Facing constant pressure all game, Michael Vick was as contained as the Packers could have hoped for. Without a spark for most of the game, consistently killing themselves with penalties and watching young James Starks run all over their defense, the routinely high-flying Eagles found themselves in a predicament. David Akers, their future hall-of-fame kicker who misses less than a lunar eclipse occurs, missed two field goals that changed the dynamic of the game and Michael Vick through an interception in the end zone with :33 seconds left on the clock. As the Packers head to Atlanta to face the Falcons, the Eagles will watch from home and reminisce on the season it was.
