    Vince will take over for Hentrich. Think about about it. On any given snap he could punt, pass, or run.

    One play we haven't seen much of since his rookie year is the zone read play. I'd like to see that return.
    I'd also like to see some play action right, bootleg left, hitting the TE or WR on a run/pass option.
    VY needs to get back to playing VY ball. Not Manning ball. And ignore Old Hodge Podge on ESPN.
    Man, I hate Merril Hodge, he's worse than Madden, IMO.
    But Hodge does have some style

    If anything, 4-5 wides in the shotgun and let the play develop with no intention of throwing the ball and then just run while all the DBs have their back to him. That is after all, what got him to the NFL.

    Hodge is huge fan of this Titans team, this is his type of team. He just hates seeing smashmouth Defense and a dominant running game get tortured by a QB not ready to manage games.

    Most defenses would hope that he uses the pass option

    He has to run more. VY running more than makes up foir his weaknesses as a passer. When a defense has to spy him, it opens up plays and will help our crappy WRs get open (they need all the help they can get). I really want him to start, but he has to be in the mentality to run. As someone else said, he has to play VY ball and not Manning ball. Would we send CJ up the middle 25 times a game? Would we send LenDale to the outside on every play? Would we use bootlegs with KFC? Of course not. We have to tailor the gameplan to his strengths. Not force the round peg into the square hole.

    Defenses always spy him. He constantly sees either spies or zones. You would think that that predictability would result in him overcoming it, but it hasn't. VY needs to commit to being a better qb. When he is clearly better than any other qb on our roster, then he can take over. Until then, we need to stop putting him on the field. One game this year, Collins will struggle, VY will be healthy and we'll stick him in at the end of a game and we'll come out on top. I think that is a fine role for him. Sitting on the bench should do him some good.

    He should be on the bench while he gets healthy, meatally and physically. He also should not be in the game until he can execute the offense, (he might be here already, too small a sample size).
