It should be fun to watch. However, Defenses will put 8 and sometimes 9 in the Box....Get him out on strech plays and screens.....

translation: i think my qb needs to work on not being intercepted, so we'll run more to open up passing routes.

Geeeesh exactly what did Vick accomplish while he was qb? How many super bowl rings did we win while he was here? Did we win while I was asleep or something? I did not see everyone jumping ship when Vick lost his 1st freaking game. Atlanta is the most fair weather city I have ever seen. We all thought when Vick was drafted we were going to be unstoppable, I think we were stopped real quick b/c I do not think we won ****! This kid deserves a chance, he did OK in Miami, he had a 500 season, if he does that in the ATL I will be ok with the drama that we have had. Pre-season was not too shabby. BACK OFF and let the kid play a little.

i agree w/ America's Legend: screen and stretch plays would be a better way to utilize Norwood's skills.......now if Petrino will just mix up the play calling a little.......3 and out = 0-16.

I'm a Louisville resident who was born and raised in Atlanta, and so I am a fan of both the Cardinals and the Falcons. Give Petrino time (you won't have to give much). His offensive prowess is second to none.
And for the record, he secretly wanted a pocket-passer all along. That's all he's ever had. And this coming from a (former) Vick fan. As for mixing up play's... the man's playbook is twice as thick as the average NFL coaches.

MacaDamien U are an idiot. Give him a chance. We need receivers that can catch. We need a line that can protect a QB. I guess I am idiot b/c I see that as well. Harrington can not help that no one on the field can catch. They could not catch when Vick threw to them. As for our best chance to win ACTUALLY that was Schaub but you know we got rid of him for Vick and where is Vick now, oh yeah he is going to prison! Vick had how many seasons to WIN for us? They had one division championship in 2004.
Petrino DID want a pocket passer but VICK screwed that up now didn't he. I guess that is why opinions are lik **** holes and every body has one. Too bad we didn't take LaDainian Tomlinson instead of Vick, sorry but we could have been AWESOME.

Norwood is the future of the falcons back field. yea dunn is good, but not better than norwood. I say u start gettin' the ball to norwood at least 15-20 times and dunn at least 15-20, cause they dont have a line to protect the quaterback, plus they got rid of Schubb and lost Vick, this should be an intresting season for the falcons..

they need another backup qb, and they need protection for their qb, plus someone with hands or put velcro in our guys hands. not being able to catch is killing us.

Just to answer the above question... Vick won in Lambeau in the playoffs in 02 when everybody thought it was impossible.. He also had them one win from the Super Bowl so to say Vick didn't win is false

Ok so Vick won but we won with Chadler too...go figure! I am just tired of people saying Vick was the greates QB since sliced bread. We did not win the the whole enchilada while he was with us. NOR did we come close. So we won the division ONE TIME, if it was repetitive I could understand. I have my opinions just like everyone else.

Harrington has had recievers,running backs, good O lines and still you people keep giving him chances!! Cmon guys yall can jump on me all you want but deep down you know this guy is trash!!! Of course Norwood is gonna get more carries cause they dont want him to throw INT's!!!! Petrino was gonna maximize Vick's ablities!!! And you guy's are really funny with the "he has no recievers"arguement!! Vick had the same recievers but he just couldnt throw right?????? Thats what made Vick special people, was he made something outta nothing!!!! Harrington cant make the BIG PLAY!!!! And thats what the NFL is about the Big play!!
