Exert
On Thursday, Michael Vick pointed to the change in offensive line coaches in Philadelphia as the beginning of the end for the Eagles' offense. On Friday, a report suggested Vick has little desire to remain on the team in 2013.

The Philadelphia Inquirer reported via a "source familiar with Vick's thinking" that the quarterback would not be willing to renegotiate his contract in order to stay with the Eagles. He's due $15.5 million next season, and the Eagles are extremely unlikely to pay Vick that much even if they were interested in keeping him next year.

Vick wouldn't publicly comment on the possibility of renegotiating his contract, but his stance hardly is a surprise. Vick is headed for a big pay cut in 2013, but he can maximize his earning potential and options if he becomes a free agent. The Eagles owe Vick $3 million guaranteed on Feb. 6, so they won't be able to wait long to make a decision on him -- unless they paid the guarantee and tried to trade him.

If the Eagles do release him in early February, Vick essentially will own the free-agent market for weeks before other quarterbacks. No wonder he doesn't want to renegotiate.

I wouldn't re-structure if I were him either, especially considering the piss pour line we've asked him to play behind. He's suffered serious injuries mostly because of this crap line we have.

I wouldn't pay him $15 dollars.

Vick was majorly in debt a couple of years ago. So, I'm not surprised that he won't take a pay cut.  I can't see the Eagles keeping him and paying him more money. So, if he isn't willing to restructure, then I think it is obvious he is gone.

Thats a childs way of saying "I didnt want cookies anyway" He knew he was gone regardless of what he does or says. Young QB with years to develop > Old qb that is only going to get worse as he gets older.

This is a business oriented thread about Vick's contract.  Racist, bigot comments like "SEE YA!" Aren't on topic.

Vick's too dumb to read defenses but RG3 can. Figure that one out.

Just about every post of his I see involves him claiming some sort of racism. I'm assuming this one is sarcasm, because as soon as any negative comment about Vick pops up he'll be there claiming it's racist.

Even if we get Chip Kelly running a "Vick Friendly" offense, I still want him gone.

Any negetive comment regarding Vick is seen as a  racist remark  by the Vick fans. You're not being signaled out. Have never seen so many racist  accusations  ( toward other fans) as I've seen since Vick has been a member of this team. It was never that way with Cunningham or Donovan. I don't know what it is about the Vick fans. But they are seriously overly sensitive where he is concerned.

lol at the dog killer fanboy.

Vick is nothing but a gimmick QB. All the eagles did was help him pay off his legal bills in exchange for a couple ESPN highlights.

Good riddance to that creep.

He can take his bongs, his herpes and his grey goose back to Virginia and stay there forever.
