Michael Vick now has 333 yards rushing this year in 4 games, which is good for 5th in the enire league. His pace of 83.4 ypg puts him on pace for 1,334 yards on the season. Will he rush for over 1000 yards this season? I think so, and I have always thought that this is the way that Atlanta should have been using him all along. He will never be an efficient passer who drops back and goes through his progressions. He can be a devastating weapon, though, if he is used to augment the running game and take 3-4 shots deep while limiting his mistakes in the passing game. I love how they are using him. So, will this continue, and if so, what is the ceiling for his production? 1300? 1500? Something to talk about.

Originally posted by Jughead10They should have been doing this all the time. The coaches were stubborn and wanted to mold him into the WCO offense. Not happening. Correct me if I am wrong Falcons fans, but basically don't you have two offenses now. One for Vick and more of a traditional WCO for when Schaub ever has to come in.

Someone on ESPN.com made the argument that assuming the Falcons make the playoffs they are going to have troubles. I'd have to agree. Defenses with speed I think will be able to contain Vick and with their inability to pass they might not be able to dig themselves out of a hole. Just a thought. They advanced to the NFC Championship game in 2004 but all they had to do was beat a lousy 8-8 Rams team and then were trounced by the Eagles.
Nobody cares about your stupid fantasy team.
