Roy Cummings' Keys To The Titans Game
Imagine Michael Vick, but only bigger. That's pretty much what the Titans have in QB Vince Young. He's got Daunte Culpepper-like size and a big-time arm, but he's not a real accurate thrower. He's dangerous, though, because he can get outside the pocket and turn up field. That's what the Bucs have to be concerned with. Young doesn't have a game-breaking receiver or anyone who truly stands out above the rest of his targets, so he makes defenses pay by breaking their containment and running for critical yards. Because he's so big, he's very tough to bring down. The best way to keep him from hurting you is to keep him trapped inside the pocket. The Bucs have faced this type of quarterback before and they usually do a pretty good job against them. The reason is they tend to be very disciplined in their rush. They cut off the escape routes to the side and up the middle and force the quarterback to throw. If they can remain disciplined today, they can neutralize Young's effectiveness and keep him from hurting them with his feet. ...more

THE SAINTS WILL WIN IF ... THE BUCS WILL WIN IF ...
They get solid performances out of QB Drew Brees and RBs Deuce McAllister and Reggie Bush. This triple threat has the ability to give defenses fits because Brees, McAllister and Bush have the ability to consistently keep defenses off balance. No one in this group has to play great to be effective. All three are good enough to make an impact just by playing well. ...more
