VY completes long pass

You undereducated diaper wetting VY cheerleaders need to listen to the in depth analysis provided. Paying close attention to the insight parsed out by the omniscient veterans around here will help facilitate a better understanding of the game of football.

Vince Young’s shortcomings should be obvious after a review of this thread.


VY defied the critics and completed another long pass tonight. This is two games in a row. He almost completed another one, but after holding the ball for 5 seconds, he decided to throw into double coverage. Tough break.



The above example accurately summarizes VY’s performance in three different plays spanning two games. Condensing several hours of game play into a few terse sentences can only be accomplished by someone with football knowledge and understanding beyond our mere mortal capability. To further illustrate Vince’s inability to throw down field, watch this clip of Vince dumping the ball off.

Did you notice the Packers didn't even rush him on the long pass into double coverage, they just contained him, and dared him to beat them with his arm, which he couldn't do. This is going to be what you see this year. He throws a 10 yarder at Hartsock's knees, and misses Scaife on another 10 yarder. While the headline was meant to be funny, it has a lot of truth in it. This is why you are seeing so much short stuff right now.


This is detailed in depth at the 40 second mark. http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d801f6782 There is almost no pressure, and Vince is stuck in the pocket. Without any discernable pressure his form is a little better, but he is still either unwilling or unable to get the ball down field. Furthermore, since teams have Vince on tape now, they have found out how to contain him. Candy from a baby! They will just contain him. His mobility will be a hindrance to the Titans. This will be his ticket to the CFL.


Tonight we were being pretty vanilla, and not showing it all. I am just disappointed that he is showing NO improvement from last year in his passing skills, something Chow swore he would work on. He is still lacking touch, throwing off his back foot and not following through.....I guess no one is brave enough to tell the guy he can't throw.



It is very important to be very aggressive in pre-season. You should always pull out the stops to show the other teams what you can do! Shock and awe baby! In the last two games, his eleven incompletions are a trend. If you can’t see that, you are simply a VY jockrider. He either didn’t follow Chow’s recipe for improvement in the area of passing skill, or his lackadaisical work ethic took over again. View the :30 second mark for proof. http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d801c54b3



If you understood football you would see why this is going to be a real problem. Until VY can scare someone with a deep threat, teams will always be crowding the LOS on us. This is not grasping at straws, but maybe you should get one for your Kool-Aid.


Just look at the opening frame of http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d801c54b3 and you will see a Kool-Aid stain on that idiot’s shirt.


VY is just another Titan to me, although a very important one, and it's critical he starts doing things better or we aren't going to win.


No doubt about it. The end of last year is a great example of how VY’s lack of improvement kept the Titans out of the playoffs. With the game on the line, at New England, Vince threw an interception on an ill advised deep ball. The ROY was obviously political and simply a sympathetic gesture on the NFL's part.


I back up every critisizm with examples of why I feel that way…


This is noted heavily throughout the thread in at least three or four in depth sentences. Everyone should go back and re-read more posts by the OP. And please, if you must retort, do so without spelling errors and don’t make him correct you’re grammer.



With no threat of a deep ball, defenses are going to play 8 in the box, and the running game will suffer. Either that or you will see more of last night, defenses just containing him and daring him to throw. You just keep waving the pom poms, and ignoring the obvious.



With the big play speedy veteran receivers in the Titans arsenal, Vince Young needs to take it upon himself to get the damn ball downfield as quickly as possible. Hell, with the All-Pro O-line to protect him, stable of horses in the running game, and the MVP candidates at receiver, all this team really requires is someone to get the ball in the general direction of a receiver or turn around and hand off. Helen freakin’ Keller could have done that.


Yes, my logic is that you should carve up defenses in preseason when they aren't even gameplanning for you.



Listen one last time you Vince Young lap dogs. When people on this board come down from the mountain to sprinkle water on you little people, you should print the post and read it out loud before you go to bed at night.
