you blame when the offense isnt producing, and hes who you give credit to when the offense is producing. you cant just pick and choose. put shaub in and i guarantee the falcons start winning. i hope they dont though, so the falcons keep losing to shitty teams and take themselves out of the race.

also....i could give a fuck less about how many "rush yards" he had. if he cant pass for shit than what good is he? you ever see a team in the super bowl that has 2 running backs and no qb?

You mean like what happened last year?

11/14/2006 10:26:36 AM

they had 2 running backs PLUS a qb. he may not have played exceptional in that particular game, but he played good enough to get them there and win.

[Edited on November 14, 2006 at 11:17 AM. Reason : .]

11/14/2006 11:17:04 AM

and vick is a lot of the reason why his receivers drop his balls...he doesnt have any touch whatsoever...all of his passes are missiles and a lot of them fade away...making it hard for his receivers to catch

11/14/2006 11:19:19 AM

Jim Rome ripped Vick on "Rome is Burning" today. For some reason Vick was trying to blame the loss on someone else. Rome said something along the lines of...."You go 16-40, 2 ints, and 1 key fumble when you're in scoring position and you're trying to put the blame on someone else?? Come on."

He went on to talk about his inconsistency and how incredible talent does not make a good QB (OH WOW...WHERE HAVE I HEARD THAT BEFORE). He also said something about how if Vick doesn't get it now...he probably never will.

Good thing rally isn't posting in this thread until Vick makes the Pro Bowl. (1) Because he really has no argument right now and (2) It means he'll probaly never post in this thread again.

11/14/2006 5:46:11 PM

I really think they would win alot more games with Schaub.

11/14/2006 5:52:33 PM

Was I the only one that heard the Falcons fans cheering pretty loud when Schaub came in the game???

11/14/2006 5:53:36 PM

With Brees, Bulger, McNabb, Eli Manning, and hell, I'll even toss Jon Kitna out there... all having better seasons than Vick... it would COMPLETELY blow to shit any credibility currently held by the Pro Bowl if Vick made it in after this season.

11/15/2006 8:47:41 PM

vick just isn't that good, he can run ok, and throw adequately but neither on a really high level....

^Hmmm...#12 QB in the league, according to Scouts.com. According to Rally, they are the end-all to be-all in football. Well, whaddya know? He's even 2 spots behind *gasp* Brett Favre. Don't even make me bring that thread back.

Why do people compare brett favre do vick? They are a completly different style of player. The only thing they have in common is poor decision making.

11/16/2006 10:26:14 AM

...what the fuck?

they both play quarterback. if you say you can only compare qb's of a similar style then what are we even talking about in this thread? if you can only compare simlar-styled quarterbacks then the only guys we can really compare to vick are kyle boller and aaron brooks. their common style is "shitty"

11/16/2006 12:37:47 PM

Ok , because grady jackson and julies peppers play football exactly the same way. Yeah they both have helmets and play defensive line

11/16/2006 4:09:16 PM

BTTT. Good game Vick, you completed over 50% passing with no turnovers....

11/19/2006 4:31:23 PM

Quote :

"Vick, who never has strung together four above-average passing games (posting QB ratings of 80 or more), remains one of the most electric athletes ever to grace a gridiron. He is smooth, fast and dangerous as a runner. He has a magnificent arm for throwing deep. But those qualities aren't enough to define real greatness. He continues to struggle with accuracy on short passes, and making wise decisions when a play breaks down still seems out of his grasp. Those two issues came home to roost Sunday. Vick may not have been to blame in this game the way he was in the two previous losses at Detroit and against Cleveland, when he combined for six turnovers. In this loss, Vick's lack of contribution was far more subtle. Whether significant or subtle, Vick's lack of consistency appears to be undermining the Falcons. That was evident during two critical moments of the game. "

Rally, when are you going to admit youve been pwned?

he won't post again with Vick playing so poorly... his next post will come immeadiately following Vick's next decent performance (if he has one), and at that time he will continue to blow Vick's pole and refuse to even respond to any of the comments made previously and ignore all statistics for any of Vick's poor games

11/20/2006 5:37:31 PM

Nice 51 yard run

followed by a sack, a throw-away, and a 1 yard underneath on 3rd and goal from the 6...nice

golden god indeed

11/26/2006 1:43:38 PM

brees has thrown the ball 3 times and has a TD, 88 yards

vick has thrown it 7 times and has 19 yards.

11/26/2006 1:45:33 PM

Um, Vick has 101 yards rushing 16 minutes into the game also. I'm not his biggest fan but that is 119>88.

11/26/2006 1:53:07 PM

ten pass attempts for 19 yards.

4-10

that's 1.9 yards per attempt

rushing yards or not, that sucks ass.

Ladanian Tomlinson could be put in at QB and probably have equal or better numbers than vick's passing numbers. and have good rushing numbers too obviously
