Mark Brunell, Chris Simms Rumored Replacements For Michael Vick
READ MORE:
NFL
If there's one thing we've learned about Bobby Petrino, it's that he's incredibly loyal.

Within days after taking the Atlanta Falcons job, Petrino signed former Louisville Cardinal Chris Redman. Now he's strongly considering two below average quarterbacks to fill Michael Vick's void. Why? Only explanation could be his close ties to both.

First, there's Mark Brunell. Who on earth would want Bunny right now? Naturally Petrino, who worked closely with Mark back when he was an effective quarterback with the Jaguars. That was a long time ago. Don't do it Bobby.

The second quarterback of interest is Chris Simms. Why? Well Bobby has a very close relationship with the Simms family, recently recruiting Chris' younger brother Matt to Louisville.

There's nothing wrong with being this loyal ... unless of course it makes your football team worse. Certainly Bobby Petrino can do better than these two, right? Help him out in the comments.

Actually, Brunell isn't that bad, and would probably be a step up from Harrington.

I'd take that if my team needed a QB.

Now would have been a good time to sign someone like David Carr (except of course they can't)

It is unfortunate to Joey, I think with the right talent around him, he can have success.  But he doesn't have that group in Atlanta either.  An average line, their RB is going to miss camp, no one of any worth at receiver.  He'll probably struggle (as any QB would in this situation) and eventually be out of the league.

I don't think this is anything more than a rumor, from the looks of things, Atlanta is all set to go with Harrington.  I know I didn't catch a lot of Miami games last season, the few I did catch Harrington didn't look all that bad at starter.
