Michael Vick - Chiefs QB Coaching Intern
Mike Vick working as coaching intern with Chiefs
In June, Mike Vick said he wanted to one day coach in the NFL. Now one of his former coaches is providing him a baby step toward that goal. Vick is spending training camp as an intern with Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs. Vick spent four seasons with Reid and the Philadelphia Eagles, from 2009-2012, after the quarterback was released from prison following his role in running a dog-fighting ring. One of the most gifted athletes in NFL history, Vick said in June he believes he could bring a different perspective to coaching. "I think my heart is really into teaching, you know, the game of football," Vick told ESPN's Adam Schefter at the time. "I feel like I've learned so much from so many great coaches over the years. You know, I don't want to bottle up a lot of knowledge, and [I] really can't relay the messages that I want to relay to a high school kid because ... you don't have to dumb it down, but you can't be as complex. And I get that. "So [at the] collegiate level or professional level, you can express ideas. You can go into detail. You know you can coach hard, and that's what I want to do." |

I always was under the impression the offense with Pat would look much more like the days when Vick was running it opposed to how it is current day with Alex. Plenty more jet screens and playactions going deep. I'm here for it.

Oh no , per KCCHIEFS.com :
As Vick’s desire was to work with young quarterbacks, he’ll obviously have that opportunity this summer with the Chiefs’ first-round pick, Patrick Mahomes, who much like Vick during his playing days, put up video-game like numbers in college. Mahomes is absorbing everything Vick tells him like a sponge. “He’s giving us tips that he learned when he was with Reid and the Eagles, talking about the drops and how you want to time them up,” Mahomes explained of what Vick has gone over after just one day of camp. “I mean, he had one of the best seasons in NFL history in this offense, so you just listen to everything he says.” |

It's not like Vick is there to teach PMII to play like he did. He's there to carry out the coaches training/coaching program. If any of you think AR is just going to turn him loose with PMII and not supervise it you're smoking crack. |

Breaking down film, making reads, working in the pocket. the things that Mahomes needs to work on are all things that Vick only has a remedial understanding. |

Mahomes will learn more from Kafka than Vick.

Vick is only around for three weeks. Part of a diversified training program.
