VICK... SMASH!!!


The Hulk only wishes he was as awesome as Vick.
Oftentimes, you'll hear someone say a player played so well, he looked like he was in a video game. Against the Redskins on Monday Night Football, Michael Vick actually looked like he was in a video game. Set to easy. Using cheat codes.

Before the game, there was a minor skirmish between the two teams, instigated by Redskins safety LaRon Landry taunting DeSean Jackson. Fast forward to kick off, and if you got up to get nachos, you missed the first play from scrimmage by the Eagles. DeSean Jackson torched Landry for an 88 yard touchdown. In one effortless motion, Michael Vick launched a a missile 60 yards downfield, hitting DeSean Jackson perfectly in stride. Landry dove and fell on the play, while Jackson jogged backward into the endzone.

It was the first of many ridiculous displays put on by the Vick and the Eagles offense.

On the next possession, LeSean McCoy took a screen pass 27 yards to the give the Eagles first and goal at the 7 yard line. On the next play, Michael Vick dropped back, scanned the field, found no one open and took off. He juked out Lorenzo Alexander and made a mad dash toward the goal line, finally diving between two more defenders for the touchdown.

By the end of the first quarter, the Eagles were up 28-0. On the first play of the second quarter, Vick absolutely bombs it across the field for a 48 yard gain. On that play, Jeremy Maclin made an acrobatic touchdown catch falling backwards near the sideline. The Redskins challenged that he was out of bounds, but the call stood, bringing the to score 35-0. Let me repeat that: After the first play in the second quarter, the Eagles were winning 35-0.

Later in the game, Albert Haynesworth made Mike Jenkins look like a hard worker. Haynesworth got pancaked, and fell into a coma for over 7 seconds while Vick danced in the pocket. He patiently waited for Jason Avant to improvise and get open in the back of the end zone, where Vick drilled it in for yet another TD.

Vick and the Eagles weren't done there. When all was said and done, the Eagles won the game 59-28. Vick's final line? A ridiculous 20/28 passing for 333 yards, with 4 TDs. 8 rushes for 80 yards, and 2 TDs.
