  • Vick/Reid Already Focused on Packers

    Vick studied Capers blitzes this week rather than practice for Cowboys.

    On Sunday, Eagles backup-turned-starter-turned-backup Kevin Kolb started against the Cowboys.

    Michael Vick

    On Sunday, Eagles backup-turned-starter-turned-backup Kevin Kolb will get the start against the Cowboys.

    Next weekend, Mike Vick is expected to start the game. The question is whether he’ll finish it.

    Sal Paolantonio of ESPN told Jon Kincade of ESPN Radio on Sunday that coach Andy Reid could bench Vick for Kolb, if Vick struggles in the wild-card game.

    Paolantonio said that the ESPN NFL Matchup crew noticed that Vick isn’t recognizing blitzes, and that Reid twice let Vick know about it during Tuesday night’s loss to the Vikings.

    With the Packers a win away from nailing down the No. 6 seed, which would send them back to Philly in the wild-card round, Paolantonio explained that Vick didn’t practice in the days preceding the regular-season finale against the Cowboys because he was putting in extra time studying the 3-4 defense orchestrated by Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers.

    In Week One, the Packers went to Philly and beat the Eagles. In the first half of the game, a hit from Green Bay linebacker Clay Matthews gave Kolb the concussion that opened the door for Vick to earn the starting job. After the loss, Vick said that the Eagles would have won the game, if Vick had played all four quarters.

    Whether he gets the chance to play all four quarters in the wild-card round remains to be seen.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Always found vick to be kinda stu-stu-stupid in the brain. I doubt an extra week of study is gonna do shit for him. In the loss to the vikings he looked like the old vick who would get hurt running because the passing game would break down for him. He took alot of shots and was starting to break. Pack will finish him IMO.

          Vick is going to be a nightmare if he avoids the blitzes.

            Crazy to see someone go from superstar to prison to backup to MVP candidate back to having a possibility of being benched in a playoff game so quick. Welcome to the Michael Vick experience.

              Vick scares me only because I still have nightmares of hardy Nickerson chasing Vick all over lambast however many years back.
              "I would love to have a guy that always gets the key hit, a pitcher that always makes his best pitch and a manager that can always make the right decision. The problem is getting him to put down his beer and come out of the stands and do those things." - Danny Murraugh

                    Lets not forget this guy was the first QB to beat the Packers the in playoffs at lambeau. Hes improved tremendously this year under Andy Reid who is one of the best QB coaches in the league. Your going to single out the one game against the Vikings? The guy will finish 2nd in the MVP award and is having a hell of a year. Going to be a great QB matchup with Rodgers vs Vick.

                        He has an excellent thigh, he will be fine.

                        After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

                              I remember back in the day how it wasn't really a racist comment....just speaking what is fact, and reading it again today I still feel that way. Someone at cbs wanted him gone and this was what it took.

This goes back all the way to the Civil War when during the slave trading, the owner — the slave owner would breed his big black to his big woman so that he could have a big black kid.
