Then this offseason, Atlanta went out and got some bona fide weapons like Michael Jenkins and Roddy White to stretch the field for their rookie QB, and their passing offense predictably took off. Lesson learned: QBs are only as good as the deep threats they're given.

You be being sarcastic or are Roddy White and Michael Jenkins the same guys as Vick had. Vick wasn't that successful for the same reasons Vince Young isn't successful both are more athlete than quarterback and neither is accurate.
