Vick Signing With Patriots Doesn't Make Sense - For Vick - Page 2 - New England Patriots Forums

Vick should play in the UFL. They end by Thanksgiving and he can prove he still has "it." By then the protestors will thin out a bit, some team like SF might decide their QBs are crap and decide to give him a shot.

And he got paid.

What about the Vick we don't know about? It wouldn't be much of a stretch to assume that he still owes money to the so-called dog mafia or owes favors to some powerful interstate crime ring. Certainly he possesses information that they would consider sensitive to their continued illegal activities. Talk about distractions.

I always look at BB as the "mad scientist" who likes to see what could be done with the anomolous talent in the league. Vick is the the epitome of that and I'm hard pressed to believe BB wouldn't be slightly curious as to how he could utilize a guy with Vick's talents.

I'm curious! I'd be pretty psyched if we gave him a looksee.

I go back forth between the thought you just mentioned and what Kraft said on the radio basically why take the ball out of Brady's hand.

I must say Bill brought these attentions ...don't understand why he played coy and vague on this in the first place... why not just say we don't need him... national media had a field day speculating pats' interest in Vick. To them it stands for the lack of scruple and lack of principle that Bill B would do anything to get an edge.

Sometimes Bill is trying to be TOO smart. He needs to understand Pats could use some good PR and image. Kraft being a shrewd business man undnerstands this. Bill is all about misinformation. Granted, he is a better coach than 90% of his peers. By stop this cleverness of being evasive. Really all his success can be traced to two men: Parcells and Brady. What has he done without these two? I would have a better time rooting for my pats if we did not have such a sully head coach.

WOW so what have Parcell's and Brady done without such a sully head coach (whatever that is...)...

What we have here lately is a plethora of sully headed posters, I fear. Should make for another pissa season on the message board regardless of where Vick signs and what this team accomplishes.

Trust me when I say this as it's coming from a lifelong Gator fan... not really.

If it wasn't for BB, we wouldn't have 3 Championships. I think last season proved that BB can do it without Brady if he had to. Cassell came on slower than we would have liked though. That, combined with some DB issues, cost us a shot last year. I think we had a shot last year if we had made the playoffs.

Just the same, Brady is deserving of the credit you give him. Parcells is not. While I give him credit (along with Mr. Kraft and Bledsoe) of being a key figure in turning our franchise fortunes around, he had his shot at a Championship and blew it. Not only did he blow it, but he pulled his best Bennedict Arnold impersonation while doing so.

Kraft and Belichick should be on your short list along with Brady as key figures making the Patriots what they are today.
