InVickable

On Monday night, Philadelphia Eagles' starting quarterback Michael Vick had the best game of his career, and possibly the best single-game performance that the NFL has ever seen.

The Eagles took on NFC East rivals the Washing Redskins in a Monday Night Football showdown, which matched Vick up against the man who basically recruited him back into football, Donovan McNabb.

McNabb, who was ousted by Philly and replaced by Kevin Kolb and ultimately Michael Vick, got revenge on his former franchise in the two teams first meeting in October.  But on Monday night McNabb just had a ticket to the Michael Vick show like everyone else in attendance.

Vick was unstoppable, incredible, and though it might sound a bit cliche...Invinceable.

You could tell he was going to have a stellar game from the start.  How you may ask?  Well it could have been the glimmer in his visor that gave it away, or perhaps it was the 88-yard touchdown pass to Desean Jackson on the first play from scrimmage.  You be the judge.

Vick led the Eagles to touchdowns on every one of their possessions in the first quarter.  That's right I said the first quarter.  No one could believe what they were watching.  It was 28-0 Philadelphia in the first quarter.  But hey, teams have had some pretty phenomenal quarters before right?  Maybe it was just luck?  Nope.

First play in the second quarter Vick drops back to pass, looks right, and fires a bomb to Jeremy Maclin.  It's a 48-yard touchdown pass.  The Eagles are now up 35-0 with 3 quarters left to be played.  That's right Vick gets almost 3 more full quarters to pad his stats.

He finished the game with unthinkable statistics.  He completed 20 of 28 passes for 333 yards, 4 touchdowns, and no interceptions.  That's a passer rating of 150.7, can you say MVP?  It's hard to believe Vick put up those numbers passing isn't it?  He's supposed to be known for his running.  Well he did some of that too.  He racked up 80 yards on 8 carries, and added 2 more touchdowns on the ground. That's 6 touchdowns total in the game.  That's ridiculous...ridiculously awesome.  The kind of awesome that sets and breaks records.

With the performance, Vick became the first player in NFL history to have 300 plus passing yards, 50 plus rushing yards, 4 passing TD's, and 2 rushing TD's in a single game.  He also surpassed Steve Young (who just happened to be commentating this game) for second place on the All-time Quarterback Rushing Yards list.  He now trails only Randall Cunningham, who was considered the first "Ultimate Weapon" quarterback, and who ironically enough also played for the Philadelphia Eagles.  We definitely know who the "Ultimate Weapon" is now.

The NFL Hall of Fame requested Vick's jersey from him after the game, which will be put on display in Canton.  Talk about foreshadowing.  If Vick keeps up this level of play, he'll certainly join his jersey in the Hall one day.  He's got plenty of time left before that though, with plenty of records to break (along with defenders' ankles).

One things for sure though, it'll be hard for him to surpass the night he had against the Redskins. Then again, he is Michael Vick.  He makes the impossible possible.
