Yup, could pad his stats today still with Taylor heading to the locker room.

well... Young didn't look too bad on his stat sheet either.
But.. Colston... his initials are MC... that'd be great. MC catches the ball it's an MC Touchdown...
sounds like a white rapper from suburbia... MC Touchdown fo' sho!

MJD is looking great, but he's not carrying the team....heck, he's not even their starter.
After today, Vince Young is the only name in the conversation. Everyone else is an afterthought.

Thats stupid. Maurice Jones Drew is in it as much as anyone, if you want to get all technical, Young wasn't the starter at the beginning of the year.

Right, but Jones-Drew is still second to Fred Taylor. Vince Young has taken the Titans on his back and made a very impressive run with a team that wasn't expected to do much. Plus, Jones-Drew may be more impressive on the stat sheet but Young has made more meaningful plays.

I'd love for MJD to win it, but I doubt it happens. I think it's between either Addai and VY.
Although, Addai could've lost it today. The hype on ESPN I'm hearing (ESPNews) is "Jones-Drew or Vince Young?"

Addai really had a bad day running it.

your opinion and everyones opinion will change each and every week... the guy who just came off the big game is suddenly the front runner... i think it will go to him because of wat he has down statistically throughout the ENTIRE year, not just a couple games

It's VY no question. On a pretty bad team, to be able to lead them to victories cannot be ignored. Jones Drew has good stats but his contributions as a RB are limited w/Fred Taylor, but VY is racking up the best stats by himself in the premier position of the league... wins.
The past three games have wrapped it up for him imo.
Rally the team behind 21-0 deficit.
Beat the Colts in a rally.
Beat the Texans in OT
In all these games, VY was instrumental

Right now you have to think Vince Young is leading the pack, he took a bad team and basically carried them on his back throughout the past 3 games, I may not have been a fan of this guy before, but I sure as hell am now. Right after Young I got MJD, followed closely but Marques Colston.

Young is 6-4 as a starter with the losses coming to teams with a combined record of 36-15, with two of those losses coming by one single point

The only thing Mo Drew locked up was Rookie of the Week honors.
And he did quite a job of it.

VY has been so huge for producing victories for his (below average) team... How can anyone ignore that?
I'm neither a VY supporter or basher. I didn't have much of any opinion of him before the draft and I'm very impressed now. You could say the Giants game was a fluke, but given what he's done the past two weeks... WOW. That championship game was a sign of things to come once he went pro.

VY has lead the TItans to a 6-4 record. that's right the Titans 6-4. He wins it for me.

Speaking of that, where did you get it? Someone I knew online claimed to have made it and gave it to me and I used it over at MaddenPlanet.com (Nza is my name there), interesting to see if he was telling the truth :)

These are the only people that matter when talking about ROY:
Kelly Jennings
Darryl Tapp
Rob Sims
David Kirt - ...no
Ryan Plackemeier
Personally I am leaning towards Plack Attack but Tapp makes a good case

I think Colston lost rookie of the year when he went down with that ankle injury, and other guys like VY, and J-Drew started tearing it up.Which is a shame because he was having a great season up until then.
I think he can possibly reclaim it if he surges strong over the last 3 games and finishes with 1,200 yards, 10 TDs...
however if VY get's 2 more dramatic wins like he's been having...he's a lock for it IMO.

addai got his first 100 yard game two weeks ago. mo drew only busts out for long runs which are set up by fred talyor, and colsten hasnt played in a while. the OROY is the heisman i mean runner up for the heisman, omvp of the national title game and the third pick of the draft, vincent young. he has taken a team that earlier in the year was under the helm of a veteran QB kerry collins and went 0-3. they have pretty much no talent, haynesworth missing 8 game is huge also. but somehow vince young has led them to a a surging comeback with his 6-4 recored. he deserves it.

Vince Young right now, no question. Not only is he winning games, he's taking the entire team on his back and winning them. He has almost single-handedly turned that franchise around. None of the other candidates come close to being that kind of "valuable".
1. Vince Young
2. Marques Colston
3. Devin Hester
4. Maurice Drew
5. AJ Hawk
Addai is simply a mediocre back in a good system. I mean, he can't seem to beat out Dominic Rhodes for a starting spot. Let's face it, over half the teams in the league have a better BACKUP than Rhodes.

Rhodes is a mediocre back in a good system. Addai is a good back in a good system.
