Who do you guys think is the better QB? I personally think Michael Vick is the single most over rated player in the league, but he is fast and can run so ill give him that. I think McNabb is alot smarter, better passer and decision maker, and is almost as elusive as Vick is (but doesnt have the pure speed that Vick has).
 
I'll take McNabb. Sure Vick is more exciting, but McNabb's gotten it done for years now. I would argue that he would succeed (maybe to a greater degree) with the Falcons' personnel.

I remember McNabb avoiding so many tackles last year, many of which I wondered how the hell he managed to escape. He's slippery, and a damn good QB.

My top 3 QBs are Big Ben, Peyton, and Brady (ick, scUM). I think McNabb is a close 4th, though.

I'll second the vote for Favre. :biggrin:


If I'm watching a game, I'd prefer to see Vick (duh). If I were putting together a team, McNabb has to be the choice. Taking his team to the NFC finals every year... guy's a winner, no matter what Rush and TO say.

Given the choice between those two I would take McNabb, but realize that I think that McNabb is one of the top 3 QB's in the league. I think yall are being a little harsh on Vick. All he has done is take a shitty falcons team and make them a playoff team. The guy flat out wins games. Call it my bias towards running qbs, but Vick makes his team better. If i was starting a team right now the only qbs that I take over vick are Culpepper, McNabb, Manning and Brady.
Vick is top 5 in my book.

Vick gets a lot of hype because of the spectacular plays he makes with his legs, plays no other quarterback in the league can make, not to mention a rocket for an arm. His stats are mediocre at best and I don't think he's a particularly good fit for the west coast offense but like High Lonesome pointed out, without Vick the Falcons are average. With him they made it to the NFC championship game. He certainly doesn't belong among the elite in the NFL today(Manning, Culpepper, Brady, etc.) but his highlight reels are second to none.

It has got to be Vick. Did you see when he went down two years ago. The Falcons sucked. He is like an extra runner in the backfield, it makes the game that much easier on the offense.

His rookie year he lead ATL to the playoffs and he beat none other than Brett Farve on his home turf.

Also McNabb has some more experience, and he has not been able to get over the top. I think this is the year that Vick Matures and takes the Falcons to the super bowl, with him and Jenkins as a great tandem.

I know this is a close call but if I had to take one of the two to start a franchise I am taking Vick.
