Mike Vick Preseason Debut and Dec. 6th

So for those of you who saw the much-hyped preseason debut of MV7 last night, did he manage to strike just a little bit of fear into your hearts around the impending Dec. 6th showdown?

Now don't get me wrong. I'm 99% sure that Matt Ryan is the better QB (we'll never see Vick reach his true potential) and I'm also convinced this is a game we should be able to take at home to make a statement about our standing in the NFC.

But I can't help but have nightmares about MV7 running rampant in the Wildcat formation, putting his new team over the top against his old one. And by the way, how fitting would that be when the Falcons have been nothing but supportive of him over the years, the ungrateful bastard. But I digress.....

Bottom line is, we HAVE to win this game. A loss would only stir up all of the knuckleheads who refuse to acknowledge that we have moved on from the Vick era and that the Matty Ice era promises that we'll be in the Super Bowl picture for years to come.

Thoughts?
