good picture, gotta respect Vince Young for the season he has had, most rookie QB's who have exceeded expectations as he has would be happy with the season and move on, not Vince, that's why he will be a winner in this league, never satisfied.

I'm all for Maroney, but the pic is a little weird. I could see patting him on the shoulder pads and saying "good game" but it looks like he's going overboard. He is the enemy. His team was cheap shotting the whole game.

He practically decapitated Samuel. Someone should have knocked him on his ass.

I dont see nothing wrong with a little sportsmanship, but after that game i wouldnt of wanted anything to do with the other team (the titans). I actually built a hatred towards The titans and there fans during that game.

They'll be friends for a long time in the league. Vince is a good person, quite hard on himself same for Maroney...they'll represent the league well for a long time.

Vince will have to play in the shadow of Brady & Manning for a few years but I'm betting he'll be top 5 in a year or 2 ... this kid is good.

My favorite 5 this year (to watch)
Brady
Brees
Manning
Young
Smith.

I don't agree. It shows extreme class by Maroney and shows how important the game was to Young. He will be a great player in my opinion.

Exactly my thoughts too!!!!!

Vince definitely had a good year, and potentially will be a truly great QB...I suspect he already 'gets it' in a way that many QBs don't.

But you don't beat good NFL defenses anywhere near as easily as you beat USC or Big 12 defenses, Vince...that's what you learned today. Make five mistakes a game in the NFL and your season ends.

I'm so happy San Fran won, so now Tennesse knows that we were the ones who ended their season. Suck on that all offseason.

 

[Krugman]

Wow,a player showing compassion for another player....how strange....instead of dancing around and trying to humiliate or degrade them....it will never catch on.....

Maroney is undoubtedly a class act, his act at the end of the season is certainly acceptable after a hard fought game, suspect they became friends this year as they went through the rookie requirements together.

Holding, (Boo!), Offense (BOOOO!).

Dillon rushes for 3 yards (BOOO!)

Brady pass complete for 2 yards (BOOOO!)

You'd think one of his own teamates would be there but Maroney is going to be a great Patriot for years to come IMO.

The rookies are all in it together,and no doubt Maroney feels his pain in that regard.
That pic says volumes about our boy LoMo.

How do we know what he's sayng? Maybe he's telling Vince that he sucks and should get a job at MacDonalds.

Along this topic did you see Brady on the field post game looking all around. I think he was looking for Vince and didn't notice him still on the bench.

This is too hilarious. When did McBee become the Minister of Team Ideological Purity?

Anyone else enjoying the irony of McBee accusing Maroney of not being enough of a loyal Pat?

12-03-2006:

"I root for teams that are tough, not boring, predictable and pathetic like the Pats were today. If the pats act better, i'll root for them. I rooted for them during the chicago game even when they looked like they'd blow it. I almost resolved myself not to call them the patsies, but then today happens. Thank god I didn't make that promise.

I figure I'll root for the pats and chargers. If they face each other in the playoffs, I'll root for the pats, but if they deserve to lose from poor play, i'll switch my allegiance and root against them. Then if they do win, I can be assured that they have survived their trial by fire and are stronger for it."

Now our very own little McBee is in charge of keeping up the ideological purity of the team? C-L-A-S-S-I-C!!!!!!

Vince Young didn't hand LM a Coca Cola? Maroney didn't throw him his jersey?Sorry wrong commercial.

You never know. For all we know, Maroney could be saying, "You got you ***** kicked and go get ready for the golf tournament".
