Not everything about the shift from star college quarterback to NFL rookie has been easy for Vince Young. As is expected for a first-year player, the 6-5, 235-pound passer has encountered some struggles — and not in areas fans might expect.

"The worst part (about Nashville) has been adjusting to the freeways," said Young, a Houston native and the No. 3 overall pick by the Tennessee Titans in this year's NFL draft. "One time I got lost, and I almost ended up in Memphis."

We all knew he would struggle for a while... In a year or two though defenses should watch out...

i thought that they wud draft leinart cuz of norm chow bein the o coordinator and everything but on the day of the draft, j-unit came over to watch it and we were shocked when they said vince young. soon after c-unit called and we were all discussing it. but the one that made us laughed the most..8 overall pick..donte whitner! aahaha

I originally thought that because of chow, they would take lienert to, but just before the draft it was obvious, by the way fisher was talking and the rumors of him leaving after this year, that showed me that the owner called all the shots and he was in love with young

That and there's no denying Youngs upside over a guy like Leinart IMO. Leinart is more pro ready now, but in a couple years I bet Vince is a better pro.

im sorry but i just dont see it happening. i think leinart wud have been the better pick and will end up being the better pro. young isnt good at reading the D and relies too much on his wheels. one good hit and we have another mcnair on our hands with all the injuries

i agree the Rose Bowl wasn't a fluke when Young is ready defenses better watch out.

That was college and this is the NFL... Defenses arent gonna let him run like that in the NFL... We all know that pocket passers are the ones that prevail in the NFL and that is why Leinart is going to be a better QB in the future... Vince Young will be good and very dangerous but I dont think he will have a better career than Matt Leinart...

i think Leinart will have a better career, because he is one a better team. However, when Young is ready to play defenses won't know what hit them.
