    Vince Young is healthy now, will he start this week for the Titans?

      Re: Zach Davis

      Jason Campbell was healthy in the playoffs last year for the Redskins, did he start or did Todd Collins?

        Was Vince Young playing well when he got hurt?

          Wow. We survive a game at YSU and play a decent game at WIU in which we rush the ball 49 times for ~180 yards; and we've found a new quarterback. Don't get me wrong, I think Davis has done a great job filling in for Pat, but when Pat is back to 100%, you go with Grace. The only way I can see making the switch now is if Grace isn't close to 100% for the rest of the season and can't play the last three games. Then you keep Davis for the playoffs. Otherwise Grace gets the job back.

            Yes, he played extremely well the last two years. Don't discount him because he threw a couple of picks in a pre-season game.

            He is 2-0 on the road as starter, has the biggest win of the year, according to the polls, I understand that Grace is our guy, just don't discount the validity of their possibly being some question as to whether or not you throw Pat back in so quickly.

              Seriously....Vince Young played "extremely well the last two years"??

              2006--51% Completion rate, 12 TDs, 13 INT, passer rating of 66.7
              2007--62% Completion rate, 9 TDs, 17 INT, passer rating of 71.1

              While this has absolutely nothing to do with Grace or Davis, I had to call B.S. on this one.

                I love VY, but to say he has played great is a BIG stretch.


                Grace is our guy when he gets healthy...end of story

                  On the 47 yard pass play to Corey Lewis on Saturday what would Grace have done? Grace would have run the ball. He wouldn't have run it for 47 yards. That is the difference between these two. Grace like to run, Davis like to throw. Quarterbacks throw, runningbacks run.

                    Okay...

                    Again, throw all of your stats out the window. I have already shown you how I judge QB's, W's and L's. Vince Young had Tennesee on a tear to end the year last year and they almost made the playoffs. I understand that they are not going to put him in the line up now at 8-0 but you guys are making Grace out to be second coming of jesus. Sometimes guys just don't get their job back after they are hurt. I am not saying it needs to happen but you guys have to stop discounting it so quickly.

                      The worst thing you can do is have a closed mind about the situation. Just because PG is 'the starter' and won the job in the spring, doesn't mean that he is best for the team now in November. ZD gives the playmakers on offense a better chance to make big time plays...

                        Gee, I remember a play much like that. Illinois State. Grace scrambles and throws a 50 yard bomb to Victor Williams for a TD. Good comparison, seems they did the same thing.

                        Zach did a nice job in his two starts. As long as Grace is healthy and ready to go, he should get the start. If he is anything but 100%, I think we should stick with Davis. Regardless, I think a back-up QB should be able to get some PT these next few games.

                            I would love that - but am a gadget play freak. Please be advised that I live out where the A11 originated. I have seen it. It is absolutely baffling to figure how to defend other than man to man which definitely opens up the field.

                            Its the spread offense on crank.

                              Grace starts when healthy, period. Why is this even a debate?

                              We should be darn lucky we have Davis as a backup.

                                I agree UNI is sitting real good at QB.
                                If you want to see a good debate go to the Iowa board how would you like to have that problem.In fact alot of schools would love to have one good QB.
