Steelers quarterback Michael Vick threw an incomplete pass intended for Antonio Brown on Pittsburgh’s last offensive play, a fourth-and-1 in overtime. After the Ravens kicked the game-winning field goal on the subsequent possession, Vick had a hard time getting over the pass he missed.
“That last pass will haunt me for a long time,” Vick said. “Antonio had a step.”
Vick has been in the NFL a long time, but he said the loss was among the most painful of his career.
“Probably one of the toughest losses of my career,” Vick said.
Vick showed off some of his old mobility, gaining 33 yards rushing, but he also failed in an attempt to run for a first down on fourth-and-2, and he was sacked four times. He averaged less than five yards a pass, gaining 124 yards through the air while completing 19 of 26 passes. Overall, it was the kind of game teams typically expect to get from a backup quarterback. Which is why the Steelers hope Ben Roethlisberger gets healthy as soon as possible.
