  • Good for him. I'm glad someone had the guts to hire him. Guy is exciting to watch. I am sure he will be the WildDawg option and backup for mcnabb..

  • It's a good scenario for all involved. Vick will be able to get back in football shape without having to worry about being the man on the team--and as has been stated, a WildDawg backfield with Vick is a scary thought--and he'll get a chance to show whether or not he has been rehabilitated and can be a good citizen again.

    Why do I get the feeling that Tony Dungy will resurface as a head coach about the same time Vick's contract runs out in Philly?

  • It's a win-win. McNabb goes down by week 8 & Vick is ready to jump in. McNabb comes back for the playoffs.

    CHANGE IS GOOD

  • haha ya

  • I think its actually going to be a very good thing for the eagles, lets face it mcnabb is getting into the back 9 of his career so why not begin training his replacement. Mike Vick is a more then capable replacement.

    What we're seeing here in 2010 is precisely what happened in NE a decade ago. It worked for them then, and it wiill work for us now. Why? Because it's the only way it's ever worked in pro football. Just ask Paul Brown. Or Vince Lombardi. Or Tom Landry. .02, Clemdawg

    Philadelphia you say? Now there's an UNDERSTANDING fanbase. This is gonna be like an extended Saturday Night Live show. You just know some squid in charge of the stadium music is gonna amp up that tune "Who Let the Dawgs Out" as Michael Vick takes the field.

    If they booed McNabb on draft day - what do you suppose was the most popular word in Philly today?

    LOL....more than capable replacement? What the hell has Vick ever accomplished as a QB? He was never a real QB and his legs aren't going to serve him as well as he gets older and has to deal with the Philly weather late in the season.

    Well the way I see it he never really had anyone teach him the right way, and with his skill set there is no one better then Andy Reid.

  • Vick will most likely be used as a slash-type at this point if I were to guess.

    Only this slash likes killing dogs instead of kissing men....

    Andy Reid is a "good teacher?" Ask any Eagle fan how they feel about him. He's like a white Romeo Crennel.

    Doesnt mean he cant change, I mean mcnabb was a bit of a runner himself.

    Yeah and these are the same fans that booed mcnabb. Hes a good coach thats why hes lasted more then 4 years at philly.

    Badly played, mz the pussy, given the fact that the Eagles have been a playoff team for several years--even though that is probably as much a tribute to Childress and Jim Johnson as it is to Reid.

    A far better snarky comment would have been to point out that if anyone has shown the ability to keep young men out of trouble, it's Andy Reid.

  • You are correct, Dennis. I should have played the kids-on-herion card, but I've seen a lot of Reid (the wife is an Eagles fan) and had to go right for his coaching. I'm guessing his Crennelian clock management has cost the Eagles at least one Super Bowl.

  • I wonder how long before Vick is trying to drown the mascot on the sideline....

    3 seasons until our new head coach, let's hope they get it right this time.

    Philly fans are the f'cking worst fans of any town hands down, yes worse then Pittsburgh. They will embrace him if it means a win.

  • The dog killer is going to the Eagles, which is a heck of a lot better than him coming to the Steelers. There was just no way that was going to happen. The Rooneys aren't into convicted felons. Their team doesn't need the sort of distraction that Vick would cause.

    Philadelphia can have Vick. It deserves him.

    The only regret? Vick didn't sign with Cleveland.
