He's got him on stats, I'll give you that. But have you seen the talent level on A&M's squad to any of Vick's VT squads during those years?
Vick was all flash and no production. He was drafted high because he ran like Barry Sanders and had an arm like Elway. He accuracy was poor and never really learned how to play the position except for that one year under Reid when he was broke and needed some money. Your comment though Manziel would be lucky to be compared to half what Vick did in college. is wrong because Vick would be lucky to be compared to half of what Manziel did in college based on production.
Vick had some great talent on those VT teams, however the style of offense was so much different. Manziel has a wide open passing offense. Vick ran more of a triple option, read option offense. In '99 vick only had 182 passing attempts, in 2000 he had 161. Manziel has had 434 and 429 attempts in his 2 season. I was so hyped on Vick when he came out, I watched/followed him since high school. I rooted for atlanta while he played for them. The biggest thing that both of them have in common is the running style is always "I can beat you every time" instead of sliding and not taking the hits. Thats not a good thing, and it is so hard to try and curb that running style and teaching them to get down and live to run another play. Look at RG3, same problem. Im an Aggie, and I hope JFF does good in the NFL, I just dont think he will be one of the greats.
Sorry to say, but Wade is out. I would like to be a fly on the wall in a defensive side of the ball players only meeting.
Vick T's squads hung with FSU in their hey day. Talent level aside, Manziel is the better overall pocket passer.
This is a good thing. This defense couldn't stop anyone when it mattered. I predict Wade will most likely DC for Washington and with RG3 healthy, a playoff emergence from the Redskins in that weak conference.
disagree. now is not the time to gamble pick the smartest player get the consensus jewel qb draft teddy
Niners and saints were wild cards in that conference, they could both easily challenge for top overall seeds in the AFC. Hell even the cards could be a top 3 seed in the AFC. AFC>NFC
I'm assuming you meant weak division (NFC East), because the NFC as a conference is significantly stronger than the AFC right now.
It's hard to understand John McClain with Johnny Football's dick in his mouth. Even more so than the normal pancakes and flubber in his mouth.
