    What has Vick done since 2010? I don't give a shit about the dog thing. He has very little left in his brittle body

    Probably because he realizes how shitty this organization is from the owner to the HC

    You his doc? Otherwise no idea how you could surmise that his body is bad let alone exactly ten years older than his actual age.

    Geno is on a record pace for most turnovers in NFL history in a QB's first 2 years, at least Vick makes fucking plays, who fucking runs out of bounds for a 2 yard loss out the pocket, thats not even a rookie mistake thats just stupidity.

    Take a look at his stats from 2011-2013. Id take any of those. He didnt play a full season due to injury which sure is a concern but there are plenty of injury prone players. If you arent playing him because he might get hurt that is just dumb.

    Did you even watch him play in Philly? Newsflash: He missed about 20 games after becoming the starter after Week 1 in 2010

    Kyle Orton I think would be a better fit with us than Vick. I dont have the numbers in front of me, but Orton probably takes better care of the ball. It still seems like Vick is an improvement over Geno, though.

    The embarrassing thing about this is that you could argue EJ Manuel is better than Geno Smith....less turnovers....equal completion percentage ....much higher QB rating

    He still is better then Geno or Orton. Thats the part you dont see for some reason.... Wow, just wow.....Would love you to show me something outside of maybe injury proneness to say otherwise.

    Ok and what is your point. If Vick can spart the offense for 5 games and then gets hurt then so be it. Not even saying he should but fear of health for a reason to not play someone is dumb.

    Thanks for the news on Buffalo. I saw some clips of Manuel last night and wondered about how Buffalo also had a qb controversy, although ftr Manuel is not as bad as Smith.

    So Buffalo makes the switch. How about that, it can be done!

    Manuel is worse than Geno Smith, considerably worse. That probably makes the decision easier.

    Geno is better than EJ
    Vick better than Orton

    Seattle wouldn't have gone anywhere w/ Orton last year. No one will go anywhere w/ Orton.

    Agree. He's a career backup for a reason.

    No way man, Manuel is terrible. At least Smith takes chances (perhaps to a fault). Manuel is too much of a pussy to take any chances. Plus his accuracy is just abysmal.

    I understand it's like comparing a shit steak to a shit sandwich but Manuel is worse than Geno Smith

    I have not seen Manuel play this year yet, but I thought at least stat wise that he's doing better than Smith.

    Interesting that they are playing Orton. Have to see how that goes.

    Orton's not the best example because he isnt any good but Manuel wasn't producing.

    If a guy isn't getting the job done you don't just roll with him when you have options like the Jets have.
