In the 3 games Kerry Collins started last year, the Titans were blown out by one of the best teams in the league (San Diego) and lost by 1 score to New York and Miami.

In the 13 games Vince Young started:

They were blown out by Dallas, Jacksonville, and New England.

They lost by 1 score to Indianapolis and Baltimore.

They beat by 1 score: Washington, Houston, Houston, Giants, Indy, Jacksonville, Buffalo.

They blew out: Philadelphia. This is the game where McNabb went down for the season. Vince Young completed 8 passes for 101 yards and ran for 49.

This isn't to say Vince Young didn't play pretty well, but they won 7 of their 8 games by a combined 25 points. Their one big win didn't have much to do with Vince Young - they got two return touchdowns.

besides that Philly game, the other one that stands out was the Jacksonville 24-21win, the offense only scored 3pts in that game

that was clearly all Vince Young

TDarko,

Your contributions to this thread have officially put you as my favorite SE poster. Congratulations.

BTW, just curious, do Cowboy fans in general dislike the Texans or because they have basically been bad that they just ignore them?

? Do you think its POSSIBLE that he has certain intangibles and skills such as leadership/4th quarter comebacks/running ability that aren't shown in his QB Rating?


[/ QUOTE ]
If only there were some way to measure his running ability....

[/ QUOTE ]

I never implied or said that his running ability isn't a measurable statistic, only that it isn't reflected in his QB Rating, which it isn't. So I really don't understand the sarcasm directed at my post.

Well everyone here who doesn't think VY is very good is not using his QB rating for their argument, so take your strawman elsewhere.

no, young may only miss ONE game as opposed to a season, but it is still important to point out that a 68 QB rating only beats smith, brees, leinart, bulger and jackson. and only one of those players is currently a
healthy starter.

Having a QB rating at the bottom of the league and 3 TDs versus 6 INTs is good evidence AGAINST this mechanism.

???

The first quote is the main evidence used in the OP that VY sucks.

The second quote is what I am directly commenting on in my early post.

Sounds terrible to say that I ignore them but they aren't a division rival or in the NFC and haven't been good enough to take serious. Hopefully this year is the start of an upward trend so that I can start to dislike them.
