Vick was instrumental in helping the Falcons end a seven game losing streak against the St. Louis Rams, leading the club to a 34-17 win in its home opener. He completed 14 of 19 attempts for 179 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions, finishing the game with a stellar 120.3 passer rating. Equally impressive on the ground, Vick rushed 12 times for 109 yards, averaging 9.1 yards per carry. His 20-yard run late in the second quarter helped set up a field goal, giving Atlanta a 17-7 halftime advantage. Vick’s 100-yard effort was the third of his career, as he improved his record at the Georgia Dome to 10-2.

In his fourth season from Virginia Tech, this is Vick’s second career Player of the Week Award.

Urlacher led a Bears defense that limited the vaunted offense of the Green Bay Packers to one touchdown, helping Chicago to a 21-10 win at Lambeau Field. The win, the first for head coach LOVIE SMITH, ended the Bears’ seven-game losing streak to the Packers. Urlacher finished with 14 tackles, helping perhaps make the key play of the game late in the second quarter. With the Bears leading 7-3, Green Bay faced a first-and-goal at the Chicago 2 with 2:00 minutes remaining. The Packers handed to AHMAN GREEN and Urlacher forced a fumble that teammate MIKE BROWN returned 95 yards for a touchdown, turning a potential halftime deficit into a 14-3 Bears advantage. Then late in the fourth quarter with Green Bay attempting to rally, Urlacher forced an intentional grounding call, pressuring Packers quarterback BRETT FAVRE on a fourth-and-eight from the Chicago 11, sealing the victory.

In his fifth season from New Mexico, this is Urlacher’s fourth Player of the Week Award and first since 2002 (Week 2).
