Well....I guess it was bound to happen....There is no doubt that the Bucs defense rattled Vick's cage early in the game. I have to tip my hat to the Bucs on both sides of the ball today....they played one hell of a game....and Johnson was just on fire.
I am a little pissed at the play calling for the Falcons this game. After the game Vick credited the Bucs defense with keeping him inside the pocket....but am I the only one that noticed that he only started from the shotgun position once during the WHOLE game?? This has been one of the keys to the Falcons wins all year.....why change what has been working??? The shotgun gives you two steps off the bat.....and for a running QG against the best Defense since the Iron Curtain why would you give up those two steps?? It may not have worked.....but it has been working for the last 8 weeks......and besides, why not try it when nothing else was working.....jeeez, like my old man use to tell me...."Son, you gotta dance wit da one what brung ya".
To answer the question of MVP....I think that Vick has what it takes to win the award...very soon....but I think he still has some things to work on before he will be as good as some people think he already is.......but do not fret....he is that good.....he just needs some experience and he is going to be TRULY dangerous.l
My vote for MVP is Priest Holmes, but he will never get it because KC is only one game over .500......if they could pull out a steady stream of wins then he could be seriously in the running.
