Michael Vick

Well, this may bring up a lot of controversies and maybe even some bad memories throughout the Atlanta Falcons fans.

Michael Vick is the best playmaker of his generation, he was an icon during his time with the Falcons. Other players have made the Hall of Fame mostly off of their legacies on the game, despite maybe not having Canton-worthy stats.

Michael Vick should make it just because of his impact on the game. Quarterbacks have become a bigger part of the running game ever since Michael Vick wore red and black. He was an icon during his early years and even his late years. Many people became Falcons fans just because they loved watching Vick so much.

Now obviously with Vick, there is a huge elephant in the room.

What he did was disgusting and disgraceful, he himself knows that as much as anyone. He paid for what he did, and he has done everything he can to deserve peoples’ forgiveness. This should not go against him when it comes to making it to Canton.

He only recently became eligible to make the Hall of Fame, and he seemingly has gotten no steam. Hopefully, people will continue to realize that he has changed into an upstanding citizen and has paid for what he did.

Hopefully, in the coming years his impact on the game alone will make him a member of Canton, he has inspired many young athletes, like Lamar Jackson, to become the type of playmaker at the quarterback position like he was.

Next. Do not underestimate Younghoe Koo’s value. dark
