If he can just continue to work hard and improve a little every year, he can be a Donovan McNabb-type QB.
When healthy, McNabb is a top NFL QB who can beat you from the pocket as well as with his legs. I don't see Young as a guy who will ever be able to beat anyone from the pocket.

We'll never know until he gets better receivers than Justin Gage and McCareins.

maybe he needs Michael Lewis and Hank Baskett? this is one of the most ridiculous statements ever made around here. Young can be a fine nfl qback. even maybe as good as Michael Vick. but no way he ever becomes the top 5 QB that Mcnabb is. just not his style

I agree that Tenn is at fault for not getting better receiving options for VY, but did you see his interceptions on Sunday? I don't care if he has TO, Moss, and Reggie Wayne, those throws were AWFUL. I could have picked those passes off. He throws the kind of INTs that really show he doesn't have much of an ability to see the field and read NFL secondaries.

True. But Kerry Collins will is bring some stability to the position and he makes Tenn. offense better.

re: Vince Young 'hurting inside'

I don't think Vince Young is insane at all. I just think he needs a hug or a Teddy Bear. TO cried for Tony Romo last year, maybe one of his receivers should cry for him too. I'm going to have my Mom call my office tomorrow to let them know I'm hurting inside and out. Maybe I can score a couple of days off or a softer chair to sit in, cuz damn it I'm tired of being ridiculed too!

Matt Leinart just needs to invite him over for a pool party with some sorority girls from USC. It's not like either of them are going to play any time soon.

LOL! Could she score me a day or two off too?

I don't see VY becoming the passser that McNabb is either.

But then again, coming out of college a lot of people had serious doubts about McNabb ever developing into a quality passing QB and he's definitely beaten those odds.

Just an FYI, McNabb in his second season (and mind you he only started in 6 games in his first season) he threw for 3365 yards, and had 27 total tds to 13 ints. That something that Young's wildest wet dreams are made of.

Vince Young is no McNabb, never will be. He's a Michael Vick type player.

That's exactly right. HE's a Vick type player and that kind of QB technique doesnt work in the NFL. He's got tons of talent but its not the kind of talent that works well for an NFL QB. Looking at young NFL QBs, if its a college game I want a VY type QB but in a pro game a want a Matt Ryan type QB. Ryan's skill set is more suited to the NFL game.
