reports from titansoline have said that Vince "The Future" Young stormed out of the dressing room after the game because he was furious that the Titans lost their first game. reporters have obviously taken this oppurtunity to reiturate that Young has just come off a 30-2 carrer at Texas (but then again when someone is picked in the top5 they usually have a pretty high winning record) and Vince has explained that he isnt used to loosing.

now maybe im looking into this to much but i forsee problems in the future with Vince, maybe loosing to many games and going on to many loosing seasons may spell an abrupt end to the career of a player the Titans hoped would do a Steve McNair and lead us to a Super Bowl. maybe in a few seasons if we arnt making the playoffs he will start looking elsewhere. now i know this is football and now-a-days its more about the money and the fame than playing the game, but i already see, just by his reaction after the first lose, that he may be a handful in months/years to come

We should should all give Vince Young some time to adapt to the NFL before we cross him off the list.

[Titan 31]

I would have stormed out also, they played horrible losing does not sit well with him. It's called passion.

OR maybe the guy just plain hates to lose...a trait that would serve any quarterback in the NFL.

Does he need to mature?...sure...but why should he take the lose with grace?...I rather have a guy who can't accept a loss...

[Lefty Noob]

Exactly, Gotham and Titan 31. The guy hates to lose. That's what you want in your starting QB - an attitude that losing is unacceptable. Good for Vince Young; he may yet be a great NFL quarterback once his mechanics improve. Because he's got the right mentality for the job.

This dude isn't cut out to be an NFL QB. Kordell Stewart-like.

You really should take your meds first thing. You're a bit testy today. My oh my, how you read so much THAT I DIDN'T SAY into my comment. There is a reason why the model is the model, though.

Which is better to find a player to work within a system or to engineer a system around a player?

We don't have a system, it has to be the latter.

your right we dont have a system so we have to begin to mould the offense around Young. we cannot keep sitting here saying "he is the future" "hes the man" "hes gonna be our saviour" without doing something about it, what we cant do is have an offense like the Falcons, where their QB is gettin more yards than their running backs, but at the same time i think we should allow Vince to do what he did at Texas and run everything himself, yeah hes a young kid coming into an NFL team and he wont have that authority to be a leader until next season

I totally agree! I also think that Titans fans are being too impatient. He's not accustomed to losing, and neither are we. The guy hasn't played 3 games, and we've got folks already calling him a bust, a loser, etc. Instead of nit-picking him to death, I Just wish that people would just wait and see what the kid can do!

I was listening to radio this afternoon, and Eddie George was talking about the Oilers years, the 8-and-8 years, and how they got so sick of losing that they were determined not to do it anymore. Maybe the losing is what he needs to propel him.
