An “Oh No!” moment

That giant sucking sound you may have heard all the way from Flowery Branch was the chorus of gasps that followed the sight of Michael Vick being chopped at the knees by a fallen teammate.

The starting offense was working “hurry up” plays against the reserve defense at the time of the mishap. Reserve tight end Dwayne Blakley had fallen off his block and down to all fours as Vick was going through his progression of receivers. In an ugly instant, Vick rolled over Blakley and lay motionless on the ground for a five-count before rising gingerly to his feet.

The shake of Vick’s head smacked of momentary dejection. Drills have resumed with Matt Schaub taking the snaps.
