Considering that in 4 games this year he has yet to throw for 200 yards, has run for 50 once, thrown a total of 3 TDs while running for only 1, I'd have to say that your analysis is far from accurate. Even last year he only threw for 200 yards or more in 4 of his 13 starts.

If you go to his page on NFL.com you can see that through 4 games his averages are very similar to last year's unspectacular numbers.

He averages around 146 yards passing per game, runs for 30 something yards per game, throws more INTs than TDs and has a QB rating in the 60's.

WHO CARES HE JUST WINS. IT'S NOT A TEAM WIN, IT'S A VINCE WIN. STATS MEAN NOTHING.

I was never all that impressed with Roethlisberger and I wouldn't take Hasselbeck this stage in his career. Two years ago, yeah.

Not the best in the NFL the people at fox are idiots but vince is in the top 6 when it comes to just doing whatever it takes to get your team a win.

Spled · 10-07-2007

He threw 3 interceptions today with no touchdowns. He has the good fortune to play with a great defense.

Hey, how come no Peyton? Actually in all seriousness I am taking Eli over a few of those guys. He had another strong game today.

is multiple costly turnovers doing whatever it takes to get your team to win?

gjmac2 · 10-08-2007

I don't think VY is the best QB in the NFL. I do think that Jeff Fisher has done a good job of not putting the success of the Titans on VY's shoulders. The Titans have a good running game, and that helps Vince out a lot. I think it would be a different story if the Titans had to reley only on VY's arm and legs.

**Texan_Bill** · 10-08-2007

People... people.... C'mon..

It's not that they think VY is all of that, but their "Reggie Bush is God" campaign has failed miserably.. They're just moving on to the next marketable guy..

WHAT! Hasselback and Campbell may not be that much better then VY (although Campbell might be better in a couple weeks - that kid is playing out of his gourd right now), but Carson Palmer is easily a better QB then VY. The Bengals have close games because of the D, not because there QB turns the ball over 3 times in a game.

kastofsna · 10-08-2007

Palmer is in another world, Young will never be even remotely close to him.

Ouch.

Would you please stop quoting these meaningless statistics? You are wrecking (as in totally refuting) a perfectly good fanlove argument.

My position remains that Vince is just not that effective. I rank him a middle of the pack NFL starting QB in terms of "all that he does" for the team. However he has rare physical gifts and may with time get better, that is assuming he finds time to practice when not giving bitter TV interviews.
