I am going to try to ask this...........

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; so there is no animosity towards my question................How does everyone think Vince Young is playing. I watched two seperate NFL replays with him at the helm, and i thought WOW. He made me think I was watching some Classic Texas ...

I think he's extremely raw as a quarterback. He's better than I thought as a passer, but he's no where close to being an elite quarterback. But hey, it doesn't matter when you're winning. The "it" factor is there with Young, but I think think he'll ever come close to being another McNair... someone he's been compared to early in his career.

Good player playing on a weak team against the lower tier of the NFL during the streak. Except for Indy, which was playing disinterested after clinching their playoff birth, each team they've beaten in their streak has been injured along the front 4.

I watched the recent game against Jacksonville, and I can say that I liked what I saw. Game management, is one of Vince's strongest points, and has been since he was at Texas. Anyone who watched the title game against USC, and seen that final drive that won the game.... WOW. He is a good leader in the huddle, and has the ability to inspire players around him. Sometimes that is a better trait to have, than amazing athletic talent. Which he is a great athlete. I'm going to take a different stance, and say that he will be a great player in the NFL. He has said, that when people doubt his abilities, is when he plays his best games.
