NFL  > New England Patriots  > Michael Vick Linked to Patriots

I wish I were kidding about this one. Unfortunately, I am not. Peter King has New England listed as one of only a handful of teams that would be interested in signing Michael Vick.

Peter, hopefully will add the Washington Redskins to the list after Mr. Vick.

I wish one of Vicks dogs would meet up with peter king in a dark alley and put the football world out of our misery.

Can't see the Pats being the team that rolls the dice. Even if they have taken chances on guys in the past, I just can't see Kraft willing to take that one on.

I'd be curious what Pats fans were saying "before" the Randy Moss trade.

Hummm now thats interesting? Stupid but interesting .....

IF THE PATS BRING HIM IN ILL BE OUT THE WITH 180 GUYS AND GALS FROM PETA

Get real Vick the "SICK" Killer in not welcome in New England.

May 21, 2009  04:33 PM ET

Keep Vick the "Sick" dog killa out of New England where we treat dogs like family not as trash to be murdered electrocuted and drowned. Maybe the inlaws! Only josshin!

Sweet the Pats could use him as a Wideout / Halfback. He could even start if Brady got injured.

This is an example of a lousy writer getting desperate for some attention:Fabricate the most ridiculous story you can and put it out there... negative attention is better than no attention at all...King is nuts. Peter King is as smart as a MONKEY!

I agree with Epoch1. Peter King is an awful columinst. SI might want to hire a blind monkey to put a better story together.

If you read the article King doesnt say the Pats WOULD be interested, as you suggest, but rather that in his opinion they MIGHT take a chance based on their history with Dillon and Moss...... But even he says in his own article he thinks it unlikely because of the Krafts, so it seems much ado over nothing...... But as a Pats fan I say no Vick. He was always overrated in my opinion anyways with his below 55% accuracy........ shoulda been a WR :)

Use him as a running back/quarterback/slot receiver...with brady and Maroney....bam! Video game status! Could make for some sick plays.

Vick is one of the best running quarterbacks of all time but one of the worst quarterbacks ever to throw the ball. He also is not a very good animal lover, just in case no one noticed.

bring VICK to DALLAS

May 25, 2009  11:52 AM ET

if vick does join tht team he might do good but screw it all up and go to jail again

If the Pats (or any other team) think Vick can get them to the Super Bowl, they are going to take him. There are many felons and people of questionable morals in the NFL, so chastise Vick? This is a business and owners are going to do what is best for the business. At the budget rates Vick will take, he seems worth the hassle.

Dear OP, I'm not visiting your site ever. This sort of advertising with a couple lines straight from a publication do not encourage me to change my view. They make me think you're a no talent hack who just fills their site with ads to get a little bank.
