    There's been a theory making the rounds in the media that the New England Patriots could be a perfect destination for former Falcons quarterback Mike Vick. We're now hearing that there could be something to the chatter, primarily since it's appearing more and more likely that Vick won't have many/any options to compete for the every-down quarterback job in 2009. Of course, this would require coach Bill Belichick to be willing to sign Vick to a one-year deal.

    Not a good fit, and why? If anything we would sign a vet for a backup QB, who actually could play the position.

    He doesn't at all fit the Pats system. This sounds like a bunch of horsecrap.

    I will second rikvanloo's statement...taking on some "troubled" players is one thing, but the Kraft's are in pretty good with Goodell, and Vick lied to his faceand pretty much tried to play him as a fool. Not to mention that this guy isn't just a loud mouth or egotistical he's a flat out criminal. The Patriots don't want or need him or his baggage....FREAK MIKE VICK!!!!

    Actually, a team like the Patriots is exactly what Vick needs. I've been saying it all along that the team he goes to has to have "structure." The Patriots would be a great fit for him to get his act together and get back in line. He's not going to start anywhere this season unless there is an injury and then it's still not a guarantee. New England would be a great fit for him. Now Belichick needs to decide if Vick is a good fit for the Pats...

    Wait.

    Woah..

    Hold on. Pause.

    Vick's a loudmouth, boastful piece of trash? Since when? So people don't make mistakes? They're all perfect right? Because you know, he had ZERO legal trouble before this whole dogfighting thing, but now, oh now he's the worst piece of crap to ever grace the earth?

    Give me a gotdamned break. He deserves as much of a chance as anyone, whether it's as a back up or whatever else.

    Pacman got in trouble how many times?

    Cincinnati still has a franchise correct?

    Wife beaters are in the NFL.

    I'm sure there are some players in the NFL (more than likely from southern cities) who have participated or seen a dog fight. All the sudden this man gets caught up in something (which is cruel, not condoning it), and he's the worst man to ever grace the Earth. He deserves a second chance, because first off as a man, he's served his debt to society.

    Second off, what reason does Goodell have to keep him suspended? He's shown remorse for what he did, he's kept himself out of the spotlight since his return home. What else does he need to do?

    He donates, it's passed off as publicity. He apologizes, it passes for BS. What else does he have to do?

    Excuse me if I sound pissed, it's because I am.

    He couldn't crack our lineup at wide receiver. We are loaded.

    Truth.

    That, and I don't think he'll crack any lineup at WR.
