It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I personally do not want him anywhere near our team-first attitude, nor do I want to endure any more media BS. On top of that I don't even think he is all that talented of a football player, besides maybe being quick.
He was quoted yesterday as wanting to put football 'on the back burner' for now anyway, so the whole thought could be mute.
Is that because all the media BS in 2007 had us go 18-1?I personally do not want him anywhere near our team-first attitude, nor do I want to endure any more media BS.
I'm still wondering why anyone thinks the Patriots are going to play a wildcat offense? Where is the value in taking the ball out of Tommy's hands? The current Patriots offense gives teams enough variety to defend, they don't need gimmicks other than an occasional Brady to Moss to Brady to TD play to mess with someone's head.
On the back burner for what???
Anyway, I would never want that dog killin punk on the team personally.
With that I am out of here...
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the Wildcat offense only made any sort of impact in ONE game last year....the first time it was used against the Pats. I don't remember seeing it work very well in any other game...and not just for Miami, but all of the teams in the NFL that tried it. I don't see the point in the Patriots trying to use it either. They have Tom Brady. Taking the ball out of his hands is dumb.
I don't want Michael Vick anywhere near the Patriots. If he does come here, I hate to say it, but I wouldn't root for them any longer.
Imagine Vick throwing the ball...oops, how much better is Roddy White with a real QB? NE doesn't need anyone but Tommy throwing the ball, Vick or another running QB doesn't add enough to the offense to make it worthwhile, let Dallas or someone who likes clowns have him.I agree in a way, and I don't really care to see either Vick or P. Burress joining the team, because they both just seem like the type of people that stay stupid for life and I don't think this team really needs to worry about that sort of risk/reward ratio. However, Vick (assuming he still has his skills) could be extremely useful on the field if used as a "Slash" type of player. Imagine having both Brady and Vick in the backfield, in the shotgun, and a team having to figure out what the Patriots were going to do with the ball. Brady could pass. Vick could scramble. Vick could pass. Vick could go out in a pattern.
Now, imagine the defense dealing with that while defending against Moss, Galloway, Welker and Faulk/Watson/Maroney. Defensive Coordinators would be losing all sorts of sleep.
P.S. I think the "Wildcat" comments are really just becoming code for 'running QB'.

If they ever ran a play like that I would hope that TFB curls up in the fetal position. I don't want him standing around or trying to block and getting killed by a Ray Lewis.I agree in a way, and I don't really care to see either Vick or P.
