The Titans now have a QB who can pick up 3rd downs and give them long TOP. Something they severely lacked in the first 6 games of the season. The Titans now have a QB who along with Chris Johnson gives their offense sideline to sideline ability and has helped open up their offense. Look at Chris Johnson's #'s balloon from when Collins was starting to the past 4 games under Young. The guy is getting 150 a game now because teams are being forced to pick their poison, Vince or Chris. The Titans now have a QB their defense can believe in to make plays at the end of the game and will keep them off the field most of it, thus they have performed better. If you put Vince Young on the Carolina Panthers, DeAngelo Williams & Jonathan Stewart would be doing what you're seeing Chris Johnson doing and we would have less 3 and outs. Too bad our owner and front office would NEVER bring in a QB with Young's skillset and will live and die with a QB similar to the one Tennessee benched in favor of Young.

i want a qb with the skillset of Manning! forget vince!:D

Yep, a couple quick examples would be.

Brett Favre, draft Aaron Rodgers.

Donnvan Mcnabb, draft Kevin Kolb.

McNabb's durability and Favre's potential retirement (remember, he started hinting at it through Peter King all the way back in 2003) were the main reasons for those picks. Not that we shouldn't have taken a quarterback at some point, but the issue isn't cut and dry with those two teams.

EDIT: LOL at the above post proclaiming that we should have drafted Trent Edwards.

Trent Edwards was a third-round pick in 2007. You know someone we picked over him? Mr. Dwayne Jarrett. I dare say that Trent Edwards would hold just a wee bit more value than Jarrett for this current team, don't you agree?

And Brady Quinn is clearly better than Jake Delhomme. Quinn plays with no receivers, no running back, and no offensive line. And look at what he did this week. Do you think Jake could have done the same?

well if the baseline for value is being better than dwayne jarrett than yes a fourth string QB would be valuable.

And Brady Quinn is clearly better than Jake Delhomme. Quinn plays with no receivers, no running back, and no offensive line. And look at what he did this week. Do you think Jake could have done the same?

he had a good week? Gasp! that totally makes up for his lack of arm strength, accuracy, poise, and a torso that can rotate without twenty pound obliques getting in the way.

as a matter of fact, if you project quinn's stats against the lions into a full season, he looks amazing! Best qb in the league in fact!

if only we'd drafted charlie frye instead of eric shelton we'd be SITTING PRETTY RIGHT NOW

No, you have to look at guys who played in a game that they played well in last week. If we hadn't screwed up by taking Nate Salley over Bruce Gradkowski, then we would be holding up the Lombardi at season's end.

      Did we really shut them down though? They had 369 yards of offense.   That is 9 more yards than they average per game and 53 more than we give up per game this year.   If a team gave up 369 yards per game on defense, they'd be the 7th worst defense in the league this year. Yes, I will give our defense credit for having the 4th down stand near our goal line as well as creating the fumble that stopped their first drive, as they did rise to the occasion then, but even the INT was just a ridiculous play/throw and handed it to us and they also missed a FG. We didn't force them into a single punt all game.  We had 1 sack on a QB who had 37 pass attempts. They had drives of 56, 49, 50, 43, 58, and 71 yards (while we only had 2 over 40 yards ourselves). We bent, a lot, but never really broke, partially due to the Packers own mistakes, that's a far cry from "shutting them down" in my opinion.  Again, this is why I'm critical of us after a day like today, I'm able to look beyond a final score and evaluate how we played on the whole, and we keep squeaking out these wins despite not playing well at all.  And yes, that is what great teams do, but they also play well in the majority of their games, where as all we seem to do is squeak out ugly wins without ever playing all that well. I'm not saying I'm unhappy that we won, I've never once said anything like that, but when week after week I see serious concerns with how we played, then I'm going to call out what I see.
