Vick isn't a weapon. I agree with 1 and 2. Maclin moves ahead of McCoy and when healthy Westbrook is easily 2,3. |

Gotta admit Westbrook is one of my favorite but don't know how much he has left in the tank especially after a concussion. To come back from a concussion and play at the top of your game is pretty difficult. Concussion especially a severe one can be season ending. Vick, if utilized correctly is indeed an extremely potent weapon. He has 4.2 speed. He can throw the ball 80yds in the air and he is extremely elusive. He could be our most potent weapon if utilized properly. Reid refused to let him throw the ball. |

Vick used to be a weapon. He isn't so much this season. Maybe next season, possibly. I think it should be mandatory that players have to sit atleast 2-4 weeks with a concussion. They give sprained ankles more time to heal than they do their head. How does that make sense? lol |

"when healthy Westbrook is" I think those days ended before last year, at a minimum. |

Pretty much. I know I never count on him. I'm hoping McCoy handles the full time duties from here on out and just let Westbrook make some plays with about 10-15 touches. Hopefully get the most out of him without him breaking in half at postseason time. Seperate question. Have you ever wondered why players rushed back after a concussion? Especially when they take greater caution with sprained ankles. There is something backwards about that. |

Apparently, when they are no symptoms from a concussion, you're good. So if two day in a guy says he has none... They do these baseline test nowadays, record your answers. Then they make you retake it. Concussions are so varying. I've seen guys just get sick, and guys who talk in babble. In actuality, but it was HS level, they were very over cautious with it. If you said you had one symptom, they pulled the kid and he couldn't back in. |

| Concussions are crazy. I read this article in the New York talker or whatever it's called. The long term effects on these players with concussions is insane. One example they used was Kyle Turley. Apparently he was just laid on the floor and went to sleep. That is completely messed up. |

I had one once, sleep was it. I was done, need sleepy. Out. But two days later, no effects whatsoever. No symptoms. Right back at it. College there was a rule, 3 of any kind within one year, they stop you from playing. Usually those were serious ones. |
