Vince Young

Dr.Knowitall · Dec 24, 2006

Will become the best 2-way Quarterback ever. He is becoming just as dangerous in the pros as he became in college. He will become the Michael Jordan of the N.F.L. and become unstopable because he CAN throw the football. Something the other running Quarterbacks can't do.

How good will he become?

To me he will end up in the top 3 all time.

Fishhead · Dec 24, 2006

Told posters this weeks ago(not top 3 of all-time) that this kid is going to be one very good NFL QB and was somewhat laughed at.

HPark1 · Dec 24, 2006

He's last in the league in completion percentage.

Young will do fine but the class of the draft will be Cutler.

Dr.Knowitall · Dec 24, 2006

He is the running Quarterback that everyone has been waiting for. For the last 20 years all these horrible running QBs we were force to watch and be told these guys are good. Well now we have a running QB who is a Quarterback.

It's about time and now we will see how good a running QB is who can actually throw the football like a Quarterback should and when a Quarterback should throw the football.

Vince Young is this guy.

I was probably one of the ones laughing. I am still not sold on this guy but WOW is he making play after play. Have to give the kid props so far. He has really done an incredible job.

The one benefit he has over many of the other running QBs that played in the league is he has probably the best offensive mind in football as the OC. Norm Chow is a mastermind and will find ways to maximize his abilities.

Dr.Knowitall · Dec 24, 2006

He has coaching behind him also as clipjoint pointed out. What happens when Vince Young learns the game? His talent running is just as good as Vick and Bush. He is such a threat because you simply can not defend the run by Young because he will in time pick you apart passing the football if you key on him. Something the other QBs don't have because in reality NONE of them can throw the football very good.

This guy can pick out a receiver and throw the football and not have to run it all the time. The others are horrible at this and that's why most defenses will force most of them to beat them passing and they all fail.

Not this guy! Wait another year or 2!

It's one thing to say he'll be a great QB in the NFL and have a great career...

it's quite another to predict he'll go down as one of the top 3 QBs in the history of the league after less than one season.

Go write for ESPN.com or something, take the sensationalistic bullshit elsewhere.

VY is the fucking man, though. Hope he does well for years.

Timetopay · Dec 24, 2006

Randall Cunningham could throw. We will be talking about him like him or Vick in 3 years guaranteed.

Antonioli · Dec 24, 2006

When was the last rookie did you think was this good in their rookie season?

Dr.Knowitall · Dec 24, 2006

No one!

Reason is because he can run like Eric Dickerson and if he played running back all his life, I bet he would be another Eric Dickerson. On top of that he can throw a football and has the talent to play QB.

He will learn the game over the next couple of years and become the most dangerous QB we have ever seen.

I have been around a long time and know the odds are he won't become even 1 of the best 50 all-time QBs. But NOBODY has ever combined the running ability and passing ability together. No one!

And he has football presence! He has amazing feel for the game. Kind of like Wayne Gretzky did in hockey. He sees the whole field right in front of him like no one else.

Yes I do think he will become 1 of the greatest of all time because of the talent he has. He is a can't miss talent and will only get better. Alot better.

SkinsRaj28 · Dec 24, 2006

People said the same thing of Michael Vick's talent. Vick had comparable talent coming out of Tech. Look what happened to him.

I think Young will fare much better than Vick, but it's no guarantee. And to predict top-3 of ALL-TIME is just foolish.

A little early to put him in that group in my opinion

Railbird · Dec 24, 2006

helps that he has Norm Chow, makes a boring leauge somewhat exciting.

Fishhead · Dec 24, 2006

Last Play: 3-9-BUF 29(11:22) V.Young pass deep middle to B.Jones for 29 yards, TOUCHDOWN

mrkwik · Dec 24, 2006

Wont make the top 10

lander · Dec 24, 2006

Maybe top 10 illiterate QBs of all time.

BuzzRavanaugh · Dec 24, 2006

He cannot throw it a lick-- just a winner that is all.

Railbird talks about how its not all that special to be an NFL QB and he is right. The whole league is a copy cat league -- Young gives some teams some different things to look at, they probably figure him out over the summer.

Still having a great year and he doesn't lose games for his team.

why didnt Buffalo try a 45 yd. FG on 4th and 5 at the Tenn 28?

this is my home team, so im speaking sort of as a Homer..

i cant tell you the excitement that Young as well as this titan team is causing........ they will probably miss the playoffs but i can assure you, the other AFC teams do not want them in...........

its been a joy to watch them the last 8 games or so.......... what they lack in talent (and they are not the most talented team), they make up for in desire and enthusiasm....... and its not just Young......... he got them going and now they are all feeding off this......
