He's still young and needs to learn how to handle the ball. Those things come with experience. We'll see how Pennington does without a top notch reciever now that Coles is gone.

Kind of like that old fart Rich Gannon in the Super Bowl.
MICHAEL VICK HAS PLAYED ONE YEAR......SINGLE HANDIDLY CARRYING ATLANTA 16 tds 8 int career 7.4 ydrs per carry and over 1000 yds rushing,,,, 3 years from now he will be a legend....
he is 23 years old for god sake....he`s played 1 yr in the nfl!
Everyone looks bad against TB. Vick had to play them twice last year as well as Baltimore and Pittsburgh. Those 4 games hurt his stats. Once he learns more he'll be much better.
hey raiders. You interested in doing a free fantasy league? Grab some other RX guys, broadcast the season here. Might be an interesting challenge for 12 guys or so...
Two more problems i see with Vick. He either holds the ball to long waiting for a reciever to come open thus taking a sack. Or he'll take off as soon as he feels pressure when he didn't need too. Once he learns proper pocket patience, he will become the perfect weapon. I think he'll always be more of a weapon than QB but he will improve enough to overcome his shortcomings.
A small and quick defense causes him problems. Of course he's not behind the best offensive line either. They get on him so fast, there is nowhere to go. He needs Duckett to step it up and take pressure off him to do everything.
