Titans QB Vince Young spoke to the news media today and made the kind of statements that showed he is a mature young man and a tough competitor -- two of the best qualities for an NFL player.
I also like that he is a momma's boy. I'm one, too, and proud of it.
His responses also showed he sure didn't deserve the kind of negative comments directed at him by NewsChannel 5 sportscaster Hopes Hines earlier this week.
I do not understand coach Jeff Fisher saying that Young has to earn his job back. But I can tell you that Fisher will be begging for Young to return now that NFL defenses will be preparing all week for Kerry Collins by dropping an extra linebacker or defensive back into pass coverage or on general defense with an extra tackle to stop the run.
Young has required defenses to adjust for his running ability that comes with his formidable arm. Collins didn't get re-signed by the Giants for nothing. Defenses figured out how to stop him. Look for the Bengals to do the same this Sunday, putting more stress on the Titans' great defense.
Hang in there, Vince. We your fans are still rooting for you and have been amazed at your talents. Good things come to all who wait, scripture tells us. I believe it rings true on the football field, too. And with you.
