Has any NFL player who's signed a long term, big money deal like this EVER completed the contract?

I honestly don't know, so I'm not trying to make a point. Or maybe I am.

except that he never really has been a beast. He appeared to take a significant step forward last year into being an actual QB instead of just an athlete. The problem is that he reverted back to his old form in the late part of the season.

Unbelievable.

I just wrote "Completely agreed with a Knowmo post on this date" on my calendar. I figured I should record this day in history. That doesn't happen very often.

I had to immediately take a shower after admitting to myself that I actually agreed with Knowmo.

Eagles did not need to greatly reduce Vick's cap number. It will now go from $16.2 million to $14.4 million in 2011.

Future followup: Vick dead due to overdose of hookers and blow.

Good lord.

Good for Ron Mexico...Hopefully this time he will learn from his mistakes and retire wealthy and not piss it all away.

Don't worry, he won't have time to quit on plays before he gets knocked out for the season. He's already almost gotten himself killed and it's only preseason.

Michael Vick (QB) - Philadelphia Eagles (Mon, Aug 29 - 7:49pm ET)

Eagles agreed to terms with QB Michael Vick on a six-year, $100 million contract with $40 million guaranteed.

We'd have to see annual particulars to comment with 100-percent accuracy, but it's an eye-popping commitment to a 31-year-old quarterback who relies so much on his athleticism. Vick was previously scheduled to play this season on a $16.2 million franchise tag. It will be interesting to see how Vick develops when his speed starts to diminish. While he made strides as a passer last season, Vick's attribute that scares opponents most is still his run threat.
