Sit ‘Em:  Micheal Vick – QB/Eagles (vs. New York Giants)

This is it folks, we’re finally to the point where Michael Vick’s once must-start status has worn off entirely and he’s more often a sit than a start. Vick used to do damage to defense’s with his legs, but now he devastates his owner’s fantasy lineups with his arm. Cam Newton, better known as Vick 2.0, was held to just nine fantasy points by the Giants last week and this week they’re likely salivating over the chance to face Vick and his erratic arm and pitiful accuracy. Beyond the comparisons, Vick has had sub-par performances against the Giants haven’t been noteworthy and that’s the red flag that corrected your fantasy team, because it was the last piece of evidence you needed to sit Vick this week and have a better team because of it.
