1st year 2006: Young holds the NFL record for rushing yards by a rookie quarterback with 552, breaking the old record of 408 yards set by Bobby Douglass in 1969. He won the Associated Press NFL Offensive Rookie of The Year honors at the conclusion of the 2006 NFL campaign, becoming only the third quarterback to win the award, along with Dennis Shaw and Ben Roethlisberger. At 0-3 VY takes over an comes a few plays away from leading them to the playoffs something no team as ever done when losing there first 3 games. He caps off the year by being a Pro bowl alternate and eventually making the Pro bowl. So after a 5-11 2004 season, 4-12 2005 season Vy helps them to 8-8 in his first season in 2006.
2nd Year 2007: The NFL now knows the type of player Vince can be and begins to game-plan accordingly. Yes Vince does struggles with this. Vince doesn't run as well, reads defenses wrong and throws way more interceptions than touchdowns and only shows glimpses of the big plays he accomplished his rookie year. At the end of the regular season, Young finished with 2,459 passing yards with 9 touchdowns and 17 interceptions. Additionally, Young would finish with 395 rushing yards and 3 rushing touchdowns. The good and bad established Vince and a much better defense than his rookie year helped the titans to its first playoff since 2003.
3rd Year 2008: New offense and coodinator, 4 struggling preseason games and 1 struggling season game Vince is being booed like he was the other teams quarterback. This is where I have to say this is insane. Yes Vince handled the troubles he is having wrong but at 24 and playing the most important position in the league how perfect are we asking him to be. Are we asking him to be perfect because he seems to be a star? I don't know. Do we want him to be perfect because of his nationality? I don't know. Should he be perfect because he is a running QB and not a pocket passer? I dont know. I do know the influence for him to be perfect in his 3rd season his enormously insane! Eli Manning was talked about repeatlely and has now taken his team to the SuperBowl in his 4th season. Phillip Rivers, Drew Brees, and many others have been bashed for not playing up to the level of a great QB in their early years. Yet with Vince we want to say he shouldn't be in the league anymore, should be traded, and is a bust.
Vince will be a successful QB in this league. Vince will most likely win his position back by the end of the year and be the Titans QB for the playoffs. Someone on here had a thread that said trade for VY. And others have said we would be worse. That also doesn't make any since given his game play. Titans rushing game was only better than ours only because of VY 500 plus yards rushing. Check the stats Titans total rushing yards 2214, Texans had 1687. Lets just take 400 of those yards and give them to the Texans and we not only have a better team but maybe a few more wins. Lets consider the fact that Tennessee has no big time recievers and then take in the decision of stopping our running game with Vince which would have over 2000 yards and stopping Andre Johnson from going deep. Many times all Carr did was throw it up to Andre. Vince couldn't do that? Vince threw 12 td passes his rookie year so lets just take half of those and give them to Andre and that would be one more than he caught with Carr. Dare we say that could have been the force for another Texans win. At 0-3 Vince takes over and goes 8-5 as the starter. If we get 3 of those wins from Vince's play we are 9-7 and we are in the playoffs. To say Vince will be a great QB is exaggerating but to say he should be out of the league is just stupid!
If you really think about it you would agree. And Merrile Hoge is just an *****!
