Ahhhhh...makes perfect sense, then. I thought you were a Pittsburgh fan supporting the Titans.
That's cool, though...I wish we had some pop warner football here in my town, but there's a large city about 45 minutes away who have a league that plays 10 games a year, and I found out we could join one of those teams, so I'll just drive my boys back and forth so they can begin the process of becoming NFL players.
Although my oldest (3) has really taken an interest in boxing/fighting...so that's something I'm seriously thinking of persuing.
Anyways...go Richmond Steelers!

The only part I'd question about your post is the ''VY is a proven winner"...really? College football isn't the same as the NFL. Rex Grossman was a proven winner. So was Danny Weurfel (sp?). So was Chris Weinke. Eric Couch. Jason White. And I can't forget about Gino Torretta.
On this level, he isn't a ''proven winner''...

RR-I hear what ure sayin....and sho' nuff, he has a lot to prove....however, u know and I know(if u watched the Rose Bowl game)...it was VY who took that team on his back/shoulders, however u wanna describe it...he carried that team to victory and showed a lot of heart...his flame has definetly flickered, I just think it needs 2 be fanned so he can show what he's capable of....U can't blame his performance just on personnel...but he hasn't played this year, correct? I'd like to see how this teams offense would perform with him under centre....right now, he's unstable, so thats what it is....but he's still worth the shot IMO....mamas boy or no
I understand the whole Rose Bowl game performance; I watched it, and it was one of my favorite games of all time. And yes, it was Vince who won that game, but like I said, college success doesn't = NFL success. Look at the list of names I gave you, and look at their college careers, and see how it translated into NFL success. I'm not counting Vince out, but I don't see him as ever being an elite QB in this league.
well ill add you to the list of many people that just dont think VY is going to be an elite QB....if anyone expected him to be Manning...Favre..Brady.....then thats there own fault.....
VY will improve when the weapons around him improve...its just THAT simple.....how much he will improve is yet to be seen
if he cuts down on mistakes i would have NO problem with him playing the way he did his rookie year......we had drew bennett and bobby wade as our starting wideouts that year....and had no one better since.....put a GOOD wideout in there and his number will be even better.....

right now i would rather have Cutler over Young easy....id take Young over Matt easy
these guys are three years into the leauge.....NOTHING is written on their careers yet....other then a couple years of stats...
how quick were people to oust Manning after being such a "loser"....some players take time to devolp...some dont....

The difference between even Eli Manning and Vince Young is that Eli had the mechanics; Vince doesn't. Vince needed to change almost his entire throwing technique, because that side-arm bullshit won't cut it in the NFL. Eli just had some bad luck to go along with his weak mental state; he's still an average QB, IMO, but he's improving. Vince has a lot farther to go than him. Vince is a great athlete that was stuck into a QB role; I don't see how you could think he's going to be an elite QB at any point in his career, but that's your opinion.
Before this season, I did. I like Matt's potential; I think he has all the right tools, but for some reason, he's a bonehead. Maybe it's all that partying he does (lol). I still would have rather drafted him or Cutler over Huff in that draft; then we wouldn't have had to draft a QB in last year's draft.
i think VY has improved too....while the help around him as decreased....
people tend to forget that our solidfided number 1 wideout was a guy who wasnt even activated to play on the BEARS......that team doesnt scream solid WR depth....so its not like Gage was behind a lot of great players....he couldnt make the depth chart on the BEARs.....
