Mike Vick Being Discussed Internally

The Packers have more than a passing interest in signing Mike Vick. We talked with our Packers sources this evening and learned that coaches were approached and asked for their opinion about Vick. It's no secret that they have no confidence in their backups. According to what we were told, they are serious about Vick. We'll see.

Would it be possible NOT to watch the Packers for at least a season if this were to happen? Stay tuned....

Awesome, go from Favre possibly playing for the team i dislike most in all of football (patriots close second) to that douche bag being discussed for employement.

You want to finish your career here?
Favre: "Definitely. If in two years, say, they want to trade me, I'd probably walk away. Retire."

Michael Vick doesn't fit here. He should go to a wildcat team.

This is a placeholder

I for sure wouldn't mind it. I don't like either of our backups.

Big steaming pile of BS.

Remember, this site was the first one saying we were interested in signing Kevin Greene to be our OLB coach. They stated it way, way before anything was said anywhere else.

They also stated before anyone that they'd hire Darren Perry as the d-back coach.

I don't think it would hurt us at all. If anything, it would help. He would bring a whole other type of dimension to this offense.

I don't think he would be a problem in the locker room, as he wasn't when he played in Atlanta. I think he has served his time, and that is enough punishment. 2 years in prison has hopefully smacked some sense into him.

I'm not saying that I necessarily WANT Ted Thompson to bring him here, I'm just saying that it wouldn't be a BAD idea.

I don't doubt for a second that the Packers were asked their opinions of Vick internally. I wouldn't be surprised if Plaxico is to serve no jail time that the Packers would emulate the same discussions about Plaxico.

The word 'serious' I have to put into question. We run a west coast flavor offense, that's exactly the worst offense for Vick, so I've been hearing anyhow. Steve Young was mobile and made it work.

So now that the Packers are openly relieved to have the whole Favre distraction behind them, they're seriously considering signing Michael Vick? I don't believe it.

I'm not really a Vick fan but I wouldn't have a problem with him being on the team.

beast (2h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (2h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (2h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (3h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (3h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (4h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (4h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (4h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (4h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (4h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (4h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (4h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (4h) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (4h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (4h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (4h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (4h) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (4h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (4h) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (4h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (4h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (5h) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (5h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (5h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (5h) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (5h) : This might be the kill shot here

Mucky Tundra (5h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Philly DL has come to play

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night

Mucky Tundra (5h) : ok scratch that

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Game feels like last years Super Bowl: 49ers started off in control, moved the ball well but didn't have much of a lead to show for it

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : KC jumped and they call it on Eagles. WTF refs

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : If he was offside why did you let him pop the QB?

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : I like that Eagles are controlling time of possession so far.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : If the Eagles are going to win, this is how they do it: jump all over the Chiefs and don't let it turn into a close one

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : Bad throw created that penalty.

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : Amazed Philly got that hit to the helmet call.
