Will Steve Mcnair's Death Motivate Vince Young?

It is my understanding that Vince Young and Steve McNair were very close, infact Vince has refered to him as a father figure. I am sure that the Titans will be wearing a number 9 on there Jerseys this this season. I want to know if people think that Vince will use this for motivation to make him a better player, or if it will shatter his fragile ego even more in the event he gets playing time this year?

 

Young was never anything more than a taller Mike Vick minus the dogs. And he never will be more than that.

 

Michael Jackson's death probably means more to him.

 

Hopefully it will motivate him to greater things on the football field.

 

If they're as close as Vince claimed, you would think that it would motivate him tremendously. Playing for Steves team, looking at that #9 patch every sunday, you'd think Vince would do everything in his power to make him proud.

 

It probably will we will see.

 

it could motivate him, but I doubt he does enough to beat out Collins

 

Collins is getting up there though, definately very possible for him to get injured, can Vince take advantage if that happens?

 

I do kerry collins is not that good. Vince is a much better athlete and could be a weapon since they run the ball alot more now.

 

if vince hasnt got his mental game back
ryan leaf would beat him in a QB competion

 

I think they way over exaggerated what happend.

 

VY was Offensive Rookie of the year and in his 2nd year took the Titans to a Playoff game. Both years without a descent WR and he didnt have Chris Johnson like Ferry Collins did. Then he had a slump in his 3rd year and was injured.

It sounds like everybody forgot that including Jeff Fisher

 

Yea thats why i think he deserves a shot.

 

I think he gets a shot this year as well.

 

I tihink he will get his shot next year. Kerry has one solid year left imo.

 

ya they were really close, in fact they both dated the same aged women

 

Nothing can motivate Vincent like a night out on the town with the boys can.

 

:icon_lol:

 

I would trust Fisher if he does not think that VY is ready to lead the team.
