The only way he ever plays again is if the other 96 roster QB’s go on IR…or Mac Brown gets an NFL job!

I think that what Reid meant when he said that Young was not a back-up QB was that he was a third stringer. NOT that he could still challenge as a starter. Why wouldn’t Reid not want someone who could spell Vick for the 3-5 games he’s hurt every season?

What an ego. Me, I, Me, I . He just doesn’t get it
When he can be come a TEAM player which is
doubtful he might make it. But maybe it is better
that he stays in Austin and be the QB of his steak
house but we all know what happen to most
steak houses owned by QBs’

If I had his Wonderlic score, I’d probably think the same thing.

You know the Raiders won’t be able to pass on him. It’s just too tempting. Somebody in that organization is drawing up a contract this minute.

“VY’s record as starting QB 31 – 19 is actually better than that of probably 60+% of current starting QB’s.”

How do all 32 teams do it without you in their front office?

Vince Young is a textbook example of why you don’t draft players with a sub 10 on the Wonderlic intelligence test for certain positions. It may be ok for defensive linemen, linebacker, and cornerbacks like Morris Claiborne to be illiterate (way to go Les Miles), but definitely not at QB.

Simply having the skill to do the job is not enough in the NFL. Just ask Donovan McNabb. In this league, you’re only as good as your recent performances. Vince Young can’t just brush away that he played poorly in 2 of his last 3 games, when the spotlight was on him. At this point, he should be grateful if any team signs him as a backup.

He has the physical skills but his mental state is off. I believe its 70% mental to play the QB position in the NFL. With that said all he will be used for in the NFL is wildcat situations.

Vince doesnt win games, everyone else won the games despite Vince being QB. I suppose anyone who likes Vince figured Jeff Fisher is a racists? Young cost Fisher his job because Young wasnt good enough to win games on his own, when it mattered. That is the bottom line, and everyone in the Titans organization knew it. Imagine how many championship the Titans might have won with a good QB? We’ll never know now. All the talent in Tennessee is drying up and getting old, or just flat out retired. With the Talent Vince had around him, average skills could have won it all at leasst once. Vince isnt even as good as Trent Dilfer. Dilfer has a ring, and got it with even less talent around him. Enough about Vince Young being good.

Yes, I am a Bucs fan, however I live in Nashville. I’ve heard more about VY here in Tennessee than most people have heard about.

Yes, he had the melt down here, and borderline psycotic (sp?) However, if I am an owner of a team and needed a starting QB, I would look at Young. He does have a very good winning percentage, which is not all that common in the NFL today. I would give him a try out. There are several teams that need a lot of help at QB, and VY won’t cost them that much. Vince wins games… which is what puts fans in the seats

Vince Young’s chances of getting a starting job somewhere are probably about as good as Donovan McNabb’s (slim to none).

VY’s record as starting QB 31 – 19 is actually better than that of probably 60+% of current starting QB’s.
Browns, Dolphins, Bills, Cardinals, & Jaguars, should give him a look. Low risk proposition. He can be effective with the starter’s cut of practice reps, a decent run game, & a decent defense. These 5 teams fit that bill.

you would think that if people think he’s a starter that Miami would have called him, now it could still happen after the draft, but i doubt it. oh, another thing, forget Houston Young. if you go there, you will be the 3rd string QB behind Schaub and Yates.

Hey pftcensorssuck,
You’re obviously new to sarcasm, right?
Ok, here you go.

sarcasm definition

A form of irony in which apparent praise conceals another, scornful meaning. For example, a sarcastic remark directed at a person who consistently arrives fifteen minutes late for appointments might be, “Oh, you’ve arrived exactly on time!”

Now, don’t make me define irony.

I’ll go a step further and say he never was good enough on a consistent basis to be a starting quarterback.

Delusional. People would sign him, if they didn’t have years of terrible game type. It got to the point where there is no way for anyone to deny how bad he is…well, except for himself that is.

Vince young is a gamer period. The season when Kerry Collins went 0-6 and Vince came in and led them to a 8-8 season I watched every Titan game that year and it’s no doubt in my mind that this kid is better than most starters in the nfl today
