Vick 73 OVR?

Re: Vick 73 OVR?

73 is decent this year. Better than a lot of QB's who IMO are better than Vick, such as Leinart, Boller, Culpepper, Young, Huard I think as well.

Vick's speed will probably be what has put him as high as 73.

Every single last filthy funky stinking one of those qbs are terrible. Don't trip. He didn't lose that much. It's like the same thing when you play basketball in high school or something and then don't pick up the rock until you get out of college. The first few times that you play will be rocky. Then, you eventually get it back. You don't talent. Just stamina, strength, etc.

Guys he really is not that bad:

Re: Vick 73 OVR?

I agree that his rating is too high.
He was a garage QB to begin with, and now he's been sitting in a prison cell for two years.
How do you give him a 73? Especially after all the ratings were reduced.
But thats EA for you, playing to the interest of the idiot fan.

Without the speed his overall rating would be a lot worse, no? He's got a strong arm and very mediocre accuracy. I think they did a decent job.

Re: Vick 73 OVR?

. As for Farve I could care less. I never liked the guy and get sick of hearing he wants to retire, comback, retire again, comeback again. All Brett farve wants is the attention on him. Vick's signing meant the attention wasnt on farve so he had to get it back.

I could not have said it any better myself....sick of Favre bean

Re: Vick 73 OVR?

ONLY?!? A 73 with these "new" scale of ratings is practically a solid starter!

Re: Vick 73 OVR?

Vick may not be worth waiting to start a franchise for but a patch and regular season rosters are. Until those come I will be playing mainly online.

For those who think Vick is overated, he is a #1 overall pick and 3 time pro bowler still in his prime, if anything he is underated. The main part of his game is his legs, he didnt lose those in jail. You should look in the mirror instead of calling us "Idiot Fans"

I got tired of Farve not making up his mind too, but this time a Vikings player said he would be playing. It isn't fair to blame Farve for Vikings players wanting him.

You obviously don't have a clue what you are talking about.

#1: He wasn't a "garbage" QB to begin with. He had enough accuracy and arm strength to throw the deep ball as well as be extremely mobile.

Tell me something...if he was such a "garbage" QB to begin with then why did he have defensive coordinators UP ALL NIGHT trying to gameplan to play against him?

#2: Do you really believe that he sat in a cell for 2 years and did nothing? Ehhh..wrong again bud. If you do a little research, he actually played in a league while in prison, as well as worked out daily.

I agree with the ratings that Donny has set for him because even though he did some football and working out, he still will have alot of rust coming back to the NFL.

Exactly! This man was once some considered by some the most dangerous offensive weapon in the NFL, 3 time pro bowler, holder of many NFL records.

Some of you guys act like he was a 2nd string in his prime, he had some injury problems but when he could get on the field he was the most dangerous man on the field, there is no reason he cannot get somewhat close to that level if healthy.

Finally, some people with some sense. I couldn't believe how many people were saying Vick wasn't really all the good even before he went to jail. He's only remembered for his speed and rushing ability, but he actually had one of the stronger arms in the league. Even now, reports out of Eagles camp, are that his arm may be stronger than McNabb's from what they've seen. And the receivers were raving about his deep accuracy. This guy was arguably the top QB in the league in his prime (up there with Brady and Manning.) 73 is a perfect rating (judging by the individual ratings I was looking at earlier in the thread).

Re: Vick 73 OVR?

his ratings are fine if his awr attribute is low enough.yes he could run and yes he drove defenses crazy but he wasnt that smart a qb. His passer ratings were below average at best and obviously if he's going to give up everything he had over some silly small-time dog fights, he aint the sharpest tool in the shed.... 73 seems more than fair considering nobody has seen him in a uniform in two years..(a football uniform, i mean..lol...not state-issued)

OMG!! Up there with Manning and Brady. Really???
How many Super Bowls/ MVP's has Vick won?? ZERO
What's his winning percentage as a starter?
How many playoff victory's does he have?

Look up his career stats. Mainly his passer rating. He's not even Atlanta's best QB much less the best QB in the NFL. Chris Chandler, Bobby Hebert & Jeff George were all better PASSER'S .

Vick is athletic and a weapon but, McNabb is by far a better PASSER. Plus, to think that Vick hasn't lost a step after being out of football for two years is just plain ignorant. But, then again this whole Vick thing is soooo old. I can't believe that I allowed myself to get sucked into it again but, I had to add my .02 about the Manning/Brady comparison.

Back on topic, IMO, his rating is Madden rating is probably a little higher than it should be. He should lose some more awareness points for sure.

I always wondered who, in their right mind, could vote for Vick for the Pro Bowl. Now I know. (and knowing is half the battle...)
