The Philadelphia Eagles couldn't be more happy to get Michael Vick back on the field. Following being away for a month he went back to Sunday football leading the Philadelphia Eagles to a big win over the Colts. When Peyton Manning is on the other hand, it is no common game. Vick threw for 218 yards and also 1 td, and ran for 74 yards and also a score in the Eagles' 26-24 victory over the Indianapolis colts on Sunday. The Philadelphia Eagles (5-3) are 12-0 following a bye since Andy Reid became coach in 1999. They hadn't beaten Manning in three earlier tries. Whilst Philadelphia rested a week ago, the Colts (5-3) had to make a short transformation following beating Houston on Monday night. It surely looked the Philadelphia Eagles were the fresher team, especially early. The depleted Colts lost wide receiver Austin Collie to a concussion following a hard -- and illegal -- hit by Kurt Coleman compelled him to leave on a stretcher in the second quarter. Collie lay on the ground for many moments as the crowd fell silent. Eventually later, the announcement came he'd had movement and was alert. Philadelphia's DeSean Jackson had 109 yards receiving and also 1 td in his first game back following a horrible hit gave him a concussion on Oct. 17. Playing his first game since hurt rib cartilage compelled him out on Oct. 3, Vick picked up where he left off when he was National Football Conference offensive competitor of the month in September. He accomplished 17 of 29 passes, and scrambled for some crucial first downs. Manning threw for 294 yards, one TD and two picks. The 4-time Football MVP wasn't his regular self, misfiring on many passes. Indy competed devoid of cornerback Jerraud Powers, running backs Joseph Addai and Mike Hart, tight ends Dallas Clark and Brody Eldridge and wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez. Vick had explained he would play more warily, yet he did not shy away from hits on many of his scrambles. Collie got injured on the Colts' next drive. Unnecessary roughness was called on Quintin Mikell on the play yet should've been on Coleman considering he delivered the hit to Collie's helmet. The Philadelphia Eagles obtained a td on their beginning ownership for the 4th time in eight matches. McCoy broke loose for a 62-yard run on the first play from scrimmage. Vick tossed a 9-yard td pass to Jackson. The Philadelphia Eagles rapidly got the ball back when Manning badly overthrew his target and Samuel made an easy interception. Samuel returned it 33 yards to the Colts 9, but Philadelphia settled for a 22-yarder to make it 10-0. In spite of his earlier legal difficulties, it is beginning to seem like Michael Vick is the best quarterback in the Football. His return to the starting lineup earlier this week was a memorable one as he picked up right where he left off. He went up against to-time MVP Peyton Manning and turned out on top. Manning looked irregular at times and couldn't appear to connect with his receivers. Vick has been presented a second chance in the NFL, and he's surely making the greatest of it.
