Michael Vick will not start against the 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers chances of getting their first win just got easier.  According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Michael Vick will not be playing Sunday night due to a rib cartilage injury.

Vick was hurt in Sunday's game on a quarterback sneak towards the end-zone.  He was tackled just short and was immediately removed from the game.  There was some speculation that it was not as serious as it looked but the story is that at this point he has trouble breathing without feeling pain.

Kevin Kolb is expected to make the start which will be easier for the 49ers defense.  Kolb has been very unimpressive when he has played quarterback and unless Alex Smith blows it for the 49ers I would expect them to get their first win.
