My Thoughts on Vince

Good post man and yeah I agree that pass to britt for the first was just crazy hopefully the good play by vince keeps up..

 

Honestly, call me a VY homer or whatever, but he's a lot more exciting to watch than KC (or most other quarterbacks for that matter). I had a lot of fun watching the game on Sunday.

 

My take on the whole situation is:

Vince didn't take being a QB in the NFL seriously after the 2007 season. Everything came naturally to him so he messed around in the off-season. He came back and got boo'd, then got hurt, benched and watched his team have success without him. On top of that (I think this is the biggest factor) he lost Steve McNair this offseason. Not only was Steve close to Vince, but Vince has now taken it upon himself to be a big brother and mentor to McNair's kids so he wants to set a good example.

He has a different look on the field now than he did 2 years ago, which is why I'm very hopeful that the change we saw is here to stay.

 

Yeah he seems to look way more confident before and after the snap. When he puts that mouthpiece in, you know its a over. If he has another good day against the niners defense then that would be great.

 

Let's not get carried away please.

Vince threw a gift wrapped interception to Derek Cox on the deep pass to Gage in the End Zone. Cox dropped an easy catch.

I'm not criticising I'm just asking for Vinces fans to stay level headed about him after one game.

His pass to Britt under pressure was an awesome play and his TD throw to Washington was pretty much perfect. His return to running without hesitancy as he did in 06 was also what I wanted to see. It kept a number of drives alive when Vince couldn't find an open receiver.

We even managed a successful screen pass which i was beginning to think had become extinct in in our playbook.

From what I saw Vince made a difference on Offence but it was also a team effort. Our whole team came out swinging. We barely lost our first three games and I blame Cecil for those losses.

Equally Cecil had a lot to do with our first win.

 

We didn't put the ball on the ground. That's the main reason for yesterdays succes.
No turnovers, no fumbles, no drops. It wasn't just VY or CJ, it was the entire offense.
The defense still has some slips, but it was quite an improvement from previous games.

 

Now that Jeff decided that he would win or lose with Vince, we will see the coaches gradually bring him along. Success came too easy for Vince his rookie season. Last year was his wake up call and I believe he knows it.

My prediction is he will show gradual improvement as the weeks progress and the Titans will finish 9-7. As Dion Sanders says Vince needs to "do what you do" to be successful.
