Does anyone still want Vince Young as a Titan?

I am one of a few folks on here who was disappointed when the Titans drafted him to start with. My position on Young has never changed since he became a Titan. I didn't want him then and I don't want him now.

flame away..It won't be the first time :ha:

 

I'm not saying that VY is better than Vick or as good. I'm just saying that circumstances lead to fewer attempts. You can only compare players based on percentages.

 

Yes. He still has the ability. But at the same time, I can understand the other side of the argument because you just can't keep making excuses for this guy as if he's 5 years old. "It's okay, sweetie, there will be bad games." Fact is, he should know that by now. He's GOT to learn that. However, whether you want to admit it or not, it's obvious Fisher never liked the guy. If it weren't for Adams we never would have picked him. And I'm sure the fact that your coach has never fully supported you doesn't help with overcoming any maturity issues. Also, the fact that Fisher said Young lost his job today, "injury or not," is just ridiculous. Does Rusty Smith really give us a better chance to win? I don't have anything against him, but he's a rookie nevertheless. But then again, I don't know what comment Vince made to Fish at the end of the game, either. I think whatever decision we make regarding this issue, especially this game in particular, is going to be a bit uninformed.

In reality though, whether you like Vince or not, what are the other options at quarterback right now? We won't finish with a bad enough record this year to get a great draft pick, so what would we be left with? Even if we DO get a quarterback in the draft, we'd most likely be stuck in the same situation we were with in '05 with benching him a year to learn the offense and whatnot. On top of that, what veteran winning quarterbacks will be up for grabs at the end of the year? Besides, possibly, Kolb.

In the end, for me at least, this really freakin sucks, whatever way I look at it. There's something about Vince that's stolen my heart from the start, and I've normally stuck with him even when he's looked like straight shat. But now I don't really know what to think. He's always been my baby, but right now it seems like that's all he is on the field too.


EDIT: hmm....

"As Fisher gathered the team, Young uttered expletives under his breath as he was getting dressed, according to the source.

Young then headed for the locker room door. Fisher told him not to walk out on his teammates. Young responded that he was not walking out on his teammates, but was walking out on Fisher, according to the source.

Young and Fisher exchanged more words as the quarterback went out the door, the source said"

...doesn't sound good.

 

I hope I wake up tomorrow and he is cut. It was shameful the way he acted today.

 

Vince Young Passing stats
Passer Rating 97.6 -(5th)
Completion Percentage 57.9% - (28th)
Yds/Game 136.2 - (33rd)
Passing TDs 10 - (21st)
20+ yd passes 16 -(28th)
40+ yd passes 3 - (19th)

Not exactly elite or even good...

 

I want Vince to be our QB. He has shown he can be a good QB when given the chance. To me Fisher is the problem. He is mis-using Vince. We are not going to go anywhere with this team until we get a new head coach. Fisher's offensive philosophy sucks with 11/10 plays is run CJ up the middle. We have Moss, Vince can get this guy the ball with the right play calling, but Fisher's man crush with Collins can't allow Vince to succeed!

We don't need another QB, We need another Coach. Getting another QB is starting from scratch and at this point with the talent of this team is ludicrous. We should use ALL 7 picks of the draft to draft some darn Corners, or trade all 7 picks for a D-Coordinator and H. Coach.

 

What if we won today?

Jesus Christ, you guys act like he is Joey Barton.
