Vince Young? He gone.

Wow, I expected the owner to side with the non-franchise quarterback than the longtime coach with the way he was wetting himself over Young.

So do the Titans go after McNabb or Kolb or someone like that or draft a guy... and let Collins teach him for a year?
 
^I think it looks beautiful...assuming he keeps throwing TDs to rookie tight ends and guys who might be 5'9" (I'm 5'9") in the playoffs.

Also, keep the run game going Benny and Woody!
 
Vince Young? He gone.

I saw that. My first reaction was that must have been one hell of a meeting between Adams and Fisher, because yesterday it seemed clear-cut that Young was going to stay.

My second reaction was that it was pretty stupid of the Titans to come out and say that they were going to get rid of Young, because that annihilated any little trade value he would have had left. (Even a conditional sixth-round pick or something would have been better than nothing.)

At this point, I'm guessing that Vince Young will be in a mental institution by the end of the year.

Excepting those of us who actually live in New England and have been supporting them even before they became good. :shifty:

Most of the Manchester United/Real Madrid types are Dallas Cowboys fans, anyway.

I like Cowboys because they won the first entire game I watched, but sure, there probably are those too.

I hear Kyle Orton's probably going to be available.

I don't even have to open this to know what it says. :lol:
 
Looks like it's not 'if' but 'when' Harbaugh is going to be announced as the Dolphins new coach. He's going to make somewhere between $7 and $8 million a year.
 
$7-8 million (more than any NFL coach ever, IIRC) for an unproven head coach coming out of the college ranks? Madness.
 
^^
Really? Considering how much some of the players earn that doesn't strike me as excessive at all. If I owned a team, head coach is a position I would not hesitate to dump a lot of money into if necessary to get the guy I want.

And there was much rejoicing! :techman: Such a sad ending for what looked to be a promising year, too.

Oh no! Vince doesn't deserve that old seamonster! :lol:

I'd actually be very happy with this.

If it were a coach with a proven history of success in the NFL, like, say, Bill Cowher, then I could understand it. But not for a guy who's never been a head coach in the NFL. Success in college does not always translate to success in the NFL.

And remember, the Dolphins got burned by Nick Saban four years ago.
 
Andrew Luck is remaining at Stanford another year... just blew-up the Carolina Panthers draft board. :lol:
 
Dumb though, if you're the obvious #1 draft pick, which it seems he is (I don't follow college at all), ya leave right then and there... it's not like your value can really go up.

I guess there is the looming problem of the lockout... I'm not sure how that affects this year's draft class... but coming out of the draft still seems like safer money to me.

Perhaps he's simply happy there and wants to get his degree?
 
Andrew Luck wants to get his degree. I don't blame him; I'd want to do the same if I were going to graduate from one of the best colleges in the world. And it's not like he needs the money, his family's loaded. His father is a former NFL quarterback, former president/general manager of the Houston Dynamo, and current athletic director at West Virginia.
