The best way to give the Falcons the finger: Vick!


top dawg

Recommended Posts

Wouldn't it be ironic if J-Rich shocked the NFL world, including Panthers fans, and decided that every man desires a second chance, and that even an ex dog killer is not above the opportunity for redemption? If God can forgive, then so can the Big Cat, and so can everyone. Wouldn't that just get underneath the skins of the Falcon faithful? Wouldn't it be poetic justice for all the neo-conservative hypocrites and the bleeding heart liberals from Charlotte to Atlanta to the Okefenokee watch Vick bring the Panthers to glory?

Let's be honest, folks. Brutally honest! Vick was a thorn in the Panthers paw for many a game down in the ATL and in BOA. Wouldn't it be nice if we could shove Vick (Deangelo and Stewart through the beaks and down the throats of every Atlanta Falcon fan for the next few years? A three-headed monster in the backfield with tentacles much like a giant octopus that deals mortal blows in the form of Steve Smith, our three TEs, and another receiving threat (as yet to be determined) would be formidable if you really, truly think about it.

The story of how a reformed Vick helped crush the Falcons in Atlanta, while on the way to the Super Bowl would make Brett Favre's return to Green Bay pale in comparison.

And, before all you sanctimonious hypocrites saddle up your high horse, let me say that this is only a hypothetical brought on by the boredom from the offensive failure that have besieged the Panthers (for whatever the reasons) so far this season. If it were ever to become true, I am sure that all of your disdain for Vick would soon fade away as as a result of his success in a Panthers uniform.

That pic was a nice touch...very compelling, but business is business.

I could make political statements with strategically placed pix all day long about different issues, but sometimes pragmatism and objectivity must prevail.

fuger shouldn't even be in the NFL. The day Vick is a Panther, I look for a new team.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
