I mean lets be real this wouldnt even be a thread if Vick didnt have some type of influence. And it's not like we're not gonna discount (triple negative!) the fact that you see athletic QBs on every level wear the number 7. There may not be any tangible evidence that shows Vick affected how athletic QBs are drafted and evaluated in todays NFL but to say he has zero influence would just be wrong

Hey, just something to think about, how is it this guy always comes into some money? The only NFL player to sign two 100 million dollar contracts, get big endorsements, goes into bankrupcy in jail and gets out of it in two years, and still gets 5 mil contracts at age 35 coming off the bench. This dude stays getting money tho, I am actually amazed happy curious and confused at him at the same time

What does his brush do that every other brush doesn't?
I've had full waves since I was in 5th grade... And always noticed the people who fiend over products that will give waves to them are usually the people who don't have them or the dudes trying too hard the wrong way and failing.
A brush is a brush, must be because he's Vick.

I guess Stillin's point about casual fans was true and this thread is proof, but nonetheless stats aside you can't discredit this mans impact on others.
It's evident by the respect he gets from his peers. Players from the opposing team were coming up to him for autographs after games when he was in Philly.
If you've even been to the Georgia Dome when Vick was in town, the love this dude gets is unreal, Matty Ice wishes he could get that kind of love from fans.
To me he's the most polarizing football player since Bo Jackson, I'd put his star power over Emmit, Barry, Deion and Randy.

Bruh that's customary. You see that all the time, players exchanging jerseys, signing them, etc. It's a show of respect.
And you smoking something special if you think his star power transcends Barry, Deion & Randy Moss.
I'll give you Emmitt Smith.

Bruh name me one prominent QB who wears #7 in the NFL other than Roethlisberger.....
Who we know damn well does not do it because of Vick.
Colin Kaepernick?
Oh yeah, I'm sure MV7 played a huge role in his decision making.The tall tales and reaches in this thread.
Yeah prolly a ton of HS players, but I legit can't think of one black college QB who has worn 7 in the recent past.

I'm not even saying it accomplishment wise but mike Vicks impact on the young inner city kids in his time was ai like. Dude had everybody trying out for our football team in hs trynna play qb. Hell our qb who eventually got signed by the lions for a season swore he was son. I remember this dude went around making a killing selling these shirts he made wit Vick juking a defender and said vicktimized on the bottom. Dont sit here and act like dudes ain't wanna be Vick when we were young and lost.

Dudes obviously have some animosity towards vick if they think career achievements = influence
Ask any black kid growing up in the early 2000s who there fav football player was

So now you're changing your argument from "Jordan of black QB in terms of influence" and you "can't deny his influence on black players" and "there would be no Kaepernick, Cam, RG3 without him"
to
he was the most popular amongst black youth.
Oh okay b, strong statement change.
nobody was ever denying his popularity, but rather his impact and influence on the QBs of today.

again ya'll making a different argument for the original statement.
which just doesn't change the erroneous nature of said statement.
stick to the script, ya'll can't even keep the subject matter straight. lmfao.

IDC about son achievements or accomplishments I'm not a ride or die fan. Hell at the time I had just gotten into the NFL for real but it was 2 players u knew of that was mike Vick and randy moss. When everybody in our neighborhood get a game of hoops going we was crossing over like ai when we brought the football out the qb was running like Vick. Point is son had crazy influence in the early 2000s had me buying NFL street just to run with atl

Cats in here like "he had a terrible completion percentage... So he wasn't influential"
Y'all ****** tripping.
You couldn't wait to see what Vick did on Sundays. Had people holding their breath every time he dropped back to pass...
Mobile quarterbacks in college didnt take off until the early 2000s
You had a few doing it from a triple option standpoint...
But not like it is now.
Vick had nothing to do with that, though.
All coincidence.
Vick = Shawm Kemp

This whole post.
Who in here is denying he wasn't athletic? He had jaw-dropping plays RUNNING the ball, but that's about it. What people are saying is that he was overrated and not very good as a QB.
A lot of you guys keep trying to move the goal posts (no pun) with this vick discussion. Mobile QBs in college didn't take off until Vick changed the landscape of the game! Riiiiiiight

We in here talking about how good of a quarterback Mike Vick is and yall talking bout "influence"
"Influence"....on other players. Wtf is "influence"?
What "influence" on the players on the team he played?
I'm an Eagles fan, miss me with this ****....

super cool story bruh....
but the discussion being had is based on Off Pow Clow's initial statements.
Awfully low bar you're setting to compare him with MJ.
The skill level just wasn't there, no contemporary really goes out of their way to model themselves after Vick nor does any front office nor HC look for a Vick-like player.
Tons of players had apparel deals as well.
