When was the last time Vick threw an interception?

[underpants]

Almost four years have passed since Vick's desperation heave to Falcons teammate Roddy White near midfield of the Georgia Dome was picked off by Carolina Panthers defensive back Shaun Williams as time expired in Carolina's 10-3 win Dec. 24, 2006.

Vick, reminded of that by a reporter this week, seemed stunned by the amount of time that has since passed. He was talking on his cell phone when reminded, and he put the caller on hold and stared back at the reporter.

1. How many of those four years were spent in jail and under suspension

by the NFL?

Three years or so, right?

Not to step on your thread Underpants, but...

:shrug:

2. I doubt he was thinking about the interception he threw while he was incarcerated.

Just sayin'

[Auggie]

3. Agree... maybe he was thinking of penetrating an end zone

[madinmaryland]

4. IBTL!!!

:yoiks:

[KamaAina]

9. He's never been really big on hooking up with his tight end

:evilgrin:

5. Details Details

I heard this stat a few days ago and thought it was interesting. Yes you can't throw interceptions in prison... so there is that

6. Sorry Underpants...

I love you because you're one of my favorite oldie but goldies here on DU...

BUT--- fuck Vick.

[underpants]

7. Well sorry I mentioned his name

I thought it was an interesting stat

Yikes.

8. Interesting, yeah, but Vick is still scum...

He has his apologists in GD, but you're not gonna find many here.

[qazplm]

10. he's a flawed human being

he paid his dues and now he gets a second chance, and what he does with that second chance will determine whether he is "scum" or whether he has redeemed himself.

I believe in the possibility of rehabilitation, and I believe that people can change, if I didn't, well, I'd probably be a republican.

[flvegan]

11. Paid his dues?

Tell the dogs he tortured that. I'm sure they'd "agree" with you.

Dog fighters, rapists, abusers...give them a pass because they can put on a uniform and play a game for millions of dollars to entertain us.

Vick wouldn't know rehabilitation if it ran him over in the street.

[joeybee12]

13. Absolutely...even if Vick does change, do these apologists realize

how deeply disturbed he is? He's not simply flawed, he's psychotic.

12. Rehabilitation And Acceptance Are Not The Same Thing

I believe in his right to resume his career. I don't have to root for him, though.

14. You must have me confused with someone who cares.

Bernie Kosar set the NFL record with 308 consecutive passes without an interception, a streak that was broken in 1991 by Eagles safety Ben Smith in the same game he later suffered a devastating season-ending knee injury.

Bart Starr (294) and Jeff George (279) have the next two-longest streaks in NFL history. The last quarterback to reach 200 straight passes without an interception was Kyle Orton, who while with the Bears in 2008 threw 205 passes in a row without getting picked off.

So basically, Vick is being mentioned in the same breath as... Bernie Kosar, Kyle Orton, and Jeff Freakin' George. Whoopee twang. Starr is the only one of those QBs who matters.
