    San Fran, Miami, Minnesota, Cinci, etc...


    Too many teams out there that need solutions at QB NOW and too few QBs available. He'll get a job. If he doesn't, then there are some stupid owners and coaches out there.

    And Casserly has been VERY wrong before on the CBS show. He literally loathes VY, and feels that he has to try to consistently "prove" that he was right in not drafting him. There's no way douchebag Casserly really talked to all 31 other teams in detail about interest in Young. He's just straight-up lying on air.

    Vince will be a starter at the beginning of next season, you can bet on that. The top three likeliest destinations where he will be competing for (and earning) the starting QB role are 1. Seattle 2. Miami 3. Minnesota. After those (clear fits and no-brainers for both parties, in my opinion), I would say 4. San Francisco 5. Buffalo and 6. Arizona.

    Vince did blow it, but I don't blame him. As a fan I despise Jeff Fisher. I can only imagine how much it must suck to be second guessed by him every weekend. It's a slap in the face, and it doesn't go way. Vince grew very frustrated with the hand cuffs Fisher put on him. Vince deserves better than what Fisher and the Titans were doing for him. yes Fisher has helped Vince in some aspects, but he also held him back all these years. I personally hope Vince goes to Minnesota where he's the missing piece, and wins his ring sooner than later.

    I believe that had Vince prostrated himself at Fisher's feet and promised to do what he needed to do to be a franchise QB, he would still be here. But he thought, wrongly, that he could curse out his coach, run to papa Bud, tell him a tall tale about how it went down, and all would be well for Vince. That's why he said he was very surprised when he found out he had been dumped. Papa Bud told him all would be well and he believed it. But that was before Fisher's head honchos told Bud about ALL the things that happened, or didn't happened, as the case may have been, since Vince arrived here. And so, when saving a whole lot money was weighed against the chance Vince would change, money won out. But there will be coaches and OCs that think they can cure him, and that may well be the case. I wish him all the best and it won't bother me a bit if he turns out to be a very productive player because that would mean that someone helped him help himself.

    He isn't some child that needs looking after, these are all grown men that happen to be playing a sport(game) for money. He dosn't need to prostrate himself to fisher, thats just demeaning.

    Before the start of the season, most of us felt like this was the decision year on Vince. He'd shown some potential on the field, as well as some weaknesses. The one thing we all wanted to see was if he could string it together for an entire season.

    It's just sad because he seemed to be on his way in terms of passing the ball. Injury aside I think on the field his play this year might have earned him a long term deal. And then he blew it. So we lived through his growing pains as a young QB, and when he finally starts to grow into the game he tosses it all away in about 10 minutes. He'll probably grow up. Maybe put it all together in another uniform... but what a waste. He's got to go back and start working his way up from the bottom again.

    Riverman might be the furthest thing from an idiot on this forum. And he sure has never lost himself millions of dollars with an ill-advised outburst.

    Vince began his career here as a poised leader who just needed to work on the intricacies of the position. He ended it as a promising QB who had completely lost his poise. And it might cost him more than most people earn in a lifetime. That's stupid no matter how you look at it. And this is coming from a guy who was/is a VY fan.

    Here come the VY homers again, hopefully you can go follow whatever team he signs with. The guy is gone and not coming back, can we move on and stop talking about him please? Let's just hope some team will give us a draft pick for him, but that is highly doubtful. At least he has his steakhouse.

    In my opinion I think there a few teams that could use him such as san fran or minnesota. I think he would do well in minnesota with AP, percy, and that offense. He may have blew it with the Titans but he still has a chance to do well with another team. Either way you look at it, he is gone and we need to focus on a qb for 2011

    Tebow throws like a girl. I find it very hard to believe he'll be a legit top 10 QB with that working against him.
