Actually in college there were quite a few times where i was thinking run run and vince would just wait and end up completing a pass.

Vince is also MUCH more accurate on short and intermediate routes. You can say what you want about Vince in college but his completion percentage for his career was 65% and while its down a good bit in the pros, it will rise. Also their running styles are completely opposite. Vince has ALOT more power and is such a long strider. Vick is quicker on cuts. They both run high 4.4s though.

The biggest difference between them though is that vince has so many intangibles. You can say what you want about him but the guy is just a winner...
i agree with almost everything you said here, but for the record vick clocks in the 40 at 4.23, and VY clocked in the low 4.5's. vy is a special special player. vick is just another spare.
