Redskins @ Titans game thread

[SirClintonPortis]

McNabb has been underthrowing his WRs often this season. The pass to Moss today was also underthrown.

[TheSmurfs22]

This game was like all of our games this year, ugly. However I am glad it was an ugly win. HTTR!

What I'm hearing per NFLN about Vince Young and Jeff Fisher is pretty interesting. After Vince Young threw his jersey and shoulder pads into the stands, the team was in the locker room and instead of showering and staying for post game interviews Vince Young got dressed and was walking out of the room when Jeff Fisher called him out and asked if he was walking out on his teammates, and Vince Young allegedly (keyword in this sentence) replied that he's not walking out on his teammates, he's walking out on you, you meaning Jeff Fisher. Then he walked out of the locker room, Michael Griffin chased him but was unsuccesfull in trying to get him to come back, then Jeff Fisher is at the podium and announces Young won't be starting again, healthy or not.

If that's the case than VY will probably be out of Tennessee in the offseason, it's either him or Fisher and I highly doubt it'd be Fisher.

heard something to the same effect last night. granted there is no excuse for walking out on your team, what the hell was fisher thinking not putting young back in if he thought he could go? it's not like it was a concussion, it looked like a sprained thumb

A sprained thumb that's going to require surgery and will keep him out the rest of the year.

Can't defend VY's behavior at all yesterday. The guy needs to grow up already.

NFLN said torn thumb tendon last night.


I've actually had that SAME injury...painful one. My tendon was ripped completely in half...could not move my thumb. It could not be repaired (one they're torn in half, they're done, re-attachments can be done though. I had to have that joint (one right at the web part of the thumb) fused with 2 screws. Now it's fine, but it was a long healing process. Your other surrounding joints adapt to make up for the loss of mobility in that one. There are 3 joints in your thumb...one that moves your tip, one by the webbing and the one no one thinks about down near your wrist. The middle one is the one involved.

But he's done for the year for sure.

That's going to turn out to be an interesting issue because I think ownership really want's Young to be the guy.

[SolidSnake84]

Bud Adams, despite mostly being an idiot, does want whats best for his team, and rest assured he will not be happy with Vince Young's actions this time. Young's offenses get worse and worse each time, and this might be his swan song for his time in Tennessee.

Adams has alot of respect for Fisher. I suspect he backs his decision this time.

[SmootSmack]

Not sure it was in Young's best interest to egg on the crowd when they booed him. He needs to have thicker skin

[SmootSmack]

According to Fisher (if I recall correctly), he says Young never told him he was ok and ready to come back in

[LavaRnChad]

Young is slowly but surely working his way out of the NFL. He is a cancer to the Titans and it showed. On another note, anybody else surprised at how undisciplened the Titans looked out there? I don't recall a Fisher led team committing that many stupid penalties in a game before. Then again I have only seen them play a couple of games this year.

So what was the deal with VY and why has he been benched? If your going to say because he is black please do not respond.

lol...good article

Titans' Young goes out with a temper tantrum - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

[MTK]

Let me google that for you

[Monkeydad]

So what's this I hear about Vince Young throwing his pads into the stands at some fans when he got pulled? Later last night I saw a crawl on the bottom of another network..."Coach Fisher says Vince Young is done as a starter whether he's hurt or not".

I was outside grilling for the 3rd and most of the 4th quarter so I came back to see some mystery QB playing.
