Four possible scenarios:

1. He's trying to get a raise from the Titans so that he'll have more reasons to remain the face of the team.
2. He doesn't want to have to pay back all of his signing bonus and get caught up in an ugly situation (Mike Vick, Ricky Williams, etc.) so he'll play out the five years he has left in Tennesse and that'll be it.
3. He's still a little immature and since he won the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award, he didn't know how to cope with all the appearances for Madden and the interviews requests, etc.
4. He's part of the 2% or so of NFLers who actually don't care about money moreso what really makes them happy.

This guy is dumb. He failed the wonderlic test badly.

Yeah, I've seen a bunch of interviews of him and he's really not a smart person.

Dude played in the NFL relized it sucked and wanted out... Went to talk to his agent, and his agent said

"look here you dumb fuck you'll lose that 25 guranteed million that I worked so hard to get for you, suck it up and go out a play"


Kind of makes you wonder with the bad year he had last year.

I think his wonderlic score was 6.

This just shows me that he's not gonna be better than he is. He's a bad passer to start, and he doesn't like hard things. Getting better and becoming an even mediocre passer is gonna prove itself to be too hard for a mentally weak QB.

I'm was just thinking about how his most memorable wins came and immediately I thought of Michael Vick. They're similar in that when the game is on the line, or maybe for no good reason at all, they don't trust anybody except themselves and they'll tuck the ball under their shoulder and run like hell.

Vick was pretty much a running back in Atlanta and I think that Young, if he doesn't correct this mistake, will be too. Remember the Rose Bowl in 2006 when Vince scrambled 19 yards into the endzone on 4th and 2 to put Texas in the drivers seat with like 15 seconds on the clock? Remember the first game he ever played in Houston, against his hometown Texans and he again ran the ball into endzone from 35 yards out in overtime?

He needs to be more like Donavan McNabb who uses his speed come out of a potential sack and scramble only when he has to.

I mean if he has 35 yards of opening I dont see a problem...

Haha great, problem is he's slower than Vick, but he's stronger than Vick. Worse passer is kind of a toss up right now

But that's my point. Even when there isn't an opening and there's a receiver open, he still takes off.

They drafted him 3rd overall to run the ball. God gave you speed and a great arm you have to use it.... And in all fairness to Vick, I would run to rather then throw the ball the recivers he had.

Nah, you draft a RB third if you want someone to run the ball, you draft a running QB third overall if you think he can becomae a great passer along with good mobility. And in all fairness to Vick's receivers, Vick had no idea what touch was, you can throw all the bullet passes you want if you can't hit the broad side of a barn. Most years Vick's receivers did not have a high percentage of drops, and guys like Brady and McNabb had guys dropping a considerably higher percetage of passes. Why Vick's receivers get thrown under the bus for the shitshow of a QB they had to deal with, I dunno.
