FLORHAM PARK, N.J. - Michael Vick expects to be ready for his second start with the New York Jets.The veteran quarterback insisted Monday he is fine after banging the back of his head and briefly leaving the Jets game at Kansas City on Sunday.I feel good, he said. After playing my first full game in a year and a half, I feel good.Vick was shaken up early in the fourth quarter of the Jets 24-10 loss when he was popped by Chiefs linebacker Josh Mauga after throwing an incomplete pass.Vicks head slammed into the turf and he was slow to get up. The 34-year-old quarterback was replaced by Matt Simms, but passed the NFLs concussion protocol before returning a few minutes later.No headaches, no nothing, Vick said.He and coach Rex Ryan said a lingering foot injury was more of an issue — but it shouldnt keep him from playing against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.He passed all those (concussion) tests to get back cleared, Ryan said. If anything, hes got a foot that keeps getting stepped on. I think thats the biggest concern right now.Vick, starting in place of Geno Smith, was 21 of 28 for 196 yards and a touchdown and committed no turnovers. It was his first regular-season start since last Oct. 27 against the Giants while he was with the Philadelphia Eagles.You really dont need confirmation when you believe in yourself and you trust your abilities, and you trust your preparation, he said.To be able to go out there and play efficiently is great for me. I still didnt play up to my standards because we didnt score as much as I knew we could have scored. We didnt put as many points on the board.But I believe in myself and I believe in what I can do, and I have been telling you that from Day 1.Smith, inactive with a sore right shoulder, is uncertain for Sunday against the Steelers. He threw before the game, but wasnt completely comfortable so the Jets sat him in favour of Simms.I hope hes fine, but well see as the week progresses, Ryan said. He was able to throw, all that type of stuff, for the most part. I know he feels better right now, so hopefully thats a good sign.___AP NFL websites: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Vikings Jerseys . - The Oakland Athletics say they are stopping negotiations to extend their lease at the Coliseum.
