Yahoo! Sports -- 14 --
ESPN 12 19 Coaches should ask VY to throw like that weekly.(Kuharsky)

USA Today 15 19 --
CBS Sports 15 16 Winning at Dallas sets up a big road game at Jacksonville next Monday. The winner will stay atop the AFC South.
SB Nation 11 18 Interesting quarterback performance on Sunday in the Cowboys victory. 12-of-25 for 173 yards and a pair of scores for Vince Young. Not a bad day when you have a solid rushing attack to support you.
Fox Sports 10 15 All QB Vince Young has to do is not turn the ball over and the Titans have a realistic chance to win any game. While RB Chris Johnson isn't headed for last year's unbelievable rushing numbers, he's still the foundation of their offense.

SI.com -- -- --
Fanhouse.com 8 17 As the Texans slipped back to the pack, Tennessee made a statement in Dallas, upsetting the Cowboys. Suddenly, the Titans are right in the AFC South mix. Any team with Chris Johnson running the football has to be taken seriously.

What if Sports 6 7 --
MMQB 8 N/A When Vince Young is moving the offense, this is a team capable of winning anywhere. We saw another example of that in Dallas Sunday.

Well

I’ll make my kool-aid, And Drink it too.
lol, but if we can keep this formula for success up, and lower the opposing teams pass yardage, we’re good!

Maybe not unbeatable,

But it will be tough to beat us. Vince could’ve done way better but we still beat a really really good team. I’m so excited for our team right now!

NFL POWER RANKINGS WEEK 6

The Giants crushed the Texans as the duo of Hakeem Nicks and Steve Smith had a field day. New Orleans looked poor all season and they lost again, this time for the Arizona Cardinals. The Chargers are struggling to win road games as they lost the Raiders. NFL POWER RANKINGS WEEK 6 http://usspost.com/nfl-power-rankings-week-6-19531/

Where's the Kool-Aid?

I’ll drink it. Someone pass it over.

"Do the Titans have a miracle left in them in what has been a magical season to this point? If they do, they need it now. Christie kicks it high and short. Gonna be fielded by Lorenzo Neal at the 25; he dishes it back to Wycheck; he throws it across the field to Dyson. 30, 40, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, endzone...touchdown, Titans! There are no flags on the field! It's a miracle! Tennessee has pulled a miracle! A miracle for the Titans!"

Looks like

Most power rankings are MIA so far this week. They all sad Favre is throwing away games again?

instead of waiting for them and posting it on Wednesdays.

Is funny

How much they overlook the change in offensive philosophy and how by VY throwing more and early in the game improved our chances for the win.

It’s hard to argue with that.

Nearly 1000 yrds in two games?

That’s nuts!!! I hope our D keeps getting those crucial turnovers in the redzone…

He did. :D

turnovers… stops, whatever… I don’t really care how many yards the other team gets as long as they don’t get points to match.

There was some talk in another of the MCM blogs...

…about how even though we’ve given up all these yards through the air, we’re 7th in the league in opposing QB pass percentage. And we’re still #1 in sacks.

I think this team is just fine against the pass, especially when we’re pressuring the QB. Our stats will calm down after we get away from the Giants, Broncos, and Cowboys of the world, who don’t mind airing it out 50 times a game.

We give up the big play

If we can stop the big play, those yards wouldnt be there.

That was me

I was dead wrong. Was reading it backwards ;-). See below.

Haha.

Well, now I feel like an idiot.

We're

22nd in terms of both passes over 20 and over 40 allowed. So not bottom of the barrel, but not great. YPG allowed we’re 27th. percentage allowed 26th – allowing 66% of attempts to be completed.

But we’re sacking the crap out of people, and in the top third in number of interceptions. Course, there are only two other teams that have seen more passes from opposing teams – The redskins and the texans. It’s a weird year pass defense-wise.

I'm not a Vince Young fanboy. I'm a Vince Young athletic supporter. No, wait.
