Yup. In a way Atlanta is a perfect for him. It's a good size market without a demanding football fan base. If Vick were in New York he'd be as "happy" as A-Rod is right now.

Hey, with that contract, I'd be plenty happy being A-Rod.

I still say Vick would work as a Raider.

Atlanta is also a very fickle town when it comes to their teams, with many fans showing up just to see and be seen. Unless they're winning, people stay home.

Vick just pulled a perfect TO, undermining his coaches, his teammates and blamed everybody else for the fact that he's just an average QB. It didn't take long for opposing teams to stack the box and dare him to throw. If I were the owner and GM, I'd be thinking real hard about trading him after the season, and Alice Davis is just dumb enough to trade the house for him.
