Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

Jimmy - Remember What You Thought 3 Years Ago

Just kinda researching some of the MCM archive articles from 2006 to see what people were saying about VY and Fisher.

Funny, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Do those guys still have the Fire Fisher website?

Funny line - "they don't won't to start him to soon to ruin his confidence", - VY.  Seems benching him since the first game of 2008 has pretty much done that!

Good times, good times.

Dear Jimmy,

Why have you foresaken me?

Still Yours,

Vince Young

Bring Back Vince Young!

A great quote from Jan 1, 2007 by our fearless leader:

We, as Titans fans, have a lot of things to be excited about for next season. We have just scratched the surface on VY. His ceiling is unlimited.

I will admit that I was on the VY bandwagon back then as well.

Potential. And we bought into the hype.

And that was pre 2007-2008.

It is pretty easy to figure out why things changed

If you really go back and read the stuff I wrote back then, I talked a lot about that “it” quality that Vince showed his rookie season. He lost that somewhere during his second season. His passion went away. He isn’t the leader he was then. Pretty simple.

"it" factor?

So you elevate your opinion of his performance off his 2nd year in the league?

It seemed the first year, you were more than willing to ride out the next ten years with him?

As far as losing the “it” factor somewhere in his second season, could you be more specific?

Elevate?

Just look at the difference in his numbers, and if you have the opportunity go back and watch the games. He looked like a completely different guy from year 1 to year 2. Any objective person can see that.

It seems like you just want to incite argument.

People are allowed to change their opinions after being more informed or if circumstances change.

Towards the End of VY's Second Season - Nov. 13th, 2007 - Does Fisher Trust Vince Young?

It seems evident to me that even towards the end of VY’s second season, Fisher and Chow had not designed their offense around VY.

What I am saying is that Fisher and Norm Chow need to compromise with the style of quarterback that Vince is. It is not very smart to take a quarterback at #3 overall and try to fit him something he isn’t. Let him do what he does.

@BonzosMontreaux – It’s part of a bigger discussion about whether VY should get an opportunity to start, whether Fisher has enough competence to utilize his talent correctly, and the future of the franchise.

Prophetic Statement from Bergman - Dec. 31st, 2007
Young could have come back in but Fisher knew that Collins was playing better, so he left Collins carry the load and it worked. Young was reported to be pouting about it.
  Young is immature and not capable, yes he has athletic skills, that does not make him the best one to lead the team though. He is self centered and egotistical and that is dangerous to any team. It will be extremely gratifying if Collins gets the nod this weekend. Young’s 9 TD passes and 17 pick are reason enough to start Collins. However I will probably be banned for stating this.

Feelin' the pain in Oakland

Young still isn’t as bad as JaMarcus Russell. And we got no Kerry Collins to…oh wait, we did have him…say, if you guys should be done with him, we’d probably like to have’em back.

I think we're done with him if you want him (KC)

I don’t understand why the Raiders let Garcia go?

Heck, I wish we had Garcia instead now.

Of course, the way the whole team is playing right now, even Manning or Brady couldn’t win much with this bunch…

I had to stop arguing with drunks, Steeler fans, and all other fools.
It was making my brick wall jealous...
