vick WILL play better with better receivers and an OL..guaranteed..
And so would Charlie Frye.
Every quarterback would benefit with better receivers and better offensive lines, not just Michael Vick.
And I don't think Vick's decreasing production this past few years is due to the fact that he has less weapons than he had before, rather teams are starting to find out how to stop Vick. Vick is one dimensional.. that is, he runs and runs, and when he passes, just squeeze him into the backfield with spies everywhere. If Vick could learn how to play the position, then this all would be a different story.

anyone see that route that jenkins scored on in the game on sunday? that wasn't even in the playcalling..jenkins wasn't even a 3rd option..he was to be used as a decoy, but vick talked with jenkins in the huddle and told him to take that route and to score, and no one knew where teh ball was going except the two of them..and he was wide open, caught it, and scored..and you know whats incredibly stupid? knapps playcalling, and how VICK IS NOT ALLOWED TO AUDIBLE AT THE LINE AT ALL..if he knows that a designed run play is going to get stuffed, he has no freedom to audible and change the play becuase the coahces think he isn't smart enough to handle it and vick has just let the run play out..all he's allowed to do is change direction of run plays from the line..pathetic. get a better caoch with more ocnfidence, better wrs, better ol, and a real wrs coach (jerry rice, mathis, anyone who did not play in the nfl as an OFFENSIVE LINEMAN.)
Oh, were you in the huddle? I didn't know you spoke with Vick when he told Jenkins to run a different route. Hey, can you give us a day's notice on when Vick will make another audible in the huddle?
I don't know Vick well enough to talk about whether or not he can audible, but I will say that there is probably a reason to why he cannot audible. One of which, may be because he has trouble reading the field.
You are quick to blame everybody but Vick. Granted, I think Atlanta stinks because, as a whole, they're a mediocre team, but Vick is as big of a part as anybody else.

Dez White, Peerless, Roddy White, and Michael Jenkins all walked into atlanta knowing how to cathc a ball..in his rookie season, jenkins caught every single ball that ws thrown to him, and roddy was not nearly as terrible as he is now...peerless was a mistake to givve him number 1 money for being a number 2 receiver, but he wasn't terrible either..and dez white also caught every ball his way, but fatman george stewart man totally ruined them..
So.. what was that useless rambling about? Was that a quick overview of every receiver Vick has played with?
Like I said before.. Vick is as big of a part to blame as anybody else on the team, and the reason why everyone only talks about Vick is because he is the quarterback.. and like the coach, the quarterback gets the blame when the team loses (it is part of the job). The receivers may not be great, but great players play great regardless of who is around them, and Michael Vick has not been playing great.
