Quote:Vick was the better college player, better athlete, better arm


Not even a close comparison actually

Vick in two seasons. 22 games. 56.0 completion %. 23 TDs 11 INTs. 3rd in Heisman voting in one year 6th the other. QB rating 150.6.


Yards in two seasons. 1299 rushing. 3299 passing.


Manziel in two seasons. A Heisman winner once 5th in voting the other. 26 games. 68.9 completion % 63 TDs 22 INTs QB rating 164.1


Yards in two seasons. 2169 rushing. 7820 passing.


The game hasn't changed THAT much in 15 years. Vick had some help on that team. Stith had over 1100 yards that year and they had some playmakers on defense that Florida State took out of the game early. Vick didn't have anything close to Manziel's line, but when it came down to winning, Vick on his biggest stage dropped the ball when he should have scored to open a championship game. If you wanna argue Vick was a better college player, athlete and arm and that it isn't even close, I would question where this wisdom comes from.
