I think they're really the same kind of player, which is probably why Reid drafted both of them in the first place. By same kind of player, I mean, both can catch the ball out of the backfield, can accelerate, change direction well, and they have a good vision for the field. Lewis is just more agile and I believe had a more impressive two years at Pittsburgh than McCoy.

Similar players yes, both coming from Pitt nevertheless but I wouldn't put Lewis over McCoy at all. I don't even think McCoy is close to reaching his peak.

McCoy is the perfect back for Reid's offense(speedy). Lewis hasn't proved to do what McCoy has done on sundays(not knowing how many opportunities were given)

Ahem! Like I said: The NFL figured him out. And he can't keep up his style of play for very long. He's not tough enough.

Vick is back to what he was his entire career in Atlanta: an AVERAGE QB. He's amazing in short stretches, but it doens't last.

Ahem he broke two ribs early in the game, Ahem DeSean Jackson did not play. Ahem his starting G Evan Mathis was out. Ahem yeah it's all Vick's fault.

That's exactly my point! He's too small to put up with the pouding his style of play incurrs. And I'm not just pointing to the loss to 'zona, he's been average (actually below average) just about all season.

Oh P.S. He already got paid, so it looks like the motivation is gone.

Technically that article should be called "Michael Vick played PATHETICALLY with two broken ribs."

Funny how all the Vick apologists whined all year about how horrendous the Eagles' OL is, and now PFF just selected both the Eagles' LT and LG as FIRST TEAM all-pro's. They also have a very talented 27-year-old rookie RG Danny Watkins.

Not saying PFF is infallible of course.

Why did I know you would again fail to remember/realize how many games those guards played this season? Jimminy crickets.
