The o-line was fine last year, Vick still sucked.

you're right it's Vick throwing balls into triple coverage, being oblivious to the fact linebackers drop into coverage, and giving up the football sometimes while barely even being touched because he holds it out like a loaf of bread while diving headfirst because he somehow hasn't 'learned' to slide in a decade plus since getting drafted.

He is terrible this season, hasn't put a single fully good game together & I don't care about isn't 'just his fault'.

He's the supposed 'franchise quarterback' & he's a wildly inconsistent mess with some phenomenal highlights which is pretty much what he's been for a lot of his career.

You still don't understand that Vick wasn't in the Top 10 in attempts-per-game last year & still sucked not to mention that the o-line issues have effected the running game more than the passing game.

The passing game primarily sucks because Vick holds the ball too long, makes terrible decisions & is the worst ball-security snap-taker in the league.

Not to mention they've had matchup advantages in the secondary against a couple of these teams plus Vick's turnovers have resulted in being down early in 5 out of 6 games.

Reid will likely be gone, partly because he gave this dude an extension off 8 games, the bottom line is Vick HAS to be gone.

You can't pay this guy 17 million to be this shitty, no matter who's coaching & pretending he's suddenly going to change is a pipe dream.

No coach is gonna want this dude around eating 30 percent of your cap to not even be able to turn it over less than three times a game.
