Gotcha. Sorry about the confusion. Still pretty early, even though I woke up at 2AM.

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. This guy would fit right in with the Raiders.

Well at least he sticks up for his teammates. /s

The Falcons will never get rid of him because he's their biggest draw. I don't know about you but I just want to see my team win. If someone makes a spectacular play in the process that's great but I don't have to see that in order to be entertained. That's what separates the football fan from the casual fan.

I actually do think receivers these days aren't as good at catching, maybe they don't work hard enough at it, but a lot of them have trouble catching passes thrown by left-handed quarterbacks because the spin is wrong and the ball moves the "wrong" direction so if they take their eye off it it ends up a couple inches different from where they are used to.

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.
