PTS Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I was looking forward to seeing #7 in person. Hopefully he plays so when we beat them they can't use his absence as an excuse. Vick Questionable for Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vick Questionable for Sunday 446518[/snapback] I've seen the Bills make too many subs look good over the years. I wouldn't count this a win until it is in the books.

Pete Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 His backup- Matt Schaub- is a great QB that has always done well when he played. I have watched Vick the past two weeks and he is a horrible passer. Horrible. He misses wide open guys by 10 yards. Sure he has a cannon but he cannot throw accurate. There is a reason all those #1 picks spent by Atlanta at WR are busts. Atlanta will be a far superior passing team with Schaub back there. They are build for the west coast offense, Michael Vick is not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His QB rating over the past two years: 41.4 1 TD/ 4 INT Completion %: 46.5 NFL.com player page I think I'd like our chances better with Schaub back there.

Pete Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Didn't Shaub get in a bit of trouble with the law last year? 446803[/snapback] Not that I am aware of. He seems like the squeaky clean type. Many of us here wanted the Bills to draft him a few years back and there was much discussion about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scribo Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Falcons backup quarterback Matt Schaub (QB) Atl was arrested (last November I believe) in connection with the attack of a man, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. I'm working on a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drnykterstein Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I wanted us to draft shaub, instead of losman. what was he, a 3rd round pick? we could have gotten him, no problems. I think he could be good, if given the proper chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scribo Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Didn't Shaub get in a bit of trouble with the law last year? 446803[/snapback] You were right, Cincy. Charlottesville [Va.] police Col. T.J. Longo, reading from a statement, said a 19-year-old man claimed Schaub and two other men fought with him outside a restaurant around 1 a.m. Schaub was released on his recognizance after appearing before a magistrate judge.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Who really cares? Vick is hype. Their offense is all about the running game. Stop the run, you beat the Falcons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Fischer Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I'd rather have an 85% Vick than a 100% Schaub. Schaub is pretty good and may be a better QB than Vick. Also, you know what you get with Vick while Schaub is a big question mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gantrules Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Vick will be out there. He's going to be going against the third worst rushing D in the league and, after tonight, the best against the pass in terms of total yardage. All he'll have to do is run and occassionally toss the ball to Crumpler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
