LANDOVER, Md. – This is unprecedented, really – a thought too preposterous for even a movie. How can Michael Vick(notes) walk from prison back into the NFL and become the best player in the league two years after wondering if he would ever play again?
He is the MVP right now, the one who can take the Philadelphia Eagles to heights they are probably not otherwise gifted enough to achieve. Philip Rivers(notes) might be having a fantastic season in San Diego, but there has been nothing like what Vick is doing in Philadelphia. And never has a quarterback been as brilliant as Vick was on Monday, where almost every pass he threw was perfect, where he ran through tackles and plunged into the end zone and where he finished with 413 total yards and six touchdowns.

Vick always had a stong arm and could always make plays with his feet, but it took a stint in jail to improve his mechanics. The Eagles have fixed the only flaw in his game and now there is no stopping the man who stopped himself a few years ago. If he can stay healthy and continue to use his much improved mechanics then there will be an MVP award waiting for him at the end of the season.
