Some critics are saying Philadelphia quarterback Michael Vick has reverted to the run-first mindset he employed early in his career.

PHILADELPHIA — Michael Vick is showing less patience in the pocket, committing more turnovers and making fewer long completions.

Is he regressing?

Critics say Vick has reverted to his old form in Atlanta, where he was a run-first quarterback who created far more big plays with his legs than his arm.

That’s not necessarily accurate, however.

Vick and the rest of the Philadelphia Eagles have struggled in 7Z\x of the last eight quarters — excluding the meaningless season-ending loss to Dallas in which nearly all the starters sat.

So, there’s plenty of blame to share. The Eagles (10-6) will have to solve those problems quickly to have a chance against Green Bay (10-6) in a wild-card playoff game at Lincoln Financial Field Sunday.

“I think it’s important starting with me that we’re all aware of it and it’s a team effort,” coach Andy Reid said Wednesday. “It’s an offensive effort to make sure that everybody’s on the same page and we’re rolling there.”

Vick has come a long way on and off the field since his days with the Falcons. He had his best season this year, leading the Eagles to the NFC East title and earning his fourth trip to the Pro Bowl.

Vick set career highs in yards passing (3,018), touchdowns passing (21), touchdowns rushing (9), completion percentage (62.6) and passer rating (100.2). He was 8-3 as a starter, 8-2 in games he finished.

But the last game — a shocking 24-14 loss to lowly Minnesota Dec. 28 — was a tough one to accept because it cost the Eagles a chance at a first-round bye.

Vick had a difficult time against a fierce defense. The Vikings blitzed relentlessly and disguised it well. They sent cornerback Antoine Winfield after Vick often and he came up with a big play that changed the momentum of the game. Winfield sacked Vick, stripped the ball and returned it for a touchdown that made it 7-7 late in the first half.

Overall, Vick was sacked six times and threw an interception to go with the costly fumble. Critics say he had problems recognizing the blitz and adjusting.

A careful look at the game film shows that it wasn’t all Vick’s fault. There were instances when Vick made the proper read and knew the blitz was coming, but had nowhere to throw because his receivers didn’t react quickly enough.
