    SUMMARY: Despite a 5-2 start, the Titans offense is sputtering. For the fourth game in a row they failed to score a passing touchdown, although three would-be scores were dropped or misplayed. Vince Young hasn't had a TD pass since the Saints game over a month ago. Against the Raiders, Young completed six passes for a career-low 42 yards and posted a 50.3 quarterback rating, but he said "just little things" are holding the offense back. "That is all that it is," he said. "It is guys finishing and doing what you have to do to make the play and get in the end zone." Had TE Ben Troupe brought in his pass, and if Quinton Ganther or Roydell Williams caught theirs, Young's passer rating would have soared to a season-best 108.3.

    True our receivers didn't catch the ball well. But also true is the fact the Vince threw a couple of errant balls. He'll get better...I think the injury is really bugging him too. He's too much of a competitor to just throw in the towel. At least he isn't killing us with a huge number of INT's. Truth be known, I think he's trying to hard to be something he hasn't ever been, a true pocket type QB. I'm okay with his running, but he does need to improve as a passer a ton. He needs to do both well.

    Our receivers dropped 2 touchdown passes. Those 2 plays took approximately 10 seconds combined. What happened the other 50+ minutes of the game?

    that's a great point. They make those catches....and we are talking about how much progress Vince is making and what a great passer he is becoming. But, when you throw it as little as we did, a couple drops will kill you.

    Bottom line, we wanted to run, and we did.

    The bottom line is that we could have put the game away at the end with a TD, but have to settle for 3. To be an elite team we're going to have to put games away when we have the opportunity.
