Observations: Titans-Colts "game" 2008 regular season finale
by Bryce Martin

The storyline all along is how wonderful it is for Vince Young to observe from the sidelines and how much he will learn. You knew that was typical propaganda. He is, after all, still Vince Young.

He showed that. He was still clueless, had no concept, threw just to get rid of the ball and showed why he is and will remain a dud. The time on the sidelines has done nothing but ingrain his ineptness to an even deeper abyss.

In the few times I've seen Quinton Ganther he has looked better than LenDale White or Chris Johnson. He has better burst than Johnson and has the power of White. Johnson is fast, but goes down like a feather.

The Colts are really missing out on the possibilities backup QB Jim Sorgi brings to the game. His nose is good for a first down on any play.

The Titans were once 10-0. The Colts started 3-4. The Titans end at 13-3, the Colts at 12-4. Coach of the year: Tony Dungy.

Did Rob Bironas not fully awake on the casual Titans sideline in time to make his field goal attempt?

Bad move by Fisher: Johnson was deactivated for the game. Supposedly, this was to give seldom used RB Chris Henry a chance to play. Instead, it was Ganther, who has shown in the past his abilities. That meant that Steve Slaton and Matt Forte, two running backs who were mere yards behind Johnson for the most by a rookie, would have a chance to overtake Johnson in rushing yards. They both did. If pressed on that one, Fisher, you can bet, would invoke the old it's-not-about-records routine. Well, considering the way the Titans laid out the game plan, it was more like a Seinfeld episode about nothing, so why be such a stick-in-the-mud? Dungy, at least, let his guys hit their milestones before pulling them.

-30-
