for those of you who havent realized it yet, i dont like VY

Carr (yes thats right David Carr) has outperformed him bigtime.
David Garrard the bench guy has done better
Even the 80 year old Brett Farve has done better

also for those who compared his running style to mike vick
young-225 yards
vick-704 yards, and has also out passed him

sorry, my friend used to be all about vince young, now im weening him off. I never really thought id say this but i hope he doesnt succeed in the nfl, because he is so overrated.

by the way if you want a laugh, go to youtube.com and search "vince young mack brown" and click on the love affair one. It's really funny, even you longhorn fans will giggle. thanks for letting me rant
 
his stats arent too impresive, but since he has taken over, they have beaten the Skins, played the Colts to 1 point on the road, beat us (although that was because of turnovers, he only had 80 passing yards), played the Ravens to 1 point and beat the Eagles. They were winless before he started. There has to be some corolation there.
 
Great Post but you do know that vince has led the titans to as many wins as us *oh and he Owned us* oh let me remind you at this point in the year last year vince was still playing college football post this thread in 4 or 5 years.


this is such a stupid thread how many game has vince started not even a full season yet:thumbdown :rofl: im suprised the mods havent deleted it yet lol:lightbulb:
 
Vince Young hasn't even played a full season yet so to say he sucks is kind of dumb. Almost all rookie QB's "suck" if they're thrown right into the fire. Peyton Manning wasn't that good. Carr wasn't very good. Alex Smith wasn't very good last season. Ben Rothliesberger was an aberration, not the norm. Rookie QB's are going to have their struggles. You have to give him more than half a season to prove himself. I'm not the biggest VY fan, but saying he sucks doesn't have much of an argument to it.

Being a rookie doesn't explain his crappy performance in the combine. Let's face it, VY got drafted so high for two reasons. 1) He has an excellent manager who praised him as the next Mike Vick but better, 2) He was on the other side of the ball from Reggie Bush.
 
I can't even take the O.P. seriously. He's comparing VY to Brett Favre? Are you kidding me? You're telling me Vince Young should come into this league as a should be Senior in college and dominate?

He hasn't been impressive in every game but last week against Baltimore he was incredible.

BTW, good post Run-David-Run

That is a statment that I don't understand. Vince didn't play well and yet the Titan team beat us (actually we beat ourselves).

No doubt Vince is a leader but there are 3 phases in a football game.

I hated Vince Young at first, but after review I think he is much better quarterback than David Carr is. He has beaten teams that we couldn't. He has thrown more touchdown passes than Carr this season. Don't get your panties in a tight wad because vince young is better.

He has beaten TEAMS ...wow, why have the other guys on the Titans with him then?.. just let Vince run around and he can take them all on
:superman:
 
Hilarious. Weren't you in another thread whining about giving Carr a supporting cast even though his is arguably better than what Vince has?
 
Just goes to show you that people who support Carr will go to no end to snicker at others. Other Carr supporters have gone after AJ and Demeco and here we have someone going after Vince Young. Very sad and makes me ponder was it Bud Adams or the city of Houston that was the catalyst for the Oilers leaving.

Nah, Vince Young isn't better than Carr. Not now, and probably not ever. So far he's just adequate. Sorry.
 
tsk tsk....

How about we actually watch football, and not a stat sheet....

If you haven't seem him play this year then you wouldn't be able to tell how well he's played considering his circumstances...

If you have seen him play then you just can't recognize a rookie playing well...

No doubt.

He is way better decoy than Reggie Bush, that much is for sure.

Watch a Titans game. You will see.

Every time he hands off to Travis Henry but then runs a bootleg like he still has the ball every LB on the field goes right after him, which frees up holes in the middle for Henry.

The Titans running game averaged 67 yds per game with Collins.

It averages over 150 yds per game with Young.

Sure, you lose passing yds with Vince but you have to be able to run the ball to win.
 
Vince Young will be a beast of an NFL QB by his fifth year. I can only hope that we have a good team by then, or he will own us.
 
The same way some people hate Adams for leaving the Oilers, I dislike VY for leaving UT. He had a good thing going. Oh well.
 
JMO....I don't think anyone on a message board has any business saying that any NFL or college player sucks.

To say a team sucks is all right.

These guys that make at least $260,000 a year doing something that we all wish we could. What the hell makes us so great that we can say that they suck?
 
i also want to know why anyone would "hate" a player. unless he's leonard little or some other kind of criminal. vince young has a pretty clean record as far as i'm concerned. ah, immaturity.
 
Everyone was saying around the draft that Vince has "it". "It" meaning leadership and the ability to get wins. Carr on the other hand didn't have "it".

At this point in the season Carr has better stats and has that awesome completion record. Vince on the other hand has more wins and his team is playing more competitive games in their losses which wasn't happening before he took over. Also, the Titans do not have more talent than the Texans so don't even try that argument.

I am a firm believer in "it" and stats mean nothing to me or the standings. Those with "it" tend to make their teammates better. Those without "it" tend to bring them down a level.

All of this is not surprising to me because this is why I wanted the Texans to draft Vince. What is surprising is that it is already happening. I thought we would not to worry about this for a couple of seasons. I was wrong.
 
I posted this a long time ago and I think it is pretty good....

TexansLucky13 said:
Eh... the "IT" factor is a dangerous thing. I always like to seperate the guys who I see as having the "IT" factor into two subcategories.

1) Natural "IT" factor - Examples.... Marino/Manning

They break records. They are clearly the best. The entire league talks about how powerful these guys are. Laser-rocket arms. Dominators of the Defense. They MAKE good teams. The problem is... they seem to have a problem winning the big games. Marino lost his only SB, while Peyton is yet to get there.

2) Developed "IT" factor - Examples.... Bradshaw/Brady

These guys are above average QBs who play(ed) on an above average team. They got Super Bowl blings... they are SB MVPs. They had a team where their above average skills could be harnessed and their leadership, while not the best, is unquestioned. Record-breaking numbers? Not likely. But they always show up, and they are Field Generals none-the-less.

I see VY in the #2 category. That is what scares me about him. At TU he was the ultimate QB. An awesome team, an awesome athlete. The problem is... he plays for a terrible team.

What I am trying to say is this.....

IMHO... as explained above.... he will never do anything for that team unless the team itself improves.

We pay that salary.

I'm pretty sure that we don't. We might pay for the stadiums, but we don't pay their salary.

We do, however pay the salaries of politicians. We can say that they suck all we want.

BTW...save the Longhorn hate for the college forum.

Without fans, there is no sport. Period. We have no say in the decisions they make (relatively), but we have a right to complain all we want. We give them jobs.

BTW... Ask your Longhorn buddies to keep the Aggie jokes to themselves if they don't want to be called out. Besides..... I developed my anti-TU attitude because of the actions of Longhorns, especially on this message board, and for no other reason than that.

We're just guys on a message board. We can complain, but to say a pro athlete sucks is lame. I'm pretty sure that they could say that we suck too.

Kind of like this:

"Those guys on the message board don't have a life. They suck."

Amen, Amen, I say to you.......

If Vince & the Titans continue to play like they have the last few weeks, and we continue to play like we have the last few weeks, The Titans will be the favorites come December 10th, ..........in our own backyard.

What does college football have to do with any of this? Until that sport get's a playoff system it is a joke but that's another subject altogether. We are talking NFL football and I don't see why it even matters where some player went to school. It certainly has nothing to do with how a player performs on the field.

Hate on the UT fans all you want. I too can't stand UT fans or any other college fans that root for NFL teams because some player went to their school. Also, hating a player in the NFL just because he went to a rival school is pretty lame also. I only see the current uniform he is wearing, not the one he wore in college. I guess it is because I am an NFL fan first and want the best players on my team regardless where they went to school. An Alumni isn't going to do squat for a player come Sunday.

BS.

You developed your anti-UT attitude cuz that is what they teach you at A&M.

The Aggie War Hymn that ya'll constanly sing is completely anti-UT. The song is about choosing A&M over UT.

UT fans dont have to sing stupid anti-A&M songs before games cuz our teams takes care of it on the field.

If A&M football even had a chance to hang with UT football then ya'll wouldnt have to make up anti-UT songs just to make yourselves feel better about losing to Texas all the time.

You are truely ignorant and misinformed. What a shame.

And the fact is you do not know me. I am not from Texas and I didn't even care about Texas colleges until I went to one. I wasn't big on the Aggie thing until I started meeting all of these TU folk. They REALLY pissed me off. That is why I bleed maroon now, friend. I was not brainwashed.

They cram that "Aggies Suck" **** down peoples throats at TU, too. I have friends who go there and I know the crap that they do.

P.S. - I guess you also believe that Texas was created before A&M, too? Haha....
 
Sometimes I think these Aggie fans hate the Longhorns so much that they would rather their NFL teams lose than win with ex UT players. I don't hate A&M so I guess I can't understand that. Let's see, maybe I hate Notre Dame but if Brady Quinn became a winner at the NFL level I would love to have him.

BTW, is that school so lame that they don't even teach you that it is University of Texas (UT) not TU? TU is an electrical company called Texas Utilities.

You know, I see plenty of maroon anti-UT shirts. I've yet to see an anti-TAMU shirt.
 
i think some people take these rivalries too far. they get all worked up and think they have to hate everything about the other school, no matter what. i miss the good ole days where you hated the other guy, but respected him, and wished him well when you weren't playing. "i hate vince young" blah blah blah
