Vince Young's revenge?

Vince Young, playing against the team that essentially went with David Carr over him, is rolling the Texans: one thirty-yard rushing TD from a busted play to go with his passing TD.

Meanwhile, Carr has turned the ball over three times and been yanked from the game. 21-3 Titans.

Young’s rushing TD was a burnt orange thing of beauty: a streak to the sideline, and then to the corner.

Update: Sage Rosenfels, in for Carr, throws a TD to Andre Johnson. 21-10. Next series: Vince Young takes it on the keeper, and is one ankle-tackle away from breaking it. One announcer calls it, "Shades of the Orange Bowl." Yeah, the Orange Bowl, whatever.

Nice move starting Carr in place of Manning this week...

Yeah, I went in with both eyes open: Peyton vs. a top defense on the round vs. a hot QB vs. a terrible defense. Took a shot, lost.

Would have lost anyway, as the Doughboys went wild. I'm hurt 28 points in the aggregate. And Peyton starts from now on, even against New England's newly ferocious defense.
