New poll identifies Mike Vick as most disliked NFL player

A poll of players has revealed that Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is the dirtiest player in the NFL. A poll of fans has bestowed a slightly less desirable honor on Eagles quarterback Mike Vick.

Per Tom Van Riper of Forbes.com, a new poll from Nielsen and E-Poll Market Research has found that Vick is the most disliked NFL player. Specifically, 60 percent of the respondents identified Vick as a player they “dislike,” “dislike somewhat,” or “dislike a lot.”

Jets receiver Plaxico Burress finished second, with 56 percent. Third on the list was Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, at 49 percent. In fourth place, former Pats defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, with 46 percent.

All four players have had trouble with the law, which surely has done nothing to enhance their standing.

Bears quarterback Jay Cutler (38 percent), Patriots receiver Chad Ochocinco (35 percent), Eagles quarterback Vince Young (32 percent), Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer (31 percent), Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo (29 percent), and Panthers tight end Jeremy Shockey (29 percent) also made the list.

From a distance he really does look like a changed man, and I can respect that.

But I wouldn't want him as my QB, if I had a choice of any QB, because he still hasn't fully grasped the QB position.

Guess Vick has you fooled to.He has not changed one bit,never will.Its all an act.

I don't hate Vick primarily for the dog killing. I hate him primarily because the media relentlessly pimps him and he is really not very good.

What's weird is that when he got out of prison, he seemed like such a better QB than before. Odd.

He may well have me fooled, but I trust my judgement far more than yours, because you are clearly a useless ****ing idiot.

Matt Cassel is better than Jay Cutler?

Holy shit.

How ****ing moronic does one have to be to even entertain that thought?

He is a better QB.

He figured out that he has to learn the mechanics of the position, and to learn to read defenses.

But he is still a work in progress.

He's 30 years old.

History tells us that only about 5 SBs have been won by QBs over the age of 33.

By the time Vick gets it fully, not only will he be close to reaching that age when his athleticism begins to fade, but his window will be damn near to closing.

I think Vick's window is smaller than some QBs' because of the pounding he takes. I don't think he will physically hold up.
