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.

Breaking down why to not break down the playoffs

November 19th, 2009 by Spizz | 1 Comment | Filed in Playoffs, Tennessee Titans

000000;">We’re ten weeks into the season and playoff talk has officially begun. We’re starting to see some speculation as to whether or not the Titans could win out and steal a wild card spot. Michael Strahan says that a post-season appearance for us isn’t not a possibility, and he knows a thing or two about things on TV with an outside chance of success (zing!). But do the Titans really have a shot at the playoffs? Fuck if I know.

Fox exec somewhere: Now take this, and at a parapalegic brother! Its gold!

Fox exec somewhere: "Now take this, and add a parapalegic brother! It's comedy gold!"

000000;">Let’s break this down. At this point, it’s reasonably safe (and by “reasonably safe” I mean “still wild speculation”) to assume that New England and Indianapolis will win the AFC East and South, respectively. Barring some sort of monumental implosion, which you can never rule out with a team God hates, Cincinnati will probably win the AFC North (they’ve already swept both of the real teams in their division their remaining games include Oakland, Cleveland, Detroit, and Kansas City). The AFC West is still a toss up between Denver and Whale’s Vagina, so that puts the wild card picture a little something like this:

Posse Review: Titans vs. Bills Week 10

November 16th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 2 Comments | Filed in Posse Review

3 in a row. That’s right. The Tennessee Titans have proven to be a team of streaks. Last year, the Titans went 10-0. Then after the Steelers victory last year they lost 8 in a row. Now they have won 3 in a row. Lets hope it continues.

Washington. Washington. 620 scoring touchdowns for fun.

Washington. Washington. 6'20 scoring touchdowns for fun.

Reasons Why the Titans Won

  • Vince Young let it fly: It was obvious that early in the game the Bills were brining in 8-9 defenders into the box to try to stop Chris Johnson. While it didn’t work overall, it worked in forcing the Titans offense into some long down-and-distances. Instead of running a shotgun draw play with CJ, the Titans typical response to long down-and-distance situations, Heimerdinger let Vince throw it. And it worked. Vince converted several early 3rd downs, and then also hit Kenny Britt for a deep bomb. He also connected with Washington on a Touchdown pass. Vince ended up throwing one interception, but one is not disastrous, and he couldn’t remain perfect forever. He recovered well after that too, and continued to throw the ball with confidence. Of all three games, I am most impressed with this one from good ole Vince. With the way the defense was giving up chunks of yardage early, Vince’s play in the passing game kept the Titans ahead and kept the pressure on the Bills to keep scoring. Eventually, the Bills couldn’t keep up.
