I’m sure Vick will have plenty of “bonding time” with the owner when they are both in the same rehab classes.

Another team that will fail with Vick. Am glad my Bills get to play them twice.

the jets are willing to play an ex-con but not a man of faith?

and the NFL is ok with this? aren’t they afraid it’ll be too controversial?

Well, I’m sure that’ll go just dandy.

At least my Pack has a great QB, Aaron Rodgers.

The Jets released Marc Sanchez, terrible move.

As bad as Sanchez was, at least he wasn’t Vick.

Rodgers is great. I love watching him play, as well as the rest of the team.

I think Sanchez was done. I think he had physical skills, but...he was mentally weak, in my opinion. I thought that was why they did that whole Kabuki dance about “He’s still our number one quarterback” when they had that whole thing going on with Geno Smith. It was clear that once they said that, Sanchez was going to be broken.

I will be surprised if he ever does any better than a veteran backup somewhere. But you never know. Sometimes a change of scenery can do wonders with a guy like that.

He never seemed like a bad guy from what I could tell, but I doubt New York was the right place for him.

Your guys got a good linebacker in Spikes...he just wasn’t fitting in here at New England. I was sorry to see him go, but kind of expected it.

He’s a short, brittle turnover machine. Having said that, if he really is a backup, he’s still capable of having good games and winning a game or three.
