Explains about Mike Vick...

Michael Vick, the 32-year-old starting quarterback of the Philadelphia Eagles, has played 10 seasons in the NFL, played two seasons at Virginia Tech, started three years for his high school team and probably played youth football for many years before that. And throughout those thousands of practices and hundreds of games, Vick says nobody taught him how to properly carry a football.

It is absolutely mind-blowing that Vick didn't know the correct way to carry a football before new Eagles coach Chip Kelly pulled him aside at a recent practice and taught him, but that's what he told PhillyMag.com:

“Chip told me how to run with the football the other day,” Vick said. “He taught me how to run with the football and how to carry the football, and I think it’s something that you just have to work on.”

This will be a disaster. Vick lacks the apptitude to run that offense.

Lets hear it for the Falcons coaching staff for overlooking this minor detail!

He's won more playoff games then Romo. Protect him and he'll eat you alive.

Way to put the bar high, Romo is surely known as the gold standard in the NFL.

he's a 2nd tier guy. He deserves to start. And so does Vick.
