32 burning questions for each NFL team
Atlanta Falcons

Q: The Michael Vick Era is officially over, right?

A: Matt Ryan was the big winner in April's draft, despite not going first overall — signing for the most money ($72 milion), and getting an absurd $34 million in guaranteed cheddar. The money is a lot — especially for a team with holes at pretty much all 22 positions on the field. But the bigger question is this: What happens two years from now, when Ryan, one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league, is manning a 5-11 team and Michael Vick is playing for Dallas, at the league minimum, lighting it up for a division leader? Talk about sleepless nights for Falcons fans.

Dallas Cowboys


Q:So many personalities. Is the Cowboys' locker room doomed?

A: I'm currently ripping through an advanced copy of Jeff Pearlman's latest book Boys Will Be Boys — a tell-all on the Jimmy Johnson-era Cowboys — and if those personalities could all mesh and win three Super Bowl titles, this team surely can too. Those guys make this group look like a bunch of choir boys. In truth, winning breeds happiness. And as long as T.O.'s getting the ball, the Cowboys are winning and the fans are happy with the product — this motley crew will be just fine.

This will be interesting.

I'm sure Michael Irvin isn't too excited about having to hear all this again.

In an interview with the author ......

TR: Can you give us any details on the upcoming Dallas Cowboys book?

JP: Lots of football and hookers. Not in that order. :)

Mike Vick will not ever be playing for the Cowboys.

Just like Adam he has to be reinstated first and I serious doubt Vick will.

The sad part is that while most of this is already known, it will be treated as fresh news and reported on ESPN like it was the biggest sports news of the decade.

Just because Dallas is winning doesn't mean we will be okay.

MAKE NO MISTAKE!

It's SuperBowl or BUST.

Why not, lol. If he still has talent and is in shape? This is a low risk, high reward Jerry type move, and by the time this happens Pacman is model citizen, Tank is model citizen, TO is media darling.

Goodell will be begging us to take Vick in. :D

A Lucy Waahh! Actually Dallas is the most likely place for Vick from the standpoint of a franchise being able to help the guy and having the tools in place. But I don't see Vick wanting to come here. He will want to go to a place where he will be the number two but still have a great chance to unseat the number one QB. I'd say Chicago and Miami are good places except they don't have the mentality or tools.

Not sure where Vick will be both welcomed and feel like he has a chance to get back on top.

I find it hard to believe Vick will be reinstated, ever harder to believe that he will ever be in the kind of shape again that will make him still play at the level he was, which was to be honest quite sucky!

Your mostly right except for "Its SuperBowl or Bust" pending no serious injuries.

Exactly right. If Adam Jones still hasn't been reinstated for something he was accused of but never convicted, what makes people think a convicted felon currently serving prison time will get reinstated?

I guess if we need a RB at that time Vick would be alright. As A QB he was not great to begin with but as a runner he was one of the best. Having said that I highly doubt Vick will be a Cowboy or anything else in the NFL.

Chicago maybe, but I see no way in heck that Bill Parcells will touch Vick.
