I’m Drinking the Kool Aid: Evaluating Vince Young’s play against the Texans

November 24th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in Tennessee Titans

Oh yeah. I’m in (for now). We do NOT need to draft a QB. Really, quickly though, i wanted to show you a good article written by Matt Bowen of the National Football Post. He says here that he taking a mea culpa on his views of Vince Young, and he even talks about the role of the Option and other creative offenses in the NFL. Good read.

Vince Young directing traffic on one of his many runs

Impressed with:

  • Command of the offense: Time to break out the cliches. His poise was great! He was a field general!! Gen. Vince “Stonewall” Young!! He’s just a winner!! He has “IT”! Okay I’m done. But in all seriousness, his command of the offense was AWESOME. He read the defense perfectly several times pre-snap. He made adjustments. he directed the players. He was decisive when to run. He knew where everybody was supposed to be. He was great. I was really, really impressed.
  • His accuracy: He had a couple of bad throws. It happens. But for the most part, his throws were on target and to the right receiver.
  • His humility: It’s good to see him not acting like a rock star. Some people may be annoyed by coach speak. I LOOOVE it. Shows he knows the media is stupid and if he says what he’s supposed to, they’ll build his legend for him. I totally fall for it too. KEEP IT GOING VINCE!
  • His suit: That was a bad ass suit. I want it…

Remaining Concerns:

  • Keep doing it: Keep it up. That’s all I ask.

I give his performace an A. Loved it. He played really, really well. Did all he had to, rarely made a misread. A baby. That’s right.

I am totally drinking the Kool Aid.

Posse Review: Titans vs. Texans Week 11 MNF

November 24th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in Posse Review

VIIIIIICTOOOORRRRRYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!

After listening to Texans fans talk the whole week and discuss how good their team is and how they’re ready to make the next step and go to the playoffs blah blah blah… The Titans crushed them. Humiliated them on National Television. It was GLORIOUS!

Vince Young has completely matured. Heck, check out this suit:

THAT is the suit of a winner

THAT is the suit of a winner

What a mature suit. A winner. A Quaterback.

Reasons Why the Titans Won

  • Bend but don’t Break: Our defense gave up a lot of passing yards. 305 of them. But they only let Houston score 17 points. They did what they had to do, and got the stops they needed to.
  • Defensive Line: The young guys have picked up the mantle. Haye, Hayes, Marks, Brown, Vickerson, Ford, and even Vandenbosch were getting in on the act. This was with Jason Jones out. The D-Line is key to this team, and it looks like they’ve figured out that it’s on them. Tony Brown is a BEAST. They are the key to our defense.
  • Control the Clock: The offense only scored 20 points, but I feel like they played much better than when they played the 1st game. They controlled the clock. Even when they didn’t score, they would pick up a couple 1st downs to flip field position. The offense was big.
  • Vince Young: I will once again be doing my weekly post on his play, so I will keep this to one sentence. His command of the offense is really, really impressive.
  • Chris Johnson: The guy continues to impress every week. He has turned into a true feature back. He got all the tough yards when they needed it. The Texans “contained” him to 5.2 yards a carry. Yeah, I’ll take it. What a beast.
  • Texans Miscues: Missed kicks. Steve Slaton’s drops. Not involving Andre Johnson, the one player the Titans have NO answer for, late in the game. Coaching miscues, player miscues, kicking miscues, they all happened. It’s why the Texans are the Texans. And it helped us win.

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL!!! TITANS VS TEXANS!! ARE YOU READY!?!?!

November 23rd, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 1 Comment | Filed in AFC South

The game of hope. If we win this, people can say the “P” word with a little, just a little, more credibility. That’s nice and all, but I am a total realist. So my view is more like this: I just want to pop the Texans little bubble.

See, Texans fans are still holding on to the belief that they’re a good team. They hold the belief that they’re an arch-rival to us. They believe that by beating us last time we played, their team proved they’re good and we’re bad.

All of that can come crashing down tonight if the Titans crush them in this game.

2009 Tennessee Titans = Hope Killers. For once, it’d be nice to apply that title to the other team.

Posse Preview: Titans vs. Texans Week 11 – The Battle of the Johnsons

November 23rd, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 4 Comments | Filed in Posse Preview

Ah yes. The Texans. A team I have come to hate more and more. So here we are, in roles I would’ve never predicted before the season. The Titans have a chance to play spoilers to the Texans playoff hopes. I know at 5-5 they wouldn’t technically be out of it, but that’d put them on the path to 8-8, which is where they always end up. Also, 8-8 isn’t making it to the playoffs this year. Alright, so lets preview this sucker.

Id love to see CJ crack 200 yards on MNF

I'd love to see CJ crack 200 yards on MNF

Strengths for the Titans

  • CHRIS JOHNSON: I wouldn’t be surprised to see this turn into the “Chris Johnson Show” as he breaks 200 yards on national TV and he becomes a national sensation.
  • Pass Rush: It’s back. And we’ll ne ed it.
  • Field Goal Kicking: It might matter in this game. Kris Brown vs. Indy, anyone?

Weaknesses for the Titans

  • Coverage: If the pass rush doesn’t get there, it will get painful. In a hurry. It would help if Griffin didn’t take off in a full sprint at the line of scrimmage every play action.
  • Playing from behind: This team is not built to get in a shootout with the Texans, and it could turn into that in a hurry.
  • Andre Johnson: Scary…
