Vince Young Has a History of Being Really, Really Sensitive to Criticism
Quote:
Today, the NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports that this isn't the first time the Titans have had to deal with a dispirited, depressed and oversensitive Vince Young:
"There's a lot we don't know about Vince Young, but now there's more and more that we do know. We do know that in last season's wild-card loss to the Chargers, Young had a similar circumstance to the one he experienced during the opener.
He went in at halftime and basically had to be persuaded to go back out onto the field to play again against San Diego in the second half of that game -- very similar to the opener when he wanted to take himself out of the game.
You go back to his rookie year, they were scheduled to play the Philadelphia Eagles, and he missed a flight to Philadelphia. At that time, he acted as if it was the Titans fault that they left him behind, rather than it being his fault that he was late for the flight. He had to be persuaded to come to Philadelphia. He wanted the Titans to go on without him.
I think we have seen that Vince Young is really very vulnerable to criticism; he doesn't take to it very well like other NFL players ... I think there are some people who still think he's going to quit, others who think he will bounce back from this. But there are big questions about Vince Young moving forward.

In-studio analyst Marshall Faulk makes a good point: Young has never had to face criticism in his high school and college career, and this is something entirely new for him.

I'd perfer the Skins passed on this head job. Either he's often injured or he's faking injuries so he doesn't have to go back out on the field but either way I don't thing our coaching staff needs another problem to worry about like having to coax a QB to go back on the field. Plus if he does have insecurity issues then DC is not the place for him. McNabb was bood, Grossman was bood, JC was bood, .... Young will definitly not make it here after one game of the fans booing him. Better not even waist the money on him.
