Just because the media was determined to make him the greatest thing ever, doesn't mean he was.
The defense that year was responsible for a ridiculous number of points, and we're reason 1 why that team made the playoffs.
I vague remember a game where VY had thrown for under 100 yards, and a few INT's - and Tennessee won the game because they had 2-3 defensive TD's and/or a ST touchdown.

So, Vince never won games in the final minute or two? His ability to run didnt deter teams from running too much man coverage or else risk getting burned by him? Cmon man, give the kid his props. The Titans were 0-6 and are undefeated since he was inserted into the lineup and are in the ****ing playoff picture! At the end of the day, its about winning games right? He does that and makes the games fun to watch...I think he will get things tightened up and become a guy in consideration for league mvp a couple times in his career, Im sure people will discount that too. Well see. I see a better version of Dante Cullpepper in the kid.

You dont pass on a elite talent like Crabtree because he doesnt have great speed either. A lot of/Most of the great receivers in history haven't had great speed.
I think Crabtree has enough speed to make himself a effective deep threat, but will live off the crossing routes and possession situations...and the end zone.
