Hypothetical Mullings from our '99 - '00 Champ Season

Now that this sub-par (craptacular) season has concluded, I often frequent over to YouTube to reflect on better seasons and times of yore. While I understand this makes some folks feel worse, for others (myself included) tend to feel a twinge better. One of the games I've perused multiple times during Dec & Jan was our magical season of '99 - '00 when Vick led us to our 1st ever National Championship appearance and to the brink of eternal glory. BEHOLD:

I have zero doubts that most of us have mused over what could have been, had there been a few differing circumstances & scenarios. Well, that's what this thread is about. Here are a few "what-if" scenarios. What if:

-Warrick & Janikowski were prohibited from playing in the entire game (2 notes: Coles, Warrick's roommate was already prohibited, & while Anquan Boldin was on the team, he was originally drafted as a QB & switched over to WR. I don't believe he had world-beater skills at that point)?
-Vick scored the games 1st TD instead of that meshuganen fumble?
-Kibble's punt wasn't blocked?
-Stith was only out for 2 qtrs (2nd & 3rd) but came back at 80-85%?
-Graham kicked the FG instead of attempting that ill-advised fake?
-Kibble punted instead of the Sorensen attempted fake?

Would we have won? I'd like to think so. What say you, TKP??
