Post Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

NASHVILLE, TENN. — If Vince Young is any indication, cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones may have used up the patience of his Tennessee Titans teammates.

Young was asked during a minicamp session Thursday if he was concerned about Jones, who has been told to turn himself in to Las Vegas authorities to face two felony charges.

"We love him a whole lot, but we feel like he don't care about us right now," Young said.

The quarterback said he hasn't talked to Jones but echoed Jeff Fisher's comments that the charges are Jones' issue to handle.

Re: Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

well i guess now its been set in stone, it doesnt look like Pacman is going to be welcome back in Tennessee, which is a shame becuase hes a good player and i would have liked to have him back for his returning ability.

i suppose Vince isnt really ripping into him about the whole thing but its sad becuase he seems genuinely upset about the whole situation more than angry, so now that none of his team mates want him back is there a likelyhood that the front office will say "well no one on the team wants him here so lets cup him" i mean if they were going to cut him surely it would have happened but now...right

Re: Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

i agree with vy my patience has ran out about a month or so already.alex will probably disagree with me on this but being a good football player isnt just being good on the feild and beleive it or not they are human beings like us so the person on the feild should be the same person off the field and a player isnt good unless they play football games pacman hasnt even played a season with out getting some kind of suspension so i think we should get rid of him and let him screw some other team over for once.

Re: Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

ok let me set the record straight on this one, im a fan of Pacman Jones the football player, in terms of Pacman Jones the man, i wouldnt spit on him if he was on fire.

i defend him because at the moment he is a Titan player and i defend my own, i dont excuse his behaviour off the field in any way, i just base my arguments on the evidence presented to me. i defended him in terms of the last situation because there was no evidence to show that he did it and yet people went on to call him a thug and say this and that.

so like i said before im a fan of Pacman the player but not Pacman the person

but yeah Vince is right hes done to much now its just getting tiering

Re: Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

I think the point Young is trying to make more than anything here is that he's telling Pacman - look, you can't try to keep to the straight and narrow and avoid trouble (and strip clubs) for the good of the team? Winning in the NFL is and always has been equal parts talent and sacrifice. We've already discussed how much Young is maturing as a leader, and this further proves it to me. No matter how good a player is, if he isn't willing to sacrifice his own selfish desires for the good of the team, those teammates aren't gonna want him around. The comments by Fisher and now Young tell me this team is more than ready to move on without Jones.

Re: Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

i also think what Young is trying to say is that it is to much of a flight risk having someone like Pacman on the team, like i said before he is a good player and last year was an example of what i mean. he was progressing as a CB and as a return man and then out of the blue they team suspended him and they had to shift around personel in a week to get used to not having him around, i mean if he was a second string guy or a backup QB it wouldnt be so bad but he was the teams primary return man and the first choice DB

Re: Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

VY wasnt ripping on pacman, he was just saying he was dissapointed that he had chosen his friends and strip clubs over his titans family and career, then he just added fishers remarks that the team has moved on..

Re: Vince Young rips Pacman Jones

I wouldn't say VY 'ripped' on Pac Man but he sure didn't sound like he was favorable towards him. Coming from the franchise player, I can feel what must be a whole lot of confusion and dissapointment. Jones is a great player but his personal life is such a mess, it can only detract from the team.

And no matter what, I doubt Jones plays another game in the NFL anyway.

Hey when you QB and coach are saying you just don't care for the team...your career there is over...don't see the Pacman being part of the Titan's future...I see a CFL career if that in his future.
