Not to single anyone out just wanted to know if anyone would admit to being wrong about vick at this point. Alot of you said he was nothing but a running qb or wasnt one at all. i'm all for luck or whoever is under center for the panthers next season but, maybe some of "us" were wrong??????????

Those comments were made when he was with the Falcons. Even he admits that he didn't do anything to develop as a passer and relied only on his athletic ability then.

I was for the idea of brining in Vick, but even I didn't have any idea how well he would do this season... so I'm not going to rub anybody else's nose in it.

He would have helped, but he wouldn't be as good as he has been in the Eagles system and the Panthers NEVER would have brought him here so it isn't really worth discussing.

We might have 4-5 wins with Vick.

Fwiw, Hindsight is 20/20, but there was nothing in Vick's history to suggest that he would become as effective a passer as he has this year. He has always had a strong arm, but consistent accuracy has been a problem. If memory serves, In his years with the Falcons, his interception to completed pass ratio was about the same as Jake's.

He has looked better this year than he ever has. That might have something to do with the coach he is working for now. And if thats the case, then there is no reason to think that he would have looked as good playing for us.

Still not sure I would want us to have a convicted felon as Quarterback anyway.

Character has to be a key issue with the Panthers QB. Kerry Collins is probably the best QB we ever had, just was not the best HERE because he was a racist drunk whose heart was not in it. We all know that Vick has talent, we just did not want the baggage. As far as QB, he is still a running QB and he has taken a beating. At 30, it will start to age him quickly (remember, he had 2 years or so to heal). He is on a roll. He always was streaky, so this is nothing new. The next offseason or two will measure Vick. As far as I am concerned, he is still the dog killing Ron Mexico and the people of Philly should feel like bigger scumbags than they already are for cheering for this dick. His true colors will come out soon enough. Wait until contract negotiations. He wll want top QB money, especially if they win a game or two in the playoffs.

Time to start counting again:

1) Not ONE PERSON could have predicted Vick would play this well. Why? look at his numbers prior to this year. Go ahead and lie and say you knew, and after that, use your crystal balls and give the next winning lotto numbers.

2) We don't have Andy Reid, DesSean Jackson, LeSean McCoy, Jeremy Maclin, and Brent Celek on the same team. he's NEVER had this many weapons on offensive at the same time.

3) He's playing in a WEST COAST OFFENSE. see #2, Andy Reid, hes done very well with Vick. Vick has never thrown the ball with this type of efficiency. Some of it is Vick, the rest is the system and the coach.

4) /f**king thread

      Draft expectations vs reality

      Your thoughts? I don't think the trade up or even down value system stays exactly in place this year. Look at all the bad trades that hurt teams that give away too much (49ers for Lance, even us w/the Bears set us back). What trade up except Mahomes/KC was it really a great trade for the team giving up a lot? Same with trading down. Teams will know you don't want to pick and they won't be giving the store to move up because there is not a generational talent to do that for. Now, I believe these possibilities.  The Giants probably won't take QB-Sanders at 3, it's too much pressure if it doesn't work. They don't really need another edge rusher with Carter. I can see them possibly saving face, trade down to even the Panthers at 8 but not asking for a kings ransom. A 1st round swap, a 3rd and 4th and maybe next years 2nd and 4th could be enough without giving up too much. The Giants save in pay and in public opinion and then they can take Sanders or even another QB. For the Panthers to drop down, it has to mean their top 3 picks are not there. Do they take TE-Warren if he drops in their lap at 8 (I do like that)? I believe they would love to drop back but again I don't think teams will pay a lot to move up unless they want a QB before the Saints (our only hope for a good value).  I'm not picking a player, just thinking of the draft in general and value. Reaching doesn't work and more and more teams are realizing that.

      With the new DL, we should be better at edge by simple addition.   What player would have the biggest impact on the Panthers?  I still see the plan to trade back and take Emmanwori if we can find a trade partner.  Why, you ask?  S is a huge need and they have really only looked at 1 visits/meetings.  We will try to trade up for Princely in the second.  A WR in the third  (Bech or Noel).
