Michael Vick is entering his tenth season in the NFL. In Vick’s 2011 season, he played 13 games with 253 completions for 3,303 yards out of 423 attempts (59.8%). He averaged 7.81 yards per completion and his longest completion being 73 yards. He had 14 interceptions and 3 fumbles.
In basic terms: Vick ranks in the middle of all NFL quarterbacks.
We all remember how Vince Young called the 2011 Eagles team the "Dream Team." Vick did something similar by saying we would be able to build a "dynasty."
"When I look at our football team and what we have on paper, I think about when I was growing up and the great San Francisco 49er teams, the great Green Bay Packer teams, and the great Dallas Cowboy teams, how they just positioned themselves to compete and be one of the best teams out there. I think we have a chance to be that. I think we have a chance to develop a dynasty."
Fans shouldn't be concerned with this. He's talking about a "dynasty" that he probably won't be a part of. Vick is 32, and if he keeps having injury-plagued seasons as he usually does, I don't believe he will be a part of this. His offensive line needs to step it up and protect him if he wants to be part of this "dynasty".
With his clothing line coming out, it appears Vick is trying to step his game up. Let's see if "Mental Toughness" can come through this season and lead him to the best season he's ever had.
