Grits and Shins Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 True, but allowing him to change only the direction of the run plays as Knapp did is hardly allowing the offense any freedom to adjust. If he walks up to the line with a run play to the right and the D is showing 8 men committed to the run then changing it to the left will do very little. He was never allowed to audible a pass from a run or vice versa. I know it's just one example but towards the end of the season Vick began calling audibles without permission. In the Washington game, Vick audibled the TD pass to Jenkins. After that game came his stupid quote "sometimes you have to overcome coaching." Knapp never even allowed them to run no-huddle very often unless it was a 2 minute drill or trailing late. Vick has always looked more comfortable in a no-huddle. Cincy ran a nice no-huddle so hopefully Jackson brings some of that to ATL. As an aside, it's really no coincidence that some of the best conventional QBs in the league use the no-huddle on a regular basis. I can certainly understand the reluctance in allowing a QB that can't read defenses or pass the ball to audible to a pass play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgcoach Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I think the question is, why wasn't he allowed to audible? Just throwing that out there, discuss amongst yourselves. Personally, I think they found out early he's a freaking idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Irish Doggy Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I think the question is, why wasn't he allowed to audible? Because he's the most exciting player in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine why I would ever want to frequent a forum dedicated soley to hanging off Vick's sac. I'm not surprise you hang out there though.

See ... perfect ... all you Vick apologists make a regular habit of deflecting away from Vick with meaningless drivel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
