It’s painful watching a qb with no anticipation. If a WR has to be free and open before you throw the ball then your not ready to play QB in the NFL.

well, he could actually start if Fitzpatrick stinks it up and/or gets hurt if Young plays well and i think he can fit this style of offense.

Vince “Scare Crow” Young……. He’d be the best QB in the league….. if he only had a brain.

I think Young is a pretty good backup QB. Just think how much different Indy’s season would have been last year if they had had Young instead of Painter.

The problem is that a backup can quickly become a starter when someone like Vick goes down and you don’t really want Young as your starter long term.

I honestly think Young should go to the Cardinals. I think he would fit in good with their system there, he’d have targets, and they don’t have anyone right now to lead them. I’m surprised the Cardinals never went after him.

People seem to forget Vy beat the giants last season, the eagles as a whole were poor. VY > Fitz, its just a matter of time Vy always had the tools the guy just keep his head straight.

Young does not fit as a back-up. He doesn’t have the skill set. He is best in a no/one read offense like he played at Texas. He could be effective on a team that built an offense like that for him. McNabb did it for several years and Young throws much better than McNabb.

okay, it’s not exactly fair to say the Titans “gave up on him.” He threw himself out the door with his baby antics.

I bet he ends up the starter before the season is over. Fitzpatrick contract was the biggest overreaction to winning a few games.Way to go Buffalo, now you’re stuck with small arm quarterback in a cold windy stadium, & his backup is the dumbest QB in NFL history
