What I don't want: 1.) A guy tied to a particular 'System' or 'Type' of team. We need a coach that can, as part of an organization, take the best talent available and make a competitive football team with it regardless of whether it fits the mold he was last successful in. 2.)

Someone else in another thread talked about 'Wanny Ball'. I think that describes us pretty well over the last

Vick's personal issues aside, lets remember this has been ONE good most of a season. He's always been up and down. He's fresh after being 'away' for a while and came back in great shape and focused. Let's see if it lasts with the grind and all the distractions back around him.
