Chiefs Would you be OK with Mike Vick in KC?

JohnnyV13 · 10-22-2010, 10:16 AM

I don't think the Chiefs will pick up Cassel's bonus in the offseason. If Cassel doesn't show he's playoff winning material by the end of this season, would you be OK with the Chiefs getting Vick? (Who is a FA at the end of this year).

Even if the Eagles go back to Vick as the starter for the rest of the year, Kolb's play and age means Vick is likely on the FA market. Vick also "dreamed of being KC's qb" when he was locked up in Leavenworth.

I think Vick is likely a changed guy, in that he's suddenly become coachable. He's out to prove people wrong, and I think he's been humbled. I don't think he's a choir boy, but he probably very much appreciates his NFL lifestyle these days. Having gone bankrupt, he's likely to have also lost his entourage.

Imagine how hard the Chiefs would be to stop on 3rd downs with Vick at QB. With our running game, Vick would mostly be confronted with 3rd and shorts. That's tailor made for his skill set. With playmakers like Charles and McCluster to use on misdirections, Vick would be absolutely scary.

And, with Vick's huge arm, we could drive people crazy with play action if we could get him a marginally competent deep threat.

I wouldn't mind.

I watched his series on BET, I don't have anything against him as Michael Vick of NOW.

I am all in, as long as we still draft a qb in the next 1-2 drafts.

No I hate that piece of shit. I know the NFL isn't fille with choirboys but I can't root for someone who took such great pleasure in torturing dogs. Google and read Vicks confession to see the extent to what a piece of shit he was. He may have served his time but I never want him on the Chiefs ever.

Yet people will line up to buy Ray Lewis jerseys, or give Leonard Little a pass....

Or vote for Ted Kennedy.

I wouldn't be happy to get either of those guys either. And this arguement does nothing to refute the fact that Vick is clearly a sociopath. I'm not saying I hate the guy; I'm a pretty forgiving sort. It's only that I wouldn't enjoy watching him play for my favorite team.

Piss on Vick.

People are brought up differently; from what I understand, although many of us consider pets family members, he considered them property, and being originally from a farming community, he's not unique in that mindset.

I'm not excusing what he did, but I don't think it's something he should have to pay for forever...after all, he lost millions of dollars and his freedom for a while. Unless he's involved in something like this again, I'd say "good luck".

Hell, child molestors get less flack than he did.

Sorry; off topic, I know.

I guess I didn't see the fact that he was a convicted fellon anywhere. I now if I were one I couldn't work in my profession. I wonder why the NFL turns a blind eye towards that?

I agree, had he not been caught, him and his gutter assed posse would still be doing those acts. And Atlanta said **** you Vick. Straight from Buckhead. Mother****er. ****. YOU.

FYP

If you bring Vick in, he's a quick fix. So you'd better have another long term option lined up fast because Vick will probably get hurt with this style.
