The biggest part of being a success as a starting NFL quarterback is dealing with pressure situations and rising above them. If Geno doesn't take opportunities like this to improve his game and cement himself as the teams starter, a great deal of us were very wrong about his "upside"...myself included.
I wanted us to draft the kid because I though the combination of him and Alex Smith would create a perfect competition that would push each other and eventually provide us with that franchise quarterback we have always wanted.
If Geno is bothered by Vick to the point he regresses, he would have NEVER won the job from Alex Smith.
