Vick to KC next season?

**kcchiefs28** · 09-20-2010, 09:36 PM

I'm pretty sure Vicks contract will be up at the end of the season (?) and he will probably be going somewhere that he would start and I would be happy if he came to KC. I like Cassell but if he doesn't play that good this year then I think Vick could be a good fit. Also it would bring in another playmaker along with Charles and McCluster.

Reading between the lines, I think the opinions of most of the people on this forum have been formed by what we went through with LJ. I see one major difference though. Vick at least appears to have been humbled and to have gotten his act together. LJ didn't even try to look like he wanted to become a better person.

I am a big fan of forgiveness. I would not object to giving Vick a chance. You just put him on a short leash (no pun intended). Let him know we are willing to give him a chance, but have a clause in his contract so that he understands, if he steps out of line, he will be cut.

I will admit that I wanted LJ out of KC. There was no sign of him changing, and cutting him was probably the best thing for him. I am glad that other teams have given him a chance to get his act together and I hope he has become a better person.

But to answer the question, I don't think Vick fits the offense the Chiefs are trying to run. As far as his career has been, he's not consistent.

Sic He took a 45 pound weight and tied it around a dod and threw it in a pool to watch it struggle for it life.

he took a car battery to another dogs testicals.

He took a dog by his hind legs and picked it up and slammed it on the ground head first to amuse an audience.

That just isn't right. I know he paid his time for it, but I personally don't think it was enough. I don't care what kind of talent he is on the field. I couldn't support this team if Vick was our Qb. He does not fit the Piolo/Haley type of character and truly hope, the Chiefs fix any QB problem they may have the right way.

Don't forget, he reason the league came down so hard wasn't the dogfighting. That was just the most salacious issue for the public. The reason Vick pled out was because of the racketeering issues, which could have led to RICO forfeiture. He was bankrolling the gambling for the dogfights. In no way, shape, or form can he ever be trusted to be a team player.

But even if you put aside Vick's personal ethical issues, and put aside the fact that a large percentage of the fanbase would hate him, he just isn't that great a QB. And even if you disagree with that, he isn't a QB who's accurate enough to exist in our precise passing system.

We'd be better off going for a low-risk game manager in 2011 than going with Vick.

I honestly wish the Broncos hadn't extended Orton, because I would have loved to sign Orton to a 2 year deal and draft a QB to develop for a year or two.

He may have changed his ways, I honestly hope he has, but I still would not like to see hi m adorn the red and gold.

...Unless, of course, were talking about the Red Skins.

No Way , No How!!! No Vick.

Me too. Orton is the definition of a smart game manager. There's a reason his record's 30-20, and it isn't because he's had great WRs, coaches, or offensive lines.

Unfortunately, the best FA QBs in 2011 are Matt Moore, Alex Smith, Shaun Hill, Seneca Wallace, Dennis Dixon, and Bruce Gradkowski (who I expect will resign with Oakland). That's an ugly bunch of QBs right there.

I could care less about Vicks dog fighting racket. Its not what I would do, but he was made an example.

I have several dogs and take good care of them, and would have to hurt anyone trying to hurt them.

If you and I and everyone else let all their dogs loose and allowed them to do what they wanted many of these dogs would fight each other to their death ,its just their nature .

Who are we to take these animals out of their natural ways and lock them in our homes and kennels, and or a lease? Is that any better?

Hmmmm.

Ever wonder what a bird thinks, sitting in the cage for 20 years when they used to have the whole jungle?

Every one of these animals would rather fight and die then be locked up, caged or on a lease.......just my 2 cents!

And yes I eat meat every night, and love it! I even do a lot of my own butchering.

Nope Please dont make Vick a chief.

We don't touch him with a pole.

Kinda like cassel , he's really earning that guaranteed money he's getting

Vick is now the starter for the eagles too. Took Kolb's job right away from him. NICE!

I like Vick alot. I think all the people that say he is not a good quarterback need to watch the game he just had where it was a POCKET passer and was amazing at it.

I don't think it would happen for one especially now that he's the starter.. But in Andy Reid's press conference it sounded like Kolb might be available soon.
