The more I think about it from a football standpoint, the more I think it wouldn't be a terrible idea.

Imagine 3rd and 3 and you have Vick in the game as an option to throw or run. It certainly provides an added dimension to the offense and gives the Packers probably a higher percentage chance of converting those 3rd and shorts. Let's face it, 3rd and short was a tough down on the Packers a year ago.

I've been reading around and I can't believe the lack of knowledge there is from some Packer fans and other football fans. Some actually believe Vick's signing would be an indication of how the Packers feel of Rodgers and others acts as if Vick is going to sign for big money in terms of pro football standards. It's mind-blowing.

The biggest issue in the football part that I see with Vick is getting him to buy into his part as a role player. He might not be the top backup to Rodgers... he might be a RB/QB options as you note here.. he might only have a snap every week or couple of weeks.

Can Mike Vick handle being a role player and not a thought to be more of a vital role in the offense?

[I see Vick landing on a team that's desperate, I don't see us as being desperate. Our organization is too classy for Vick and the ensuing drama to follow. Don't think for a minute that PETA is not going to be at the door step of whatever NFL team signs him. Packers do not want another circus.

Yeah.....MUCH better to let the deer over populate, and die a slow, agonizing death from starvation then to have hunters take the meat home and eat it. MUCH better to have carcasses rotting in the woods.
Of course PETA reps don't go into the woods to see THAT in areas where hunting isn't allowed. They just pat themselves on the back for being such "animal lovers".
With that said, I think Vick got what he deserved. HUGE difference between hunting, to purposely torturing animals. I don't want him here. To me, he never showed remorse for what he did.

Here PETA PETA PETA... lol..

However in reality.. dogfighting and such is where PETA should be active.. not in fly swatting, deer hunting and other controlled animal control practices..

Sigh...do you realize how long it has been since some of us have had venison sausage? Or fried some venison with a mess of onions?

When I first moved to Iowa I still got back to Wisconsin often enough that an old hunting buddy would give me a couple big sticks of venison summer sausage. But that ended probably 15 years ago. Sigh.

:sad:

P.s. what I think of PETA isn't printable.

I think Vick paid his due. I wouldn't mind seeing him here but I just don't know how he would fit in. The way I think he would fit in doesn't seem like Vick would be okay with it (a role player as someone said above).

Look, I think Tony Dungy is one of the most respectable faces of the NFL. If he is willing to put his neck out for Vick, I don't see an issue here.

That's an indication that Woodson does not do his own research into matters and goes with the what the little birds around the internet are 'reporting'.

Jay Glazer or Chris Mortensen ... they say something that, then I'll think about considering it be somewhat truthful.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest
beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?
beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*
beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota
beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th
beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?
beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead
beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
