Vick went on Inside the NFL and said that his passing deficiencies are due to bad receivers, not any lack of skill on his part.

The Falcons' recievers are terrible though - they drop balls, run poor routes and deflect balls to create interceptions. I don't blame him for having zero faith in them besides Alge Crumpler.

This is a hard issue for those that don't follow the Falcons to grasp since the reflexive comment is just "Vick should be a WR".

The Falcons OL is terrible at pass blocking. They are decent at run blocking because of their chopblocking scheme. Most of the line are cast offs from from other teams. Vick's running also augments the running totals which makes the OL look much better than it is.

Greg Knapp, the offensive coordinator, needs to go. He hasn't worked out anywhere he's been.

Don't you mean zone blocking scheme? Because chop blocks are, you know, illegal.
