He has the RAW talent, but i don't know if he has the mental ability to get it done as an NFL starter. He might need a change of scenery.

U cry about the $$$, we do the dirtywork
He is another guy who got by on athleticism, not football skills!
Thats won't carry him at this level.

after scoring 6 points on the wonderlic, Vince Young handed the paper to his kicker for the extra point.
that should have made us all alert lol

How many points did he get on the wonderlic for spelling his name right?

Well Marino was no genius on the wonderlic either.
Football smarts do not always relate to book smarts.

Marino scored at least in the double digits, though, right?

well 11 is a double digit lol. There are alot of high wonderlic guys that do not strike me as smart players. Just saying Marino was no genius but he was a genius with a football. Rewatch the championship game versus USC and tell me Young has a bad football IQ,
I guess he has decent college "football IQ," where you can get away with that one and run crap. In the NFL he can't beat out Kerry Collins or apparently Patrick Ramsey.

Maybe. He did well as a rookie and I dont see our second round pick as close to the prospect he was.
Well, that's where I disagree with you. I never bought into the hype of VY. I also wasn't happy with picking up Pat White in the second. But I'm not sure what that has to do with this. I will say this though, Pat White hasn't failed in the NFL yet. Young has.

Well I dont think either has failed. Young did excel early in some eyes since he was rookie of the year. Personally I think they should have helped him more at receiver but I agree he has not developed as planned.
Only on this site will people bemoan that a QB that was drafted 3rd overall only to have a 22-32 td/int ratio, 68.8 rating, and 24 fumbles (only 6 lost...how promising), and is about to be replaced at 2nd string by yet another journeyman isn't a failure.
