Texas' Vince Young, the third pick in the first round of the NFL Draft and to the Tennessee Titans, hates being 0 and 5. He was so upset about losing to the Colts that he didn't talk to the media.
It's understandable that he was as upset as he expressed with his silence. Several Titans receivers missed catchable passes Young threw that were difference makers in a contest they lost only by one point, 13 to 14.
Today, on the NFL Network, he appologized for not talking on Sunday and explained that he wasn't used to losing. He and Lendel White are having a hard time with the team's current position.
I think Vince did the right thing by not shooting off his mouth after the contest on Sunday. Today he spoke with a cool head and in a tone that garnered sympathy from the press in the lockerroom.
Vince may be young -- excuse the pun -- but he's well-trained by his parents and associates and wants to do well and be nice to people.
He may just be the tonic the Titans need to turn things around.
