opinion poll: true/fale Jeff Fisher owes his job to VY

I like how a good play by Vince Young is a negative for you.

Vince had a 20yard TD run that game.

Vince had a TD pass and TD run that game.




As previously said, it is unfair to give so much credit to Vince alone, but he was a big reason for the success that season. I know you like to hate on him, but his play positively effected the whole team. And it wasn't like Vince was doing well based on the gameplan, he was doing well by scrambling and improvising.

 

So, what you're saying then is.....

BRING BACK PACMAN!! :wink2:

 

The thread title had me up in arms. After that all I saw was red.

I'm going to hold my tongue on the last question. :gag:

 

Vince threw for and ran for a TD in the first Houston game.
Again, young’s long TD run in Houston in overtime.
The ravens game was all on the defense. Vince actually had a pretty good game – 200 yards passing and ran for a TD. problem was the defense that ranked in the 27th or lower in passing couldn't stop them at all when they needed too
And vince accounted for all 3 TDs in that giants game. Whether the DE let go of him or not, Collins would not have been able to do what was necessary for that.
Vince had a very good game against Buffalo and actually drove them down the field for the TD and FG in the end that won them the game.
Jags and Pats I’ll give you b/c the jags figured out how to read and stop him early, and the pats pretty much did a “ok, this guy isn’t experienced enough to read the stuff we throw at manning…so let’s throw at him the stuff we throw at manning”

Anyways though, those are beside the point,:

While Collins was good last year, the problem was he wasn't in 2006. In the first 3 games he started, he threw 6 picks. And what stands out the most was the situation in the jets game at the end there. The team got inside the 8 yard line, needed to score a TD, the run was stuffed, and he couldn't get it done. could only hit 1 yard WR gains, completely missed the third time, and on 4th down the ball went low between WRs and into the ground. The team couldnt punch it in in situations like that with him, while that season with Young they could.

Now right now it's the exact opposite, and if anything you could say that Collins benefited alot from Vince being started earlier b/c it forced/made collins get his stuff together and improve himself to get to his current, successful starting point now.

The main thing was though, that season they were winning games with Vince that they weren’t winning earlier in the season, with Collins and whoever they had in. Everyone that year started playing better when he was out there that year.

 

Because he saved Jeff Fisher's job. :thumb:
