When it comes to Madden NFL Football games, no player compares to Michael Vick in the early 2000s. Even six-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady agrees.
In a recent tweet by ESPN’s SportsCenter account, Brady, Vick, Peyton Manning and Patrick Mahomes were given as choices in a theoretical 4th-and-10 scenario late in a game.
While those of us that have played Madden for most of lives can admit the answer is easily Vick, Brady surprisingly tweeted his vote for the former Falcons dual-threat QB:
Even I have to go ’04 @MichaelVick…also, appreciate whoever decided to give me those biceps https://t.co/mL7GcLokuc

Vick’s speed was something the developers at EA Sports had never seen before. It led to an unfair advantage whenever somebody played as the Falcons, with his rare combination of arm strength and elusiveness virtually impossible to stop.
The man known by Madden players as the “Human Cheat Code” tweeted his appreciation.
That’s love @TomBrady aka the #Goat https://t.co/3pT507l0Zd
