Love the fact he's back on the field and playing well. I know it seemed like they waited too long to put him back in, but IMO, it was well timed. There were a handful of injuries, especially on defense, that were hurting the Titans. Some of those guys started to get back on the field when they reinserted Young. The time off has certainly been good for him. Some of the throws he made last night he wasn't close to making in previous seasons.
The option is old and tired - but man is that Young/Johnson dual in the backfield lethal. Young timed those pitched impeccably, waiting until the very last second to pitch the ball and at that time, Johnson was already headed directly upfield and at 3/4 speed. The only way defenses can stop that with any consistency is to either completely sell out on it (making going over the top very easy) or hide some extra guys on the field.
Highly unlikely the Titans make the playoffs but they are certainly playing like one of the 10 best teams the last 4 weeks. Good to see Young leading that charge.
