    We saving Kerry so he can reach 30 turnovers this year? :grrhee:

    God forbid if he got injured, we'd not win a game.... Oh wait he hasn't helped the team win in 2009 at all.

    He was taken out like all QB's who struggle and get dominated during an entire game, once the game is out of reach, the backups come in.

    If injury was a concern I would think they need to keep LenDale off the field and put in Ringer also. Right now LenDale is more valuable to the offense than KFC.

    Put in Vince Young, Replace Dinger and Fisher with some guys that will work around Vince and believe in him. The problem will be solved.

    Benching VY from the get-go will lead to his departure from the Titans. IMO I don't believe VY will re-sign another contract. We should trade him, but I'm not so sure another team will want to pick up his contract.

    After the game, Sapp and another player had very interesting takes. They both thought that this move was to get rid of Vince. They said the Titans will not play him as starter because that is the best way not to force a decision. If Vince plays well, they have to think about the money. If he doesn't play, they don't have to think about it at all and will cut ties.

    Thought it was interesting because I had not seriously thought they would do that. I don't think I was ready to believe it. But both players looked like they really believed it.

    I'm 50/50. I don't know what they are going to do at the end of the season. This was a strange move to put Vince in. It's not making a lot of sense to me right now.

    I think protecting Collins is ridiculous. If anything he needs more reps. I think Putting Vince in for a throwing situation is bit ridiculous. Collins is better at that, supposedly. None it made sense to me.

    I feel mostly that Fisher is starting to mishandle players from Haynesworth, to Carr, to Mouton, to Vince, to Kearse, to Collins. He losing grasp. I look at like a god complex right now, but he can still change. It's not too late to admit that he's made mistakes and try something new. But to always think he is right, I dunno, it's catching up with him now.

    I'm not saying I think he did the right thing, but I think you're wrong if he put VY in to punish KC. Fisher loves KC and he'll stick with him until Bud says something or the fans get out of hand.

    Which could very, very well happen @ LP Field after the bye should we still be winless.

    As it should, it'd be pretty retarded to have KC in there at 0-6. I'm hoping to see VY play a decent amount this year.

    Exactly why VY was just thrown in there, Fisher knew he wouldn't do/show much a that time, so it was his way of saying, "Ok, fans, here, you want him in, there, he's in. See, he stinks..just as I have been saying all along."

    He is trying to put Vince in situations where he knows he will fail to make himself look good IMO.

    Exactly, if He was playing Vince because the game was outta reach then why didn't he do that last week vs Jacksonville. I hope VY starts soon so he can have some work under his belt before we see houston on mnf. Were undefeated against hou with vy at qb.

    Please tell me you're not defending Chow. Vince looked good his rookie season because he made plays by himself, in spite of the awful playcalling.

    Chow did not call for QB scrambles/draws or what not. In 2007 he called plays like Tom Brady was behind center when we had a terrible WR corp, and when they couldn't get open, Vince improvised. Chow had nothing to do with that other than providing terrible calls that allowed vince to run after the original plays inevitably broke down. :lol:
