I wouldn't be surprised if Maddox went back to Chicago, where he began his career. I'm not really worried about the Braves though, they have one of the best scouting programs in baseball, and, as usual, their farm system is stocked. That all being said, it has to be somewhat disconcerting that they've lost Millwood, Glavine and perhaps Maddox, all in 2 years.

Falcons need to can Dan Reeves(who I've never been a fan of). Vick or no Vick, that team still had enough talent to compete for the playoffs. If the Eagles could survive McNabb's absence last year, the Falcons should have been able to survive Vick's.
