Are we talking Joan Jett? Carole King? Donna Summer?

what have I been telling y'all ALL season long? That Vick has actually thrown pretty well this year. I never said he was a great passer, but he's been as good as he's needed to be MOST of the time. He doesn't have to be a GREAT passer given the threat of his legs (he will run for 1000 this year, already at 870).

I've told y'all time and time again how bad our WR play has been, including Crump in a few games. These WIDE open catches that are dropped just KILL drives and are inexcusable, there is NO excuse for this whatsoever.

The people saying they don't have confidence b/c they don't know if he's gonna run are just Vick bashers, these WR's are PROFESSIONALS. They are PAID to catch the football, I don't care where it's coming from, if the ball hits you in the chest or right on the hands AND you are wide open, you HAVE to make the catch. I understand drops will happen sometimes but this has been happening time and time again ALL year long. I am actually kind of glad (not that we lost the game) that y'all could see first hand what I've been saying.

When you are punting the ball because of a drop when it should be 1st and 10, that's pretty much a turnover.. No telling what would have happened on those drives.

"pre-madonna." hahahaha....

This is a first. I've never heard Vick referred to as a "golden boy." "Golden Boy" is usually reserved for Peyton and Favre. Stop the hate.

To compare Brooks and Vick in terms of heart and leadership, well that's pretty ludicrous, Brooks doesn't have an ounce the heart of Vick...Don't be so blind, I can't stand playing Vick twice a year and I'm loving seeing the Falcons demise but the man is one of the most competitive, warriors in the game today. He was the ONLY reason they were in the game today...

As for the recievers dropping passes because they never had leadership...:_rofl: how about NO, they're dropping passes because they SUCK......Crumpler didn't seem to have any problems catching balls against us and the rest of the league the last couple years, maybe Lelie and White or whatever his name is just sucks........

sorry i wasnt clear enough. i meant that the receivers' hearts werent in it because they have no faith in their QB. yes, Vick is a warrior and usually is the only reason their team has a chance, but hes playing the wrong position. if the WR runs his route thinking "i dunno why im even doing this route, hes gonna run or throw it to crumpler" then the WR gets into the mindset that hes only going through the motions to be a downfield blocker or decoy. but other teams know vick seldom throws to WRs, so its not a good decoy.

remember that WR is the position that people like "meshawn" johnson and TO play, a lot of them crave attention, and their job hinges heavily on another players position. if its not a passing play, there effectiveness on the field is greatly diminished. yes they can block downfield on a running play, or draw defenders away from the run, but who wants to do that all game? they want to catch the ball, and it seems to me like they just arent in that mindset when the ball finally comes their way.

maybe they should draft a buncha tight ends and put them wideout, like we did with colston. that way they get good downfield blockers, AND vick can satisfy his urge to throw exclusively to the TE.

I'm sure it's just a way of him telling the fans "you are #1". He was just giving them the dirty bird....no biggie

LMAO!!!!! That's just plain funny.
