Tennessee Titans Morning Links: This Edition Could Have Just Been One Link Edition

Vince Young should be very happy that he got an extra week before Adams laid down the law.

Word has come down from the mount: Bud Adams wants Vince Young to start immediately. Now the question is, why did the Tennessean sit on this for a full week:

Following the 59-0 loss to the Patriots on Oct. 18 that dropped the Titans to 0-6, Adams told The Tennessean he'd made Coach Jeff Fisher aware of his desire to see Young play.

In the past week the 86-year-old owner has been more direct, according to sources familiar with the situation. Adams wants the change now.

Anyone else thinking the local media just kowtowed to Fisher again like they did the last time Bud demanded Vince start over Kerry?

Jim Wyatt agrees with almost everyone here: it's time to start Kenny Britt over the suddenly drop-addicted Justin Gage.

It's looking like both Cortland Finnegan and Vinny Fuller will be back on Sunday, which should give the secondary at least a fighting chance to get back on track for the first time this season.

Mike Keith of Titans Radio takes a look at how our younger guys are playing so far.

Congratulations to Coach Fisher's son Brandon, who is among the semifinalists for the National Football Foundation's scholar-athelete award.

One thing will happen if Vince starts

Fans will be reminded just how bad VY can be if given an entire game to showcase his ‘talents’.

There will be throws off of his back foot, using that beautiful 3/4 delivery of his which effectively takes away his height advantage. There will be passes behind and in front of receivers. There will be the hanging of his head after poor plays. Everyone will be able to see what some Titans fans, Fisher and the coaching staff already knows- VY does not have what it takes to be a starting QB in the NFL.

Hopefully this will quiet all the VY supporters, but I doubt it.

Go Titans, play for pride and win one!

Ball, oskie, cover, block, cut and slice, pursue and gang tackle... for this is the WINNING EDGE.

ive almost forgot what that felt like, especially with collins under center, shake things up and see what happens. collins is settling at the bottom.

your joke makes no sense. Vince hasn't won a game since 2007.

How long has the "countdown" been set to the draft?

Am I just slow noticing that, or is it new?

It's been that since

the 59-0 loss
