The penalty(which was in the first half) maybe, but VY did not fumble. He lateraled it to a lineman while being sacked, our offensive lineman fumbled.

If you are saying that the Titans should have won then I will agree with you.

VY was the reason the Titans were in the game that late. The Colts special teams and red zone offense made that game about 15 points closer than it should've been. We were obviously the better team, but our mistakes almost cost us the game. Good to see we overcame them, but we have to shore that up before we start facing top-tier teams.

Impressed with VY's game today. He still has a way to go to become a complete player, but he's a damn good leader. But, was it just me, or were the Titans kind of dirty? Maybe I'm just being a homer. Let's put the kibosh on VY costing his team the game, though. Be realistic.

That the blog author has THAT to say after the game.

If Brandon Jones catches that VY pass, the Titans get a shot at a game-winning field goal.

Vince Young played imperfectly, but damn well. It's really sad that the lead to this post is about how Vince somehow cost his team the game.

I said earlier in the week, and I'll say it again - nothing changes over here. And never will.

Just a note to any Titans fans who wander in here and wonder what's going on.

have been this close..

Our offense's lack of execution in the red zone and Vinatieri having an off day could have cost us this game.

Still.. I will the Titans props..they played well enough to steal it from us.

but lucky win.

In week 17. Excited to see what kind of backwards analysis you're offering then.

He played well. He kept his team in the game. The Colts should have won this game by 20. Their offense left at least 16 points on the field today. I'm thrilled they hung on and won, but they have some things they need to work on. Dropped passes, miscommunications, overthrown passes, missed blocks, and defense had some issues with biting on fakes/too large cushions in the secondary. And our two backup outside LBs didn't impress.

Good, solid win, but we let Titans hang around when they didn't deserve to be in it. VY made some good plays, made some mistakes. But without him the Titans are a bad, bad offensive team. I don't like the guy either. He talked crap the whole game,but he's a good player. Not a good passer, but a good player.

My God, the man had 11 tackles and 2.5 SACKS today! 2.5 sacks! Most safeties are lucky to get 4 sacks all year and he racked up 2.5 today while throwing in 11 tackles, 7 solo. If the Colts defense can secure a top-15 ranking and he can stay healthy I don't see how he doesn't make a run at defensive player of the year. He's amazing.

it was his game.

Even he got juked out by Vince Young once--Young is a hell of a player. He is a slick runner, but I don't think it's a good way to stay healthy. That time he wouldn't go down with 9 Colts on him, I though Brocks shoe went through his facemask. He's going to have to learn to take a career saving slide. He refuses to give up, which is a good personality for a defensive player, but not a quarterback.

I thought the Titans would be tough against the Colts offense--because they always are. The Colts defense did great considering two starting linebackers were out. The game came out the way it was supposed to.

Houston's going to be tough too. And they are kind of an unknown quantity now.

That was a great game between two great teams.  Manning was brilliant as usual.  I think that was the toughest effort from an opposing team that we are likely to see this year.  We could still get beat later on if we don't come to play mentally ready but we had to play our best to beat the Titans today.

The Titans fans over at MCM are pretty pissed at BBS, and I can see why. Young played a solid game today. Some stupid mistakes, sure, but he's light years ahead of Leinart or Cutler at this point in his career. Great passer? No. Good player? Certainly. Again, Young didn't lose the game today, and I'd LOVE to say he did. He talked crap to the Colts all game and the Titans were dropping some dirty hits on the guys in blue. But let's win with some class.

I can't believe you're making me defend a guy I hate, but stats don't tell the whole story - never do. Young kept several drives alive - like he always does - with his legs. Did you see Leinart last week against Arizona? Neither did anyone else. Never judge by stats. Ask any GM in the league who they'd rather have, I bet you 80 percent would say Young. Now excuse me, I'm going to go puke because you made me defend Vince Young.

Come on stat mongers, just give the guy credit, he gets it done, stats be damned.

I don't think anyone is saying that VY is a lights out throwing quarterback.  But as a mobile quarterback he has intangibles that you just don't get from a guy like, say, PMan.  When coverage is tight, or when he can't make the throw, the play isn't necessarily a loss, he can use his legs to make a play.  Thats why comparing straight line statistics just isn't a fair comparison.  

VY is a definite sub par passer, but I wouldn't say he is a sub par player.  He definately isn't in my top 10, hell even 20 qbs to start a franchise with.... But thats because I'm more atune to the drop back passer style, I definately favor that.  But I also understand where VY supporters get their idea that he has "upside" or a "winning attitude".

In today's NFL, there are more mobile quarterbacks than probably any point in the history of professional football. The problem is that just being mobile doesn't win games. Being a polished passer AND being mobile wins games. Also, more mobile QBs like McNair, McNabb, Vick, and Young tend to have much much shorter shelf lives than their pocket counterparts, simply because they take the hits that pocket QBs don't. If you had to ask me right now who's the better QB between Leinart and Young, I'd probably say Young. But if you had to ask me who I'd rather build a franchise around, I'd say Leinart, simply because the odds are that he's going to be around longer. He may not have as high a ceiling, but the chances of him getting popped at full speed by someone like Bob Sanders are significantly lower.

Always leaves me with a very unpleasant taste in my mouth after I read it.
