Skills challenge doesn't matter. Cunningham won one once. Manning was great. Vick showed what happens when you give him some protection. He was the only NFC QB to do anything worth a damn in that game.

Your right the skills challenge doesnt mean s*** brees did good there, during this last season he showed he has the skills. Vick has always struck me as a whiner Manning has proved that he knows the game and has the heart. Troy aikman had heart at one time but lost it. Brees would do great with dallas hes kinda of a guy that can say f*** you to the coachs face and and show his stuff. Im still dreaming i know

Vick a whiner?! See, Tuberski, this is what I'm talking about! The media has created this view of Vick. What has he EVER whined about? I'd say that Vick is the least whining person I've seen in professional sports. He never complains about the refs, his fellow players, nothing.

running QB's suck.

yeah, yeah I know. I kind of like the guy after his performance in this year's playoffs. He's got talent. He just needs to learn to use it in the proper way.

I haven't heard anything about Vick saying anything about his WRs not being able to do their jobs. In fact, he keeps praising them when they ****ing suck so damn bad!

I think people are just trying to get anything to stick on Vick .

It'd help if his WRs EVER got open. In the Pro-Bowl he looked WR first, because they had talent and were able to get seperation.

Good for Dallas. Bledsoe had his best years under Parcells and I think he'll get rejuvinated under him again. He's got a few more miles left on that arm, and Drew Henson can't step in now.

No shock. Signing Hasselbeck allowed Seattle to franchise Alexander instead of losing him.

Again, no shock. You don't trade such a gamebreaker, especially when he makes you a ton of money on merchandising .

Or rather they don't have anyone else they'd rather franchise . The Falcons are so good, they don't have to franchise anyone . Same goes for the Giants, btw.

Vick with legit WR talent to go with the ATL ground game would be scary.

I thought Jenkins was a good draft pick last year, but he never really surfaced. Was he bad, or just underused?

Well he was a rookie. Usually most recievers 'break out' in their 3rd year. I'm willing to give him a chance, even if the sporttalk guys are already writing him off. He may be a Freddie Mitchell (horrible 1st round bust), or he may end up being fairly productive. I think it is too early to say. However, I think Atlanta needs a veteran WR, if just to teach young WRs like Jenkins the tools of the trade.

They paid big bucks and did not get commensurate results.

They need a hot rookie and a free agent wideout this year. It won't be to hard to imporve over Dez White and Brian Finneran...

Don't know Atlanta's other needs, cap issues, etc. But they could be a kickass offense with a little better WR corps, the ongoing maturing process of M. Vick, and some cohesion/experience in running the offense.

Assuming no major brain cramps, Atlanta is my preseason pick to unseat the Eagles next year.

Cap is ok, I guess. I can't wait until Price comes off the books. The Falcons desparately needs some offensive line help! The running game and Vick hides the fact that the O-Line couldn't pass block a damn thing.

I wouldn't be surprised if they go after a Tackle in the 1st round. And in the get a Guard to go with him at some point. They also need some secondary help, but that's because Hall was a rookie and there were injuries on the other side, so I'm not sure if there will be an early draft pick on that.

Though I expect WR and OL to be drafted in the 1st two rounds at least (if not the first THREE).

If Bledsoe flops in Dallas, I'll bet Parcells is gone from there as well because Jerry Jones has been wanting Drew Henson in there but he is letting the Tuna do his thing.

Dallas also released DE Marcellus Wiley one year after giving him a huge contract...

Ravens release WR Kevin Johnson. Look for the Eagles to pick him up because he played with McNabb in college and they worked well together. See ya Freddie Mitchell!

not a bad move considering how many games kickers won and lost last season. And new young kickers just aren't there anymore. Vinatieri has won them so many games. I'm not saying he's more important than Brady. But all of Brady's efforts to get down the field into field goal position would be for naught, if they didn't have a clutch field goal kicker.

I think too many kickers get dissed in the league for being useless and whiners (like VAnderjat ). But this guy deserves his paycheck.
