* vs New Orleans Vick re-aggravated the knee injury he suffered during the Vikings game from week 4. Injury hindered his performance in the game but didn’t stop him from being perfect on a final drive of the 4th quarter to set up the game winning field goal. Something that the 58.6 passer rating doesn’t tell you.
** vs Jets Vick was still suffering from the same knee injury and it hindered his performance in this game. Two of Vick’s 2 interceptions came off of the hands of injured Alge Crumpler and the horrid 16.3 passer rating doesn’t factor in Vick’s 2 rushing TDs.
*** Basically Vick’s first bad not due to injury. Terrible day at the office as Chris Draft led the Panthers over a team that was owned by Vick in the past.
**** What can I say -12 degree temperature in a game where no offense looked good. The Falcons were done when Vick after going through his progressions came back to the left side of the field and made a beautiful pass to Michael Jenkins who was drilled inside the ten yard line before the ball popped up in the air and was called an interception. Vick’s other interception came courtesy of throwing into the wind on a play where he had no time to set his feet. As a result Roddy White was terribly under thrown and the ball was picked off. Summary? Neither INT the result of Vick’s inability to throw from the pocket. One was a perfect throw from the pocket with poise and the other was a collapsing pocket throw on the run that was caused by the elements.
***** Vick looked exceptionally well on the first drive before it stalled. Then the Falcons had poor execution the rest of the football game. Vick’s interception came courtesy of a desperation bomb when the Falcons were down several throws. Overall another bad game against the Panthers.
