Should Vince Young have started for Tennessee today?

The Injured Reserve list is an unforgiving mistress.

Dude is on IR simply because of the fallout. He probably could've held off surgery on his thumb til after the season. Vince did not want to be pulled and did not want to leave the game. But for the 2nd time in his career, Jeff Fisher successfully used an injury to make a QB change. Something most head coaches dont do. But Fisher has 0 faith in him and pulled the trigger for the 2nd time this season. Fisher said regardless of the injury, no matter what, Vince aint his QB. Im trying to wrap my mind around the fact why he hasnt been fired yet.

Fisher did I think.

Though honestly, Fisher knew he was gone when he said that, so I dunno how his tune woulda changed.

Yep

"We had an incident in the locker room, and it was very unfortunate. It's been well documented," Fisher said. "As a result of not only the incident in the locker room but also more importantly the injury to Vince's thumb, Vince is not going to play anymore this season."

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
