so basically what your saying is none of them are better than tom brady just because they dont win the super bowl.

I would use Mark Rypien as a better example... tho around here people are more willing to write off Brady as average

Tom Brady is a clutch QB and he is very talented. I'm not a big fan of Tom Brady, but he is a good QB. However, he is (was) surrounded by a great deal of talent; especially on defense. Peyton Manning and Michael Vick never really had a stellar defense on their team in past years. It will be interesting to see how they perform when they make the playoffs this year.

I came to this thread to see if anyone wanted to comment on the performance today, another good performance, but came out on the losing end.
Now I ask the ? to those that were basically saying it all about stats.
Is it all about stats or is it about the W.
By the way we all knew Farve was going to stay down all season.

Does his performance prove us both wrong? It is not all about stats. I didn't get a chance to see the game. Vick has been atrocious throwing the ball this season until the last 2 games. Does throwing 20 for 30 for 200+ yards 2 touchdowns against a bad defense really prove your point? He is going to have to consistently perform like this against great defenses for Atlanta to make the Super Bowl.

Am I the only person who thinks the Falcons would be better off starting their backup QB and turning Vick into a "Slash"? He would still be in every play either at WR, RB, or QB, but he would be put in a position to make more big plays since the whole defense wouldn't be designed to stop him.
The Falcons remind me of my brothers 7 grade football team several years ago. They started the season with the best athlete on the team playing QB and my brother playing WR. My brother was a good WR, but he didn't have the speed to break the game like the kid playing QB. After my brother threw a few reverse passes for TD's the coaches realized the team would be more explosive if they switched my brother and the other kid. That's how the team stayed for the next 3 years and in 9th grade they ended up 9-1, the best 9th grade record since his big brother's team went undefeated. (sorry had to give my team some props.)
