Why wouldn't I bring up Vick? I'm wishing them all success too but no reason to be extra dramatic about it.
You have a point about the coaching and systems not being built to help a "dual threat" QB in those days but still this is not new territory
We've been here before. Now they just gotta play and and they gotta win

Michael Vick was the No. 1 pick of the 2001 Draft. By 2003, there were seven black men starting at QB, three finished with QB ratings in the top 10 and McNair shared MVP honors with Peyton Manning. The next year, McNabb, Vick and Minnesota's Daunte Culpepper were elected as the three NFC quarterbacks for the Pro Bowl; and Vick and McNabb met in the NFC Championship. In the lead up to the game, Vick said: "It shows how far we've come, how far this league has come. So, this game does mean a lot to me. Like Donovan said, it's a big step for all of us."
