He is overpaid, overhyped, and overdue, for some extreme criticism. He has had his butt kissed since he became a pro, and with the exception of one trip to the NFC championship, hasn't shown much else. McNabb is a ten times better QB than Vick, and has the stats, as well as the wins, to prove it, but still Vick gets all of the attention.

Michael Vick is the second coming of Kordell Stewart. I said it when he came into the league, and I haven't changed my mind about it. He will be a Falcon, for about two more years, and then, just like Culpepper, who is also a bust, he will be traded, and eventually, forgotten. IMO.

Look you guys are missing the point. I just said I'm not ready to say that he's not a QB, you have to be some type of QB to throw for 20 tds in this league. As for being over paid, i thought that the minute they gave him that contract "ridiculous". And as fas as being over hyped, of course he is, but that can go for a hell of a lot of players in this league. And please, you must have forgotten about Steve Young earlier years, he would run out of the pocket before he even set his feet. Young didn't start being a great QB until he ***** and whined his way into the starting lineup and pave the way for the great Joe Montana to leave and go to K.C. And he still wasn't great until another great Jerry Rice pulled him to the side and told him to stay in pocket and throw the DAM ball to the receivers. Last time i checked Vick, Steward, and everybody else that was mentioned didn't have the weapons that Young had, and he still had to be told by the players to stay in the pocket and go through his progressions.
