People say Vick wasn't accurate but you have to see the context there: he was streaky, and it was all around whether he'd been physically beaten up that day. We forget how small a guy he really was, so he could definitely be rattled by a defense. But if you let him get comfortable, his feet would calm down a little and he'd start hitting 7, 8 in a row -- I saw it over and over and over and over again.

So naturally when the Falcons' O-line was a revolving door, he really got his rear end kicked and never could get any momentum, scrambling for his life and not many guys are accurate on a full scramble anyway.

It's not an accident that Andy Reid's offense gave him a chance to work the ball without taking so much heat.

Goons are weird man. I used to play EVE and i probably had 10-12 avatar changes over the span of 2 months. None of which were funded by me.

An Andy Reid offense allowing a generational talent to do their thing well, you say?

That's probably true as there's basically no way to defend Vick optioning to Barkley or Miles Sanders. I could see receivers or the tight end being open all the time, but Vick was not particularly accurate, and I could see that costing a game. Bottom line, I don't know if the 2017 Penn State wins the national championship with Vick or not. McSorley threw 3500 and ran for 500 that year.

It's posts like these that keep my imagination running wild

much like Saquon & Vick would have

WHEN MICHAEL VICK PLAYS, I see streetball. I don't just mean that sort of football where you have to count to four-Mississippi before you can rush the quarterback, nearly everything breaks down and it's all great fun. I also mean street basketball. Vick's style reminds me of Allen Iverson

Man, if that's the result of getting extra practice what the gently caress does that program look like otherwise.

Most of the other terrible big 10 boards have latched on to some hilariously gossipy thread from months ago on Nebraska's boards about Frost's home life getting bad over the summer too. Personally, I'm not sure I believe the rumors that his wife took the kids and went back to Florida, but it might explain his sudden anger at people being able to transfer.

Frost being mad about transfers is so funny when he was one of the most high profile transfers ever as a player

Oh no doubt he’s vaccinated. I’m sure his wife is and his kids are in private school. I would just love for him to be the .001 percent who die with a breakthrough case. It would make me laugh.
