Atlanta Falcons - John Clayton

Can new coach Bobby Petrino take Michael Vick's game to the next level?
The Falcons cleared the books on challenges to Vick. They traded backup Matt Schaub to Houston, eliminating any worry Vick has to look over his shoulder. He probably didn't anyway. The guy is making $13 million a year, and he's the most physically gifted quarterback in football. But it's time for Vick to improve his accuracy. He completed only 52.6 percent of his passes last season, and he's connected on a subpar 53.8 percent in his career. Maybe he didn't fit into the West Coast offense, but it's Petrino's job to find the right one for Vick. Petrino brings in a quarterback-friendly offense from Louisville. It's a simple scheme, but Vick has to make it work.

Re: Atlanta Falcons - John Clayton

would Petrino be happier with a more conventional QB ...... is that possible ?

Vick is the perfect fit for the "Me Offense"

I'm sick of hearing about the recievers dropping balls - they caught them in college - could it be the QB's fault. I think he is slow to read the defense and then tries to gun the ball (to show off his arm). Vick is a dolt - a fast one - but still a dolt.

I'll follow the Falcons again - when Vick is gone
