Titans HC Jeff Fisher Defends QB Vince Young's Poor Performance

Titans head coach Jeff Fisher insisted Saturday that Young has improved his accuracy and defended his quarterback’s footwork after a 17-16 win over Oakland on Friday night in which the quarterback was 4-of-13 for 37 yards. “He was very good at where to go and through his progressions. That was not a problem. He was sharp,” Fisher said. “The completions, the incomplete passes and things, you look at the numbers and say he struggled. There’s reasons for things that happened each play. He did misfire on a couple of them. He had people in his face in a couple plays; he couldn’t step up.” Fisher blamed the struggles on a coaching decision to stay basic with the game plan against the Raiders’ stingy man-to-man defense. Fisher also said the game didn’t look as bad as he anticipated once he studied the tape, finding mistakes he sees as easily fixable. “A quarterback’s back foot hits the ground, for example. He’s supposed to cut the ball loose and the receiver’s not out of the break. Those are things that need to be corrected,” Fisher said.
