He the reason we get to watch Lamar and other great mobile qbs today .i met him when i was 10 at yhe mall in ATL and he was arguing with his girl but seen me wearing his jersey.he pulled up on me and said hey you got a pen ?.my mom look thru her purse and didnt have one so he took me to the restaurant and asked for a pen then walked me to his car and signed a autograph football for me and told me do i play football and i said i yes im number 8 cuz nobody can play 7 like you and he said one day ill see number 8 and ill remember you .
Lamar more often than not is completely incoherent you can understand a single sound out of his mouth (they aren't words that's for sure) he's pitifully stupid and should be a glaring example of how much of a joke our education system is while not caring about the long livelyhood of similar young men. Being that Lamar never learned how to truly be a QB his inevitable career ending injury will get here just that much sooner.......and what's absolutely INSANE is he has RG3 on HIS TEAM what should be a cautionary tale but nah let's just keeping running into the teeth of defenses. He's painfully slow in comparison to vick and in addition to not being able to read defenses probably can't READ period...... Honestly
The way Michael Vick would just sling the football when throwing looked like the ball came out of a cannon. Such a short range of motion but it looked like he was flicking the ball with ease every time he would throw the ball downfield 40+ yards. He was one of the best deep ball throwers in NFL history IMO. That was one of his skills that he didn't get as much attention for as his breathtaking quickness and speed did. Ask Michael the last time he ever under threw a football to a teammate lol

My favorite variation of Vick was his takeover of the Eagles. That team was lightening in a bottle. So explosive and fun. Vick, Shady, and Jackson had too much speed.
I have had 3 dogs the majority of my adult life, and was a fair weather fan of the Eagles in the Buddy Ryan, Cunningham, Reggie White days and it stuck my whole life. I was extremely torn about Vick being an Eagle until the press conference. That was a man humbled greatly. Not often, hell hardly ever do you see someone so humbled and ready to face their worst act head on for the rest of their life. He never ran from it.
Look at the way he played, he was hungry. He may have fooled me but I believe he payed his debt. Like you said, the man didn’t act like a victim. He fucked up and payed for it with his head up ; I can respect that.
I met him at a Norfolk State football game in 2015, or so. He was so humble and kind to EVERYONE that you would have never known how skilled he was if you weren’t a sports fan. It is tragic how he was targeted for selective prosecution in Virginia, but that story remains the same, although many choose not to acknowledge it. For the record, I love dogs and I am a former federal prosecutor. Grace and Peace
@@Ihadtputsomerhing he paid his time for that, and came back with the Eagles just to prove the first time with the Atlanta Falcons wasn't a fluke. In fact in the second part of his career he became a much more efficient passer, it wasn't just the rushing yards. There has NEVER been a better rushing quarterback than Michael Vick, and his stats in actuality were it but for the fact that he never won a ring would have put him up there with other great quarterbacks like John Elway.

John Elway only threw for over 60percent accuracy in the second part of his career, and no one said Elway wasn't accurate enough. It doesn't stop people recognising Elway as an elite quarterback either. Sit down and realise that black people are allowed to sit at the back of the bus.

That 2010 season was incredible to watch. It's unfortunate that the management around him weren't able to put him in a position to improve upon his performance from that year.
Michael Vick is my favorite athlete of all time as a quarterback who had the athleticism and a strong arm. He did something no quarterback has ever done in NFL history.
the MNF game against Washington in 2010 is probably the NFL game i remember better than any in my life. Vick threw an 88 yard bomb to Desean Jackson on the first play of the game and the Eagles were up 35-0 after 1 play into the 2nd quarter. Vick ended the game with like 400 total yards passing & rushing and 6 total touchdowns. it was the most impressive QB performance i've ever seen to this day. Vick was like if Barry Sanders was a quarterback with a rocket for an arm. we'll probably never see another athlete like him again.
My favorite Michael Vick moments... 1) His run in overtime to beat the Vikings and 2) Him accepting responsibility for the dog fighting ring and accepting his punishment. I gained a ton of respect for him for that
Did the time justly and is now a huge advocate for animal shelters and adoption programs. Can never hate on hate on a person for genuinely bettering themselves and putting in the effort so even more respect points for that
Vick paved the way for Mobile QBs we see today. The most electrifying player in his time, You don't have to like the man, but you can definitely respect the athlete.
The only thing electrifying about him is when he would electrocute dogs for fun. :) that's the guy you're patting on the back. Want him to dogsit for your house?
@@jaquandrejones You don't have to like him as a man, but you can definitely respect the athlete. At the same time, it's not my place to judge another man's mistakes. He paid his debt to society. We have to stop holding these stars to higher standards than we hold for ourselves. I don't care what Vick did in his personal life. I'm only crediting his work on the field.
@@MrReece9 HIGHER STANDARDS????? ok so you'd be cool with your dad electrocuting dogs lmao since he's a normal dude. You'd see your dad the same, right? Since who are youuuuu to judge.

@@jaquandrejones Bruh. This is about football. You're thinking too deep. Michael Vick is a great athlete. You don't have to like it. But there's people who love it. Sorry you're still stuck in the past.
@@MrReece9 imagine saying "you're stuck in the past" because you know you're praising a literal monster. By your 4 year old logic, hitler himself would have been a good dude if he lived long enough. Since Vick did, and now he's a good person suddenly. Why wouldn't that apply to everyone else? Don't get butthurt because you think like a literal child. I'm not exaggerating.
Vick is my favorite player of all time no doubt, but the Eagles had Randall Cunningham and Steelers had Flash so yes, Vick is better still people seem to forget those players especially how good an Eagles Cunningham really was. Randall had a huge cannon with lots of mobility. I know in 1990 he had like 3500 passing yards 30tds 13 INTs also he rushed for almost a 1,000 with 5tds all in one season . It’s crazy how people just forget.
I think Cunningham was a lot better QB than Vick. Much better passer. Looking at 3 all pros vs 0. Honestly, Randall IMO is the most underrated player in NFL history. His numbers, especially for the time, were crazy
Wish he had a head coach early in his career who could actually coach QBs in the NFL. When he got with Andy Reid, it was amazing. I will never forget that game against Washington where he looked like a video game character.
Awesome video. Just want to say, I’m a die hard Vick fan. I watched him as a young boy and loved the way he played and loved how he transformed into a better person after all the drama. He’ll go down as my favorite NFL player ever. Even over Brady or Marino and other certified greats. Watching him obliterates NFL defenses was a blessing to watch.
My favorite Michael Vick moment is when he returned to Atlanta in 2009 defeating Matt Ryan when Michael Vick ran for one touchdown and threw for another when Michael Vick was a member of the Philadelphia Eagles beating them 34-7 in Atlanta in the Georgia dome!!! My Second favorite Michael Vick moment is when Michael Vick defeating the Washington Redskins in their stadium at FedEx Field defeating former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donnovan McNabb when Michael Vick threw for four touchdowns and ran for two touchdowns in D.C defeating the Washington Redskins 59-28, the same year Michael Vick won 2010 comeback player of the year award when Michael Vick was a member of the Philadelphia Eagles!!! Michael Vick had a good year in 2009, 2010 and 2013!!! I've been a Michael Vick fan since he got out of prison!!! I know some people will never forgive Michael Vick and I know some people have forgiven Michael Vick and I been one of the guys who have forgiven Michael Vick!!! Michael Vick has always been my man and been keeping up with Michael Vick for a long time!!! I love Michael Vick and I always will love Michael Vick!!! Michael Vick is the best dual threat quarterback ever!!! I love Michael Vick!!!
He is Artful, smooth and cool. I tell you if you watch his back games on youtube, you still get that sensation of excitement for you didn't know if he was going to run or throw and if they were going to get him...
DUDE ALMOST beat FSU by himself in that championship game!! He had the Nole's running in circles for 3 quarters AND the Nole's were LOADED! Unbelievable!
Miracle in the Meadowlands 2, can’t forget how Vick led the Eagles back from a huge deficit late in the game. He always gave it 110%! Especially against NFC East rivals. Something Eagles teams in recent yrs can’t seem to bring
my favorite line about Vick was when John Madden said " When you do these games all season and you've been around the league , you ask, who's the fastest runner ? - this year it's Michael Vick . Then you ask who has the strongest arm ,? This year it's Michael Vick . I don't think I've ever seen that before".
He wasn't a great passer in his falcon days. He barely completed 50% then. He became a better passer with the eagles. He commited to learning to sit in the pocket instead of being a running qb, which was a good thing.
@@fishdeeck71 reading a lot of the comments here shows how biased hella folks are. He was a cultural icon and was a high light reel but he wasn’t really that efficient if we’re being completely honest 😂. Your response is spot on
Michael Vick is and was the best dual threat quarterback in the NFL!!! I love Michael Vick!!! Let's go Falcons, Let's go Eagles, Let's go Jets and Let's go Steelers!!! Rise up dirty birds, Fly Eagles Fly, J e t s Jets Jets Jets and Steelers Nation Unite!!! I missed Michael Vick!!! I love the dude!!! Michael Vick is my man!!! Michael Vick is the man!!! I 🖤 #7!!!

Whether he makes it into the hall of fame or not, I'll always love Michael Vick!!! That's my man!!! Best dual threat quarterback ever!!!
Michael Vick is my childhood icon Like this man was an insane freak of nature He revolutionized the running game and is the best running QB out there sure you may think of Randall Cunningham but Michael Vick stands out more and was way more iconic
@@DirtyKoolAid I mean if you idolize terrible people you have to accept everything that comes with it.

Get the fuck out of here with the "AHHH JUST BECAUSE YOUR IDOL DOES ONE BAD THING" Just because he was a great sports athlete doesn't mean it's someone you should idolize, He ran the ball good and that's it. End of story, choose your idols better or be prepared to defend your decision for picking a shitty human being who happens to be good at one thing. Lemme guess your favorite artist happens to be Chris Brown.
Michael Vick is one of my very favorite players of all time, watching him was pure excitement. I liked it better when he was in ATL though lol I’m a Cowboys fan so I could root for Vick except when PHI played us.
Vick for as much as a legend as he is, as a qb was pretty mixed. He had a Cannon of an arm but wasn't all that accurate even for the era he was in, never even coming close to a 60% completion percentage during Atlanta, and only doing so once his whole career, that 2010 year with Philly. He made up for it a lot with his freakish athleticism and speed, in an era of big slow linebackers that made him a nightmare for defenses. That also came with him getting injured quite often, missing games a lot or playing banged up. He's arguably more backed up as a Madden legend than he was on the field
unpopular opinion, Mike Vick had the highest ceiling for GOAT potential at QB ever.. From a physical standpoint literally the most lethal dude ive ever seen it was all mental prep and discipline with him and when he finally starting composing himself sheeeeeesh
That MNF comeback against the Giants was insane,@@damidami02 . Singlehandedly made me start paying more attention to that team (I was already long since a Vick fan).
@@Eastsidesavage Damn. That’s cold. LOL! Doesn’t change the fact that he’s a POS. My black peoples need to stop worshiping idols. What you gotta say about that?
yeah but throwing is miles more important then running... and you know. aaron rodgers, tom brady, joe montana, payton manning, drew brees, alot of others are better if you look at any stat that dosent involve running
I thought the most amazing part of Vick's game was his elusiveness in the pocket. the only player better at avoiding contact that I've ever seen was Barry Sanders. As for Vick's weakness, I think he lacked touch on his passing. This shone through in his short and mid-range game where it often looked like he might scorch his receivers hands off. To be fair, Marino and Elway had issues with that early in their careers as well, but I think the maybe adjusted more quickly? /2cents
I chatted with him about the BLM movement on IG recently. He was extremely nice and a total gentleman❣️ And still one of my favorite players ever. I wonder if he will ever make it to Canton..
@@dawhooyt9877 and ray lewis was involved with a murder. Vick served time. Not saying its right but he could've easily just packed it in after that and went to a of crime or something not good. A lot of people don't try after they been given a second chance the y sit arpiund blaming the system or their environment and say they are who they are but Vick did a full 180. Not everyone is perfect in canton or other hall of fames.
Played against Vick 1 year jv and 3 years varsity. My team is in the clip at the start. Vick was the fastest player in pads period. He could threw the length of the field like it was nothing. Even though Ronald Curry won all the awards that senior year, I knew Vick would be a better pro.
It's sad to see all these talented players who suffered off the field issues. Who knows what could of been if he never went to prison , coming back and playing that good the sky was the ceiling for how much he could of improved.
Can't say I agree that this video has a very balanced representation of Vick's career here. Dogfighting stuff aside completely, you completely glossed over many key statistics about his career in favor of a focus on gross total yards and TD counts. What about the fact that in his 7 years that he started more than 10 games, he threw double digits worth of interception in 5 of those. He also fumbled more than 10 times in 5 of those 7 years. This led to his most productive years you cited here being plagued with nearly a 1 to 1 TD to turnover ratio. There is alot more to talk about here than was in my opinion.
I was gonna post something like this. This is a real rose-colored glasses look at this guy. He was no doubt the most electrifying runner as a QB probably ever, but his passing credentials outside of that one out-of-nowhere Philly season were always subpar.
The best he ever did on a season was 3,300 yards, in a time when the league leader was doing 4,500+. And in that lauded 2010 comeback campaign he finished 20th in the league. The two good years with the Eagles were the only times he broke 3,000. Highly over-rated guy who should have been running a single wing or wing-T or something.
He is most definitely a what could of been...Imagine if he had his head on straight and obsessively worked on accuracy and having a supercomputer mind of instinctive plays...Imagine
Man what a shame he had to back up these lesser QBs after the dog fighting scandal. Vick was far and away better than these bozos until the end of his career. Seemed like he didn't get a fair shake, even after he paid his debt like a man.
@@intro2133 no. 0 rings, 0 mvps, only threw for 3000 yards once, only had 2 20+ td seasons, never an all pro selection, missed multiple seasons with injury and dog fighting, only 15 game winning drives, only 22464 passing yards, 133 tds, 88 interceptions. transforming football and being mobile and fun to watch dont make you a hall of famer with those stats.
@@capt.jaylenbrown8534 eamn thtas really funny how you went that far and looked up all that stuff just to proge someone wrong when they did't know youw vould of simply said "he did not have the stats to be in yhe hall of fame"
Vick is like the Iverson of the NFL, a freak athlete, who was iconic and majorly influential over the next few generations of players that would follow them. Both also embroiled in controversy as well, very polarizing figures.

After drowning all those dogs, the buffoon needed a job. Lame!
@@tonygarza7685 stay hating
Guy was so good even PETA members were buyin Vick jerseys. One of my all time fav players to watch, he was electric
Michael Vick also had THE BEST SPIRAL in the NFL
Warren Moon did. IMO.
Vick and moon my opinion
Hate saying it but Brady about a decade ago
He spiraled dogs into a drown bucket.

Vick paved the way for Mobile QBs we see today. The most electrifying player in his time, You don't have to like the man, but you can definitely respect the athlete.
The only thing electrifying about him is when he would electrocute dogs for fun. :) that's the guy you're patting on the back. Want him to dogsit for your house?
@@jaquandrejones You don't have to like him as a man, but you can definitely respect the athlete. At the same time, it's not my place to judge another man's mistakes. He paid his debt to society. We have to stop holding these stars to higher standards than we hold for ourselves. I don't care what Vick did in his personal life. I'm only crediting his work on the field.
@@MrReece9 HIGHER STANDARDS????? ok so you'd be cool with your dad electrocuting dogs lmao since he's a normal dude. You'd see your dad the same, right? Since who are youuuuu to judge. Let's see who can throw babies at the wall the hardest next, since mistakes are just oopsies and if you sit in jail you're suddenly a good person now.
Simple minded nobody.
@@jaquandrejones Bruh. This is about football. You're thinking too deep. Michael Vick is a great athlete. You don't have to like it. But there's people who love it. Sorry you're still stuck in the past.
@@MrReece9 imagine saying "you're stuck in the past" because you know you're praising a literal monster. By your 4 year old logic, hitler himself would have been a good dude if he lived long enough. Since Vick did, and now he's a good person suddenly. Why wouldn't that apply to everyone else?
Don't get butthurt because you think like a literal child. I'm not exaggerating.
Vick was the best triple threat QB I've ever seen. He had it all and was a quarter back, amazing.
If Michael Vick had a system built around him like Lamar he would of been a NFL MVP and HOF
If he would’ve never made them dog fight he would be in HOF

Vick is my favorite player of all time no doubt, but the Eagles had Randall Cunningham and Steelers had Flash so yes, Vick is better still people seem to forget those players especially how good an Eagles Cunningham really was. Randall had a huge cannon with lots of mobility. I know in 1990 he had like 3500 passing yards 30tds 13 INTs also he rushed for almost a 1,000 with 5tds all in one season . It’s crazy how people just forget.
I think Cunningham was a lot better QB than Vick. Much better passer. Looking at 3 all pros vs 0. Honestly, Randall IMO is the most underrated player in NFL history. His numbers, especially for the time, were crazy
Slash not flash
Favorite Michael Vick moment would be the Michael Vick experience commercial in his early days as a falcon. It was hilarious.

Wish he had a head coach early in his career who could actually coach QBs in the NFL. When he got with Andy Reid, it was amazing. I will never forget that game against Washington where he looked like a video game character.
the thing was though even if he had a good coach he wasn't humble enough to accept it or take in coaching. that didn't happen until after prison.
As a Dallas native/ cowboys fan, I always loved Mike Vick growing up. Everybody wanted to be like him when we played backyard football!
summed up? Amazing athlete that was incredibly injury prone and had off field issues. Cannon arm and crazy fast
AND He fumbled a lot, dude carried the ball like a subway sandwich
Awesome video. Just want to say, I’m a die hard Vick fan. I watched him as a young boy and loved the way he played and loved how he transformed into a better person after all the drama. He’ll go down as my favorite NFL player ever. Even over Brady or Marino and other certified greats. Watching him obliterates NFL defenses was a blessing to watch.
My favorite Michael Vick moment is when he returned to Atlanta in 2009 defeating Matt Ryan when Michael Vick ran for one touchdown and threw for another when Michael Vick was a member of the Philadelphia Eagles beating them 34-7 in Atlanta in the Georgia dome!!! My Second favorite Michael Vick moment is when Michael Vick defeating the Washington Redskins in their stadium at FedEx Field defeating former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donnovan McNabb when Michael Vick threw for four touchdowns and ran for two touchdowns in D.C defeating the Washington Redskins 59-28, the same year Michael Vick won 2010 comeback player of the year award when Michael Vick was a member of the Philadelphia Eagles!!! Michael Vick had a good year in 2009, 2010 and 2013!!! I've been a Michael Vick fan since he got out of prison!!! I know some people will never forgive Michael Vick and I know some people have forgiven Michael Vick and I been one of the guys who have forgiven Michael Vick!!! Michael Vick has always been my man and been keeping up with Michael Vick for a long time!!! I love Michael Vick and I always will love Michael Vick!!! Michael Vick is the best dual threat quarterback ever!!! I love Michael Vick!!!
He is Artful, smooth and cool. I tell you if you watch his back games on youtube, you still get that sensation of excitement for you didn't know if he was going to run or throw and if they were going to get him...
DUDE ALMOST beat FSU by himself in that championship game!! He had the Nole's running in circles for 3 quarters AND the Nole's were LOADED!

He had dogs running in circles also. Before he would beat then drown them.

Miracle in the Meadowlands 2, can’t forget how Vick led the Eagles back from a huge deficit late in the game. He always gave it 110%! Especially against NFC East rivals. Something Eagles teams in recent yrs can’t seem to bring
The moment I heard your voice, I just went on to watch the entire video. Great voiceover!
my favorite line about Vick was when John Madden said " When you do these games all season and you've been around the league , you ask, who's the fastest runner ? - this year it's Michael Vick . Then you ask who has the strongest arm ,? This year it's Michael Vick . I don't think I've ever seen that before".
One of the best flicks in the game. No effort and a perfect spiral
People talk about his ability to run the ball, but people sleep on his passing abilities. Dude threw bullets, he rarely missed his receivers.
He wasn't a great passer in his falcon days. He barely completed 50% then. He became a better passer with the eagles. He commited to learning to sit in the pocket instead of being a running qb, which was a good thing.
@@fishdeeck71 reading a lot of the comments here shows how biased hella folks are. He was a cultural icon and was a high light reel but he wasn’t really that efficient if we’re being completely honest 😂. Your response is spot on
yes if only 50% of the time is "rarely" you are correct sir lol
@@fishdeeck71 well he had wide receivers who led the league and drops couldn’t catch them bullets
He fought tooth and nail during games. He was the top dog and every game with him was an absolute dog fight

@@DirtyKoolAid I mean if you idolize terrible people you have to accept everything that comes with it. Would you still idolize someone like Bill Cosby or Jared Fogle(Subway) because they inspired many to do great? Would you idolize someone like O.J simpson or Aaron Hernadez? They were solid all around people at their position. Hell up until the murders O.J simpson was a pillar to many of people.
Get the fuck out of here with the "AHHH JUST BECAUSE YOUR IDOL DOES ONE BAD THING" Just because he was a great sports athlete doesn't mean it's someone you should idolize, He ran the ball good and that's it. End of story, choose your idols better or be prepared to defend your decision for picking a shitty human being who happens to be good at one thing.

Mike Vick was so good off the field too

He was AMAZING!! It must be something in that VA water, him and A.I. are my FAVORITE athletes. And both played for my City PHILLY!
Thanks for the subtitles, by the way 👍🏼‼️
And Man...that 2004 team was a BEAST!
Michael Vick is one of my very favorite players of all time, watching him was pure excitement. I liked it better when he was in ATL though lol I’m a Cowboys fan so I could root for Vick except when PHI played us.
Ron Mexico was pretty exiting.
Vick for as much as a legend as he is, as a qb was pretty mixed. He had a Cannon of an arm but wasn't all that accurate even for the era he was in, never even coming close to a 60% completion percentage during Atlanta, and only doing so once his whole career, that 2010 year with Philly. He made up for it a lot with his freakish athleticism and speed, in an era of big slow linebackers that made him a nightmare for defenses. That also came with him getting injured quite often, missing games a lot or playing banged up. He's arguably more backed up as a Madden legend than he was on the field
great vid!!!
The fact that Santana ran a 4.31 and that was the fastest in the combine back then is wild compared to the complete blur that was the wr class this yr
He's the most athletic quarter back and the fastest with a strong arm and he should be in the HOF.
He was the most athletic at drowning dogs.
@@tonygarza7685 🤡!
you have to win something to be in the hof, vick won nothing.
unpopular opinion, Mike Vick had the highest ceiling for GOAT potential at QB ever.. From a physical standpoint literally the most lethal dude ive ever seen it was all mental prep and discipline with him and when he finally starting composing himself sheeeeeesh
My favorite moment was that bomb to desean. Shit looked effortless
this a old post but the 1 vs washington on MNF? that was insane
That MNF comeback against the Giants was insane,@@damidami02 .
Singlehandedly made me start paying more attention to that team (I was already long since a Vick fan).

We all make mistakes.. some may be worse than others , but when we learn from those mistakes that’s how you progress. He progressed .
He nailed live dogs to trees with a nail gun and laughed about it.Who cares if he could throw a ball?I can throw a ball
Yeah fuck him
Can you nail dogs to trees tho? Didn't think so 😑
He should’ve did that to your dog so we could’ve recorded it and laughed
I lived an hour from Indy, during the Manning era.. but it was Vick who first got me watching the NFL in the early 2000s.
Honestly I’d say Vick is the most skilled QB ever. He had a crazy strong arm with beautiful accuracy and I mean he was the fastest QB ever at the time
He wasn’t that accurate.
True that
Vick was crazy
Vick was on a whole nother level; jus imagine if he didn't miss the 07-08 season; he would've had even more stats to add to his greatness. 🙌
Best qb of all time can run and throw
hahahahaha😭😭😭😭
yeah but throwing is miles more important then running... and you know. aaron rodgers, tom brady, joe montana, payton manning, drew brees, alot of others are better if you look at any stat that dosent involve running

I thought the most amazing part of Vick's game was his elusiveness in the pocket. the only player better at avoiding contact that I've ever seen was Barry Sanders. As for Vick's weakness, I think he lacked touch on his passing. This shone through in his short and mid-range game where it often looked like he might scorch his receivers hands off. To be fair, Marino and Elway had issues with that early in their careers as well, but I think the maybe adjusted more quickly? /2cents
I chatted with him about the BLM movement on IG recently. He was extremely nice and a total gentleman❣️ And still one of my favorite players ever. I wonder if he will ever make it to Canton..
I don’t think he will but I wish
He beat dogs
He deserves it. After all that work he put in and his numbers dnt lie.. he changed the game.
@@major1388 he beat dogs dummies get straight
@@dawhooyt9877 and ray lewis was involved with a murder. Vick served time. Not saying its right but he could've easily just packed it in after that and went to a of crime or something not good. A lot of people don't try after they been given a second chance the y sit arpiund blaming the system or their environment and say they are who they are but Vick did a full 180. Not everyone is perfect in canton or other hall of fames.
Played against Vick 1 year jv and 3 years varsity. My team is in the clip at the start. Vick was the fastest player in pads period. He could threw the length of the field like it was nothing. Even though Ronald Curry won all the awards that senior year, I knew Vick would be a better pro.
I loved Vick in college. He was a big letdown to me the way things went down. Now, I dont expect much from any athletes
It's sad to see all these talented players who suffered off the field issues. Who knows what could of been if he never went to prison , coming back and playing that good the sky was the ceiling for how much he could of improved.
Zimmerman still walking
@@JaySantanaofficial huh?
Can't say I agree that this video has a very balanced representation of Vick's career here. Dogfighting stuff aside completely, you completely glossed over many key statistics about his career in favor of a focus on gross total yards and TD counts. What about the fact that in his 7 years that he started more than 10 games, he threw double digits worth of interception in 5 of those. He also fumbled more than 10 times in 5 of those 7 years. This led to his most productive years you cited here being plagued with nearly a 1 to 1 TD to turnover ratio. There is alot more to talk about here than was in my opinion.
And his completion percentage was very sub par by nfl standards
I was gonna post something like this. This is a real rose-colored glasses look at this guy. He was no doubt the most electrifying runner as a QB probably ever, but his passing credentials outside of that one out-of-nowhere Philly season were always subpar.
The best he ever did on a season was 3,300 yards, in a time when the league leader was doing 4,500+. And in that lauded 2010 comeback campaign he finished 20th in the league. The two good years with the Eagles were the only times he broke 3,000. Highly over-rated guy who should have been running a single wing or wing-T or something.
When he got that 89 yard run against a team. INSANE!
Mike Vick was MJ without the rings with the falcons. Could've been the greatest if not for that off the field issue.
I agree
it's a shame he never had weapons till he went to philly...
@@ezekwu I know right
Brett favre and michael vick might be the most naturally talented QBs we have ever seen
Vick was the best drip qb ever
He is most definitely a what could of been...Imagine if he had his head on straight and obsessively worked on accuracy and having a supercomputer mind of instinctive plays...Imagine
Man what a shame he had to back up these lesser QBs after the dog fighting scandal. Vick was far and away better than these bozos until the end of his career. Seemed like he didn't get a fair shake, even after he paid his debt like a man.
Yup ..
I THINK HE WAS THE BOZO, HE WAS TERRIBLE MOST NIGHTS
One of the most fluid motions

I can’t lie. I fucking love Vick. Dopest qb ever
Idk what parents this guy had but damn that voice is good

Vick is like the Iverson of the NFL, a freak athlete, who was iconic and majorly influential over the next few generations of players that would follow them. Both also embroiled in controversy as well, very polarizing figures.
Iverson was controversial for wearing baggy clothes and gold chains. Vick was controversial for torturing dogs. Bit different.
