Vick & Big Ben Crazy Offensive Duel! (Steelers vs. Falcons 2006, Week 7) 

Vick’s drop back after snap with that lil’ bounce is legendary 🔥

Hines Ward went off in this game too. 171 yards and three TDs. He was still upset Atlanta passed on him in the draft despite him being a star at UGA

If Vick was accurate like he was in his first season as an Eagle for majority of his career he would have been unstoppable.

The dome was ROCKIN back then

One of the most underrated games in NFL history. Vick was the X factor

Never thought I'd see you guys upload a Steelers loss lmao

Man that Pittsburgh roster when Big Ben came in was crazy

Love that you have the HD copy, this was the last year of this Falcons squad. After the season Bobby Petrino was hired and Vick got arrested, leading to the team’s total collapse. It was a quick reboot though in 2008 as the Matt Ryan era kicked off

Vick is the most physically talented QB ever

I forgot how much I loved this Falcons team. Vick, Dunn, Jenkins, Crumpler, Peerless Price, Finneran, Keith Brooking, Patrick Kerney and Deangelo Hall before he became a useless diva.. Both teams extremely talented.. It's a shame to think about what Vick and this team could of been if he never got in trouble.

Before there was Lamar Jackson, there was Michael Vick.

Friendly reminder Vick wasn’t even trying during the Atlanta years, took Andy Reid to get him studying…..imagine if he did in Atlanta.

great game. never seen a kicker go down and a new one come in like that. Vick really toyed with a phenomenal defense. scary how good he was.

Been waiting for this game for 4 years, love both these teams and cannot wait

Saints/Bucs throwback options for Monday night 2002 Week 13 (SNF showdown between 9-2 and 7-4) 2008 Week 1 (Wildly entertaining battle between Brees and Garcia) 2012 Week 6 (Brees vs Josh Freeman, last minute drama)

vick had an absolute cannon for an arm

Ward, Holmes, Ced Wilson, Nate Washington.....some damn good WR room

I saw this game live in Pittsburgh. I remember being the only Falcon's fan in the middle of Steeler nation. What a game!!

Vick was playing out of his mind this game

Big Ben in his first 5 years was pretty similar to Josh Allen but without the power runs. Dude would either scramble for 20 seconds and throw a 50 yard td, or he would throw a goofy interception into triple coverage.

Mike Vick is a beast

Look at those throws by Big Ben. This is next level stuff.

A battle between my two favorite Steelers QB's lol

Thanks for the upload NFL Throwback! That was a very intense game between Big Ben and Vick.

this is so good love seeing my boy vick and then my steelers

Ben was nearly perfect that game…if only. Charlie did a great job considering the position

Vick arm strength was insane

*Michael Vick to Ben Roethlisberger:* "One day I'm going to be your back-up in Pittsburgh... but today, in Atlanta, you _my_ bitch."

Thanks for this upload!!!

I like the Falcons old uniforms a lot better

I Love This Video 📸 NFL Throwback 🏈 Great Job 👍 Keep Up The Good Work.

What a game❤

cbs with that hd. man vick was baller

If vick looked to pass first in his Atlanta days he wouldve been unstoppable.. That one year in philly he put it all together but god dam if he did that in Atl they wouldve had an unstoppable offense and SB rings to go along with that!! AND MOVE THE KICKOFF BACK WE NEED KICK RETURNS BACK IN THE GAME! THE MOST EXCITING PLAY IN FOOTBALL!

Back in the ATL days Michael Vick and Alge Crumpler we're creating chemistry in Atlanta together!!! Both Michael Vick and Alge Crumpler we're the best Quarterback-Tightend duo in the NFL!!! Before Michael Vick got into trouble with the law for financing a dog operation, Michael Vick was the in Atlanta and led the Atlanta Falcons to the playoffs in 2002 and 2004 and went to NFC championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles in 2004 and lost to Donnovan McNabb at Philadelphia before Michael Vick signed with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2009. Michael Vick was a versatile dual threat quarterback in the NFL though. Michael Vick also had three Pro Bowls with the Atlanta Falcons and one with the Philadelphia Eagles!!! Michael Vick was a god gifted athlete!!! I love Michael Vick!!! He was the best in the NFL!!! I always and forever will love Michael Vick!!! I 🖤 #7!!!

I wasn't watching football when this game was played, but I tell u my football emotions were all over the place while watching this 16 year old game! I woulda been yelling and storming off had it been live!

This is when my Altanta falcons were exciting to watch.

What a wild game

Mike Vick does what Mike Vick does!

This was my first Steelers game ever. Fun game but damn. Going tomorrow as well. 😅

I Def miss these Steelers teams.

Any raider games? Please? From 2007? Or 08?

Boy them Atlanta Falcons cheerleaders looked good in their boots!!!

2:44 Troy Polomalu was one of the most universally lovable football players ever born, regardless of team affiliation. I've never been big on the Steelers but how can you NOT cheer for the plays this guy made?

Man i wish the falcons where this good still

Anyone remember former ravens linebacker free agent bust with the Atlanta falcons ed Hartwell ?!? Ravens had alot of free agent busts on defense who left during those years except bart Scott for 2 years thats it

Ced Wilson was such a beast for the Steelers in his time there. There were many awesome, unsung 3rd WRs for the 00s and 10s Steelers, but he's probably my favorite. Antwaan Randle El, Nate Washington, Jerricho Cotchery, Manny Sanders, Martavis Bryant, god damn. That's not even including the guys who started there and became much more, like Mike Wallace, AB, and JuJu.

Epic

The 86 touchdown with his cleat coming off crazy crumpler was dogging the Steelers ! But why was Charlie batch going crazy

Michael Vick was blessed to play with Roddy white and Desean Jackson lesean McCoy and many more

That Falcons team was legit...

That boy michale had that dawg in him

The battle of the number 7s in week 7

i didn't appreciate Phil Simms on commentary.. until i heard Tony Romo commentate.. now i wish he was still commenting

This Falcons team was so much fun. Take special teams for example... 1 fake reverse on a kickoff, then an actual reverse on the next kickoff, then an onside kick! Don't really see stuff like that anymore

Killed ourselves with turnovers. Exciting game though. Been 16 years since I watched it. Thanks for the upload.

Bring back these falcon jerseys. The new ones look so bad.

this game will forever be known as the Hines Ward no shoe TD game - or at least it should be. I distinctly remember this play - he outran DeAngelo Hall, literally one of the fastest players in the league at the time (maybe THE fastest if the Pro Bowl skills challenges are to be considered) and with only one cleat on and a sock. His grit was unparalleled!

Club shay shay got yall posting Vick

That ref was "Mr. Excitement"

Michael. Vick. The. Best. Quarterback. In. Atlanta. Falcon. History

Falcons pass rush was nice

Mike Vicks arm was insane

What a game lol. I remember watching this in 9th grade. Vick had probably his best two career games at that point, this one and the one before it then went down for the legal issues I believe.

Damn I forgot about Roddy White

Well this game is why you should never trust the memory of a 5 year old. I actually went to this game with my parents (both big Steelers fans). For some reason I always thought Pittsburgh won this one. Looks like I was very wrong.

The officials had the fix in for this one lol.

Alge crumpler is under rated

Hope they first Pittsburgh special teams coach after this because man…

I love nfl

I think this game should've happened in 2007 because the NFL should've redid the interconference rotation like this: 2002,2006,2010,2014,2018,2022 AFC East vs NFC East (Patriots,Dolphins,Jets,Bills vs Eagles,Redskins,Giants,Cowboys) AFC North vs NFC West (Steelers,Ravens,Browns,Bengals vs Rams,49ers,Seahawks,Cardinals) AFC South vs NFC South (Titans,Colts,Jaguars,Texans vs Buccaneers,Saints,Falcons,Panthers) AFC West vs NFC North (Raiders,Broncos,Chiefs,Chargers vs Bears,Packers,Vikings,Lions) 2003,2007,2011,2015,2019,2023 AFC East vs NFC North (Jets,Patriots,Dolphins,Bills vs Packers,Vikings,Bears,Lions) AFC North vs NFC South (Steelers,Browns,Ravens,Bengals vs Buccaneers,Falcons,Saints,Panthers) AFC South vs NFC East (Titans,Colts,Jaguars,Texans vs Eagles,Giants,Redskins,Cowboys) AFC West vs NFC West (Raiders,Broncos,Chargers,Chiefs vs 49ers,Rams,Seahawks,Cardinals) 2004,2008,2012,2016,2020,2024 AFC East vs NFC South (Patriots,Dolphins,Bills,Jets vs Panthers,Saints,Buccaneers,Falcons) AFC North vs NFC North (Ravens,Bengals,Steelers,Browns vs Packers,Vikings,Bears,Lions) AFC South vs NFC West (Colts,Titans,Jaguars,Texans vs Rams,Seahawks,49ers,Cardinals) AFC West vs NFC East (Chiefs,Broncos,Raiders,Chargers vs Eagles,Cowboys,Redskins,Giants) 2005,2009,2013,2017,2021,2025 AFC East vs NFC West (Patriots,Jets,Bills,Dolphins vs Seahawks,Rams,Cardinals,49ers) AFC North vs NFC East (Steelers,Ravens,Bengals,Browns vs Eagles,Giants,Cowboys,Redskins) AFC South vs NFC North (Colts,Jaguars,Texans,Titans vs Packers,Vikings,Lions,Bears) AFC West vs NFC South (Chargers,Broncos,Chiefs,Raiders vs Falcons,Saints,Panthers,Buccaneers)

11:05 No flag in sight 😭 they'd throw like 5 nowadays

Loud as the crowd was i thought they was in Pittsburgh

Back when a FG won the game in its first possession

Listen to the crowd you’d think the Steelers were at home

I find it funny how at the end of his career, Vick would retire as a Steeler.

Bro Nate Washington how uu jump offside on a spike play

More like the Mike Vick vs Charlie Batch/Big Ben duel lol

14:06…37 yard laser strike

Growing up, I remember thinking Hines Ward sucked. I was born in 98 so I was 8 here. Didn’t know what football was, I just knew it made my dad REALLY happy, or REALLY mad. But it seemed like every time I watched Hines Ward, it was on a play where he dropped a pass. And I would see him get up, every time, and smile. Like it was hilarious. I didn’t know then just how good he really was. I miss watching that. I miss seeing players smile when they drop passes. Especially Hines.

The offensive design and personnel just wasn’t there for Vick in the prime of his career. Would have loved to see him in a modern west coast spread offense that operated off inside zone /zone read. When he went to Philly Vick was at the end of his prime . The mike Vick in Atlanta was just different.

Lol why does this game feel so floaty

This was interesting...........

Video Idea “Best Qb Of Every Season Sense 2000”

Always good to see the Steelers lose! 😈 Great game

Both QB's = convicts.

We forget Crumpler was a UNIT with soft hands.

But why does a penalty have a 10 second runoff

Hii

Battle of the criminals

I don't think Vick will ever make the Falcon's Ring of Honor after his lies and deceit of Arthur Blank, but Algee should make it. Roddy already has.

Why do you hate dogs?

The last time the birds beat the steelers

When big Ben Roethlisberger got hit no penalty and every ref last and present never call games down the middle,refs have to be fired

Dammm refs were shit back then too?! You'll call tripping on the steelers during a PR,but when Atlanta did the same thing 2 punts ago yall didn't throw nothing!🤦‍♂️😂

Jesus Loves

Big ben was horrible in 2006. 23 picks in 15 starts isn't good

Go niners

Why would they show that cheating game!!!

That throw and catch at 7:45 was absolutely fucking crazy. Has to be in my top 10.
