Not sure if this is a Frank or Albin call, but it needs to stop. It's borderline embarrassing that we keep doing this to Vick. It doesn't build any consistency and can't be good for moral or the locker room. Amateur move.

I thought it was clear why they made the change. Vick seemed lost, and was losing confidence. The move gave him time to regroup, and he played better when he returned. I actually thought they should have started him in the second half, but I would have made the initial move at about the same time they did.

With some players it frustrates them if you pull them for a few series, and disrupts their morale. With others it gives them time to reflect and regroup. Vick clearly seems like the latter type to me.

In any case, the QB coach is Isphording, not Frank, and not Albin. It would be him making the call of who is in.

I thought it was the right move - Vick played like a George Bailey from "It's a Wonderful Life" after being given second chance. I, for one, was inspired by his performance - as it appeared were his teammates. that doesn't happen without the switch. That's why they are paid "the big bucks". Bravo, coaches!

Whether you believe it to be the right thing or the wrong thing to do, the fact is that Vick was a different QB when he came back in. It worked.
