Rhymes With Moron
"The things he does amaze me every day," Falcons coach Jim Mora said. "He's getting better and better everyday. He's a special player, and you can see him getting more and more confident with what we're doing."
Mora took over for Reeves and quickly made an offensive hire he believed he needed to win in coordinator Greg Knapp. That meant Vick would be learning a new offense, the West Coast with some varying principles to take advantage of his ability to get outside the pocket.
It is a timing offense, meant to get the ball in a rhythm. It's an offense that made Joe Montana, Steve Young and Brett Favre great. But there are questions whether it's an offense for Vick.
