Vick Still Not Testing Normal

POSTED: Thursday, November 29, 2012, 10:00 AM

Michael Vick had high hopes for the imPACT concussion test he took Wednesday, but when the results came in, Vick still had not reached his normal baseline, the Eagles said.

This stalls Vick's attempt to return to the practice field. It's unclear when he will take the test again. Vick also failed to test normally on Monday. Eagles head athletic trainer Rick Burkholder is expected to update reporters on Vick and LeSean McCoy Friday.

    Sure, he failed the test. Just as I predicted. A convenient excuse for Reid not to have to admit that Vick was a mistake from the beginning. They must really think we're stupid to believe anything that comes out of that front office.

    Hope he recovers fully and continues to keep his life on a positive track. That being said he's not my idea of the future for this franchise. Many more important decisions are to be made this off-season. The most important decision is the matter of who chooses the next head coach. HIREJAWSFIRST is a facebook page where you can show your support for hiring Ron Jaworski as VP of Football Operations. He is qualified to rebuild this franchise. Please Mr. Lurie, HIRE JAWS FIRST!

    If Jaws did take the job he would also need to have his brain tested.

    Im a huge Vick fan and supporter. Mike should take the rest of the year off and consider life after football. He has a family and needs to be there for them. There is no shame choosing your family over this game. Foles will be OK (if he runs)but he's not the future. I agree with bentlip...Mr. Laurie, HIRE JAWS!!!!

    YOU HEADLINE WRITERS JUST CAN'T RESIST CAN YOU. YOU ARE JUST BEGGING FOR A COMMENT SUCH AS: "WHEN HAS HIS BRAIN EVER TESTED AS NORMAL?"

    I'd "fail" my concussion test too if it meant I had to play behind this offensive line. My answer to every question would be the same: "Where am I?"

    I have a feeling he wont pass it again till after this dreadful season he helped create is over. Quitter...always was. Poor Reid decided this was the guy to give the keys to this team to.....schmuck.

    Yo, the testing results report, "Vick still had not reached his normal baseline" which is to walk and chew gum at the same time.

    At this point, Vick should just carry a clipboard on the sidelines and try to help for the rest of this train-wreck season.

    And I agree- hire Jaws as Football VP, and then let him run with it...

    He will not pass the test for the rest of the year whether he is healthy or not. Reid is tryiing to save his job by having wonderboy Nick Foles finsih out the rest of the year. If the kid looks shows glimpses of greatness then Reid may buy himself another yea because Lurie is looking for any reason NOT to fire his buddy Reid

    The test was "How do you do a presnap read of a defense?"

    Of course he didn't test normal. Anybody that throws dogs to the ground until their backs are broken, IS NOT NORMAL!!!

    Wow what a surprise....and Jacksons xrays were negative and next day multiple fractures..are you kidding me...its the way to save a little face for Reid so they can use the massive and often imagined injury bug to explain away the season...I for one am disappointed that Vick wont play again this year..I for one was looking forward to him getting tossed to the ground...tortured...kicked..beat up...laughed at....just liked he did to defenseless animals...this animal cant get hurt enough for me

    the conVick experiment was a bust from the Get-Go, only the lapdogs like panpizza and CYO,charmaine-tyrone-grownman-zero,rendell etc etc bought the conVick garbage,let's move on from this carwreck.....wolf.

    So they tried to measure his brain activity, and found a lump of coal?
