    Default Vick to Eagles

    Michael Vick to the Eagles on a Two Year*Contract - Arrowhead Pride

    So Vick to Chiefs can be put to rest.

    Edit (additonal sources):

    Michael Vick signs two-year deal with Philadelphia Eagles - ESPN
    Flying to Philly: Reinstated QB Vick signs two-year deal with Eagles
    Report: Vick lands with Eagles | National Football Post

    They all cite Mort. but we all know how sketchy his sources can be

    Edit 2: In spite of any personal opinions one can't deny that the Eagles are loaded on offense. The addition of Vick only adds another dimension to an already stacked corps of specialist (Maclin, McNabb, DeSean, Westbrook, Vick, Curtis, McCoy, etc...)

    Vick is in for some interesting times in Philadelphia. Those people are going to rip him up unless he does some hugely magnificent things there. I could not think of a better place for him to go, both from being a Chiefs fan, and for the payback he will receive for the things he has done wrong.


    Are you man enough? Eric Berry? Apparently Not!

    As long as he didn't sign with the Chiefs, I'm a happy camper.

    I wish the raiders would have signed him, so we could watch the 04' dirty bird game again, but this time it would be the raiders instead.

    The weird thing is, Andy Reid said he was happy with his QB situation and wasn't interested in Vick just a couple days ago. I wonder who all was pulling for him to be in Philly.

    Thanks Aussie!

    Heh! Philly don't play.

    The Vick family sure is a classy bunch, eh? Whatever happened to his little bro, btw? Last I heard he pulled a gun on someone in a McDonald's or something...

    Don't forget he can only play 2 preseason games then he has to wait for the Commis to say if he can play early or not.

    The Wildcat offense i see being dead in a year or so, so i don't see them using it like that. Their back-up got injured (Kolb or Knolb i don't know his name) so he'll be a back up or just a KR or PR

    He'll be re-instated. The NFL likes its story lines, just like any other form of entertainment. The "Wait-and-see" factor is just to provide an element of suspense/offer an out to the organization if he's brazen enough to do something else as stupid as his dog fighting ring. They're betting that he won't, and I'm betting that that's a pretty safe bet.

    Despite the horrendous things he's done, I'm sure Vick will behave as a stand-up guy the remainder of his NFL career. Whether this behavior truly reflects the man's actual moral compass doesn't really matter. Vick paid just about the most severe of tolls for his actions and had "the life" taken away from him. It visibly shook him. He wants money more than he wants to see dogs slaughter each other.

    Don't get me wrong, I think the guy's an (pardon the pun) S.O.B for essentially torturing animals, but I'm quite certain that he at least learned that he can't indulge in behavior like that while he's associated with an international commercial product like the NFL.

    I am curious, though, if the Eagles will find a way to get Michael in their offense this year, since he probably won't be playing QB unless McNabb gets hurt. I'm also wondering about the figures. How much did he get signed for? He was bragging a few months back that he'd get a 30 or 50 mil contract. It would really ease my mind to know that he got something significantly less.
