Once the "Joey" chants start Vick is gonna lose his confidence like Brooks did.

I wonder if Jake will hear the "DAVID" chants?

I like Jake but not the panthers, therefore I don't like it when Jake plays well.

The Falcons picked up Harrington just so Loose Cannon couldn't get his wish of Joey backing up Brees. Take that LC.

You must have been behind that move, being the Falcon's GM and all. Why have you betrayed us?

So, in the meantime, another quality backup for Brees is signed by another division opponent. Getting a little worried here.

I'm sure Joey knows he has a better chance to take the reigns in 2 years in Atlanta...

David Carr and Joey Harrington shouldn't really worry anyone.

We already have a quality back-up... Jaime Martin. The only thing wrong with him is he's old, but the guy is a solid, solid back-up QB.

We need a CB, WR, and DT a whole heck of alot more than a new back-up QB.

I will never understand why some people on this forum are scared of 2 recent draft busts. Harrington is WORSE than Carr ... He had a pretty potent offense in Detroit (Jon Kitna sure as hell used it), and did crap.

They both suck, so why is everyone worried?

Great... another bum backup QB in the division to back up a bum starting QB... I love it... all we need now is for Chris Simms or Jake "Liquid" Plummer to come in and back up Garcia... oh wait...

I don't agree completely. Our offense if based on quick reads and releases and Martin showed when he played that he is very slow reading and reacting. He looked terrible and I would not feel comfortable with him as the QB for any length of time. I certainly agree we need a CB, WR and DT, but why would that preclude us from signing depth?

Are you talking about the Panthers game, in which Martin looked terrible, or some preseason game? I'll have to watch that Panthers game again because I thought, as a whole, the team competed pretty well without several key players.

I agree with you completely. I am happy with what Martin did considering he had pretty much no offensive starters helping him out. I will never fault him, and I will always give him the utmost respect for getting his old butt up after every sack / hit.

I think Payton has Fife in the wings to win the #2 this year.
