Why's it got to be black? Eric Crouch was white. There's been many white option quarterbacks. But, as chumpmann pointed out, who was the last one to win a Super Bowl?
same people who were saying he couldn't beat usc, and doubted him all along.
Well I'm not in that category, but I remember everyone got the game they wanted. They knew it was going to be a good game. I picked USC because of the Mack Brown factor. As it turned out, Mack just let Vince take over.
the titans, a CRAPPY team last year with a veteran qb, have now won 6 of their last 8. vince knows how to lead a team. leinart has much more talent on his team, and can't get anything going. we'll get back together next year, and you will still be doubting him, even if they are undefeated. have faith, people. p.s., i dont think any other option qb was even close to as naturally talented to start with as vince is.
Vick does good too. Cunningham did good too. But he'll never be "elite" qb like Brady, McNabb, Manning, Palmer. Leinart has that potential. But again, this is the first freakin' year for both of them. Let's revisit this in a couple years. I'm not doubting Vince will ever be a good qb, but he won't be an elite qb imo. He's doing a little better than I anticipated, but I still have to wonder why they have to keep coming back. One run yesterday in OT against a crappy team after really doing nothing prior to that doesn't do anything special for me. Of course, Sportscenter sure loves that crap just like all the stuff Vick does.
