It looks like the Titans have given up on Vince Young.

IT"S ABOUT TIME$>>>IMO

Too many ups/downs, injuries, not to mention this guy(kid) is a basket case of immaturity, loss of players and coaches who says he has to go.

Looks like Cutler is the Golden goose from that draft class!!

Regarding Vince Young, I thought that was a bad match of, not to liken Bud Adams to Daniel Snyder generally speaking, but of Snyder-esque proportions.  That very year they brought in Norm Chow from USC, who just played Texas and Young for the National Championship, to be their offensive coordinator. [smiley=dunce.gif] Leinart, who had great success under Chow, evidence that he fit his system, something that you could surmise Young would not, not that Leinart would have been the answer, but, could have been gotten much cheaper.  This had owner interference written all over it, and like almost everything Snyder does it went against the makeup and chemistry of the team and coaching staff.

...

Regarding Fisher, from "The REAL Feed":

I heard an interesting nugget regarding Jeff Fisher the other day that really made me pause and think.  So I verified the information my self.......and it is true:

http://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/FishJe0.htm



Jeff Fisher gets all the hype of being a great coach.....did you know he only has 6 WINNING seasons in 16.5 years of being a head coach?   Why is he so regarded as a great coach?
