Mike
Vick can dodge would be
defenders, spin them 180
degrees and take off
downfield while
adjusting his helmet in
a single motion. His
electrifying, gravity
defying moves are so
incredible to watch that
they conjured one word
of appropriate
description:
breathtaking. With feet
quick as Barry Sanders
and the throwing arm as
strong and accurate as
Dan Marino, Vick has
been endorsed as a new
breed of quarterback.
Clocking a 4.1 (40) he
is considered the
fastest to ever play the
position. Because of
these attributes and his
ability to escape tight
situations some sports
writers have dubbed him
Whodinni...Book
