After reaching the NFC Championship Game in Coach Jim Mora’s first season the Falcons took a step backwards last season as Michael Vick continued to struggle with the West Coast offense.

Coming into this season rumors swirled that Vick and Offensive Coordinator Greg Knapp had a rocky relationship at best. For their part, Mora and Knapp have toned down the offense and added more of what makes Vick so effective. Boot-legs, run-outs and QB draws will be more affluent in the game plan. Whether it translates onto the field remains to be seen.
