Instead of talking about each of the NFL games this week we are going to talk about the headline news for week 3, and that is no other than Michael Vick. Yesterday marked the first day of Michael Vick’s comeback where he was officially eligible to play football again. Vick’s numbers yesterday wont impress anybody (he was 0-2 passing with 1 rush for 7 yards) however it’s the big picture that Eagles fans and other NFL fans are looking for.” I think he did ok for his first game back, I mean two years in prison away from football what do you expect?” said Ade Carter an Eagles fan from Philadelphia. Most people feel the same way. “I think he did well for the first time back, if anybody thinks different I wouldn’t understand why, since he had a long layoff” said Ashley Lach’e from Baltimore. Journalist and NFL analyst were all covering Vick’s first game and critiqued his every move. For the most part everything surrounding Vick’s first performance was optimistic. A lot of fans feel the same way. “You cant expect to see the old Michael Vick so soon its going to take awhile maybe the whole year. I don’t know why some people are expecting so much so soon” said Robert Taylor of California. A lot agree including Vick and his coaches, always telling the media to give his progress time. “I took a couple of years off from football before in high school, and when I came back my senior year I felt far behind and I never recovered the whole year, it just seemed like the whole year I was behind. I can only image how Vick feels and he’s in the NFL” said Keshawn Merritt of Florida.
People are willing to give Vick time to process after his two year lay off, and he’s earned it. “Were pulling for your Vick” added Carter. He’s not alone most fans want to see Vick succeed in his second chance. Will see and we’ll keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best.
