Toxikk Veteran Posted September 4, 2004 Veteran Share Posted September 4, 2004 YEAAAH. Skins DOMINATED. Vick looked like a chump. Atlanta looks baaaad... http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/recap?gameId=240903028 LANDOVER, Md. (AP) -- Mark Brunell opened the game with a touchdown drive and was done for the night. Michael Vick opened with an interception and never did produce a play for positive yardage.Brunell and the Washington Redskins tuned up for the regular season Friday night with a 27-0 thumping of the Atlanta Falcons, who just might have pulled off the most useless road trip of the preseason. Brunell, looking for some momentum to take into the regular season after winning the starting job over Patrick Ramsey, went 4-for-6 for 51 yards on a 78-yard opening drive aided by a questionable third-down defensive holding penalty. i LOVED this part...How humiliating was it? The Falcons even managed to get a player injured by the Redskins kicker. Receiver Woody Dantzler left the game with a sprained right ankle after getting tackled by John Hall on a kickoff in the first half. and this Vick's final numbers: 0-for-3 with one interception and one fumble. He finished the preseason 5-for-12 for 35 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. GO SKINS!

Steffan Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I think it was 24-0 before the first half was over. It also makes you wonder why Vick didn't play more during the preseason.

Steffan Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 uhh, didn't he get hurt last pre-season? the whole "madden curse" thingy.. yes he did, but he should have thrown more then 12 passes. he's not on the cover of the madden game this year. I understand the fact that the falcons don't want him to be hurt again during the preseason, but he's has a new offense to learn and that can take some time to learn.

BroChaos Veteran Posted September 4, 2004 Veteran Share Posted September 4, 2004 i've been saying this for years now! vick has no talent, and will amount to nothing in the nfl. he sucks!! i was laughing my ass off watching him get drilled. there's no room for running qb's in the nfl, not with the talent of the LBs and secondary, and the massive size of the linemen. plus vick is a dick anyways, he proclaimed himself the best college football player, watches "how good he looks" on the jumbotron whenever he makes a play. i wonder if he was watching the jumbotron during this game :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/213092-nfl-falcons-grounded-by-redskins/#findComment-584498981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steffan Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 of course he's going to suck this year. the falcons are trying to play the west coast offense without a running game.
