Is Micheal Vick the best QB in the NFL?

He may quite possibly be at least this year be the best QB in the NFL..

I agree!

Andy Reid has made the most of his passing ability, and with his scrambling ability; very dangerous.

Yes he is...hands down. He is down right scary. Good WRs are helping him shine also.

As a Saints fan i am straight hating the fact at how good he is.. but as a football fan i am appreciating just all out good and exciting Skills and ball game! WOW!!!! I hope philly doesn't make the playoffs they will be unstoppable as long as Vick and his WR's are healthy!

It's like Vick has been watching film of Fran Tarkenton ... very heady play with the run and the pass.

Ron Mexico? Is that you? Quit the shameless self-promotion already!

When Brees stunk it up this year against those fast 3-4 defenses, Vick would've been the perfect counter to that. Payton obviously has no faith in Daniels as he kept Brees in way too long (Arizona, Atlanta, Cleveland).

You don't pull All Pro/Hall of Fame quarterbacks even if they're struggling. Brees is one of the top quarterbacks in the league... that would have been a slap in the face. You'd never see Peyton, Brady, Rodgers, etc. pulled for a game unless is a complete blowout... why would Brees be an exception?

Correlating that into Payton having no faith in Daniels does not relate. Our starting quarterback isn't Alex Smith or Chad Henne... it's Drew Brees. We would have a veteran quarterback backing up Brees if Payton had "no faith" in Chase Daniels.

The only thing that would have happened if we pulled brees for some other QB or Mike Vick, would be that we would create a contraversy and basically alienated a guy that has pretty much been the saviour of the city and the organisation. As papz said, Brees is an all pro and i'm going to say will be a hall of famer once his career is over, Mike Vick is playing well but Brees is way way way better. Vick is just a change of pace for the Eagles, i do admit hes playing real well.

The answer is no. He is dynamic, and he is a much better player post prison than pre, but he still makes it happen with his feet. He needs the time because, in my opinion, he takes a while to read a defense.

What I saw on Monday night looked to me like a team that was not prepared to defend him, and you do have to adjust your game for a player of his caliber.

But the best QB in the NFL? Ummmm no. Brady, Manning, Brees or Rivers and probably a few more before you get to Vick...
