description

Given the opportunity to play hero after coming into the game in relief of a teammate, Michael Vick used Dec. 30, 2001 to confirm that come-from-behind win attempts are certainly easier when you simply can’t be caught from behind. Equipped with what football’s video gamers call “99 speed,” Atlanta’s soon-to-be-superstar used all of it on a must-have 4th & 15, leaving one draped-over-his-shoulder defender floored before reversing field, jetting his way into a chain-moving 23-yard pickup. Multiple goal line stands by the postseason-bound Miami Dolphins resulted in a Falcons’ 21-14 loss, but in creating one of many unforgettable moments, Vick dazzled with 214 passing yards (on 11-of-20) and a touchdown, alongside five carries for 63 yards.
