It’s not normal to raise your children with a leash around their neck but most of you still do it. Now all your kids are on anxiety meds. Stop giving advice you ppl are shallow and godless
Yeah this dude is smokin something if he thinks Vince had a “tragic” end to his career. Had he had the amount of Chances as Tim “No Deep Throwin’ Ass” Tebow. He’d have made any subpar team better. Vince will forever be a Longhorn And H Town legend…. Ya dig!!!
I have often wondered how his NFL career would have gone if he didn’t have Jeff Fischer for a coach. Firing Fischer and replacing him with McVay certainly helped Goff.
Man listen! ‘94 I was in high school. Me and my boys ‘borrowed’ my mama’s Cutlass Supreme to go down to catch a Steve McNair game. He did not disappoint! I swear McNair was at his own 20 and floated that ball to the other 20! R.I.P. McNair🙏🏿
Vince Young almost died when he was hit by a car as a child. He also had another father figure with Madison’s head coach the legendary Coach Ray Seals. VY also just opened a steakhouse
LOL 😅 VY doesn't own the steak house! The steak house might VY name with him being there at the steak house hosting. Let it be said the steak house is owned by an UT Alumni who has deep ties to UT and UT FOOTBALL!
As a Titans fan, I'm glad you're shedding light on this. I hated the way the Titans treated Steve and eventually VY. Steve was my favorite player growing up, and he doesn't get enough credit for what he's produced on the field. Even Derrick Mason, who put up solid numbers, doesn't get talked about much. We have a bad habit of mistreating our star players.
Yes they don't ever talk about Steve McNair. Dude was a beast back then. Putting up crazy numbers. Idk how you bring up Kurt Warner without acknowledging his Superbowl counterpart. That's 1 yard away from ending the greatest show on turf before the patriots and Tom Brady. Would have changed the perspective of a lot of things. Like Flem said, probably Eddie's career view too!
As a ravens fan by the time we ended up with McNair he was a former shell of himself, the Titans made this man put his body in harms way too many times
Those kinds of games are far and so few between. It can happen in the regular season, the playoffs, the championship. When two teams with 0 give up face off, you know lT'S ON!! 💪💪👍👍
In my opinion, the man should be in the HoF. If they put him in, his rushing numbers would be the second best in there and his passing was definitely in the mix. He was a Super Bowl starter and an MVP winner in different years. There are valid arguments against him being there, but I just don't understand why they'd keep him out.
I remember Vince coming to my job a lot in my early twenties he even gave me and my brother his number we called it and it was actually him he was a cool dude and always tipped well…..Vince young fan for life
Despite this being a Vince Young video, I got a different, sobering perspective on Steve McNair. Thank you for doing great background work for your videos.
another banger dude you always do such a great job of humanizing these athletes who I perceived as larger than life and completely unassailable. I appreciate your videos man truly providing a window into other people's lives and stories.
I appreciate your depth in this video bro. I appreciate your homework that some people don’t do by themselves. You get to the human of Vince not just the Super Star. Much love my guy!👊🏽
This is certainly up there with the Lawrence Phillips video Flem did when it came to giving context/knowledge I definitely did not have at the time that would have completely changed the way I saw Vince Young. Granted I was a small child when Lawrence Phillips was around, but with Vince Young I grew up a Mizzou fan and by proxy did not like most teams in the Big 12 (because we got our asses handed to us a lot.) I'm glad that this context was given this way because my view of what happened to him has changed my entire outlook on the whole situation.
Steve McNair was super popular. When Alcorn St played UTC the local radio station talked more about Steve McNair and Alcorn St than the hometown team UTC.
@@wetoodeepou5612 as much as I liked the U, we can't count them based on the fact that they were already a NFL team by themselves, they were just playing in college uniforms 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Another great presentation my man. Many would have never known about this connection until you told Vince's story. But the absent dad and substance abusing mom is a common theme in a lot of these videos. Amazing how many are able to rise above their crappy circumstance
as a young white man doing good for himself that grew poor in the “ black man’s “ america someone needs to get to get you onto a global stage your football story’s are not only informative but inspiring and motivational i’ve been subscribe 4-5 years and you’ve helped me so much in my outlook thank you!
This wasn't even fully about Steve McNair but damn bruh. I knew most of this because Vince is one of my all time favorite QB's. The rose bowl made me a fan of football man... Like VY was the dude. Anyhow thanks for reminding me and the world how amazing Steve was and how much we should all miss his presence on this earth. U a real one @FlemLoRaps
I just had to pull up and comment about the 09 and 10 season . Mann as a big Titans fan that 09 season with the expectations after the 08 season was very high. that 0-6 start was depressing . Collins lost his arm and alot of injuries was stacked up on defense of key starters. When Vince took over after the 0-6 start , My bro and I did not miss a single game . That was some of the most exciting football . He really showed he matured as the backup in the Bills and San Fran game making key plays to get just ahead where the defense was finally able to make a stop. which opened up the offense more in the 4th. When week 11 came (Tennessee now 4-0 ) The entire squad was now healthy on MNF against the Texans. That was Vince's best overall performance. He was doing great both in the pocket, extending the play and trick plays lateralling to chris Johnson when he scrambles. That game was an exciting nail biter to just edge Houston . The next game was for the history books with Arizona. There were quite abit of mistakes made by both sides . Vince accidently running the clock out well in field goal range before the 2nd half. The big play by Britt that resulted in a fumble. But that all set up the insane 99 yard walkoff touchdown. I remember that 4th and goal to this day. Watching the game on a potato live stream , my bro and i were going crazy. I think after all those 4th down conversions and that tipped ball where Bo scaife who was not the intended receiver caught on the run at pretty much his full speed. It was destiny Tennessee would win this game. The colts game Tennesse had a great chance of winning. Some mistakes were made i believe a missed 4th down conversion in Colts territory played a huge role when they should have just kicked the field goal. That win there Tennesse would have made it to the playoffs . Because the charger were just too hot after that colts loss , Titans were not going to win. It was either beat the colts and win every game except to the chargers and earn playoffs . or lose to the colts and win out to earn a position. the 2010 season started amazing . Though i believe they should have beaten the stealers. Chris johnsons 50+ yard td in the 2nd half got called back. which would have put Tennessee in the lead. The denver game was very winnable , just alot of questionable play calling constantly putting in Javon Ringer wasting downs. (They were trying to replicate 08's smash n dash but Javon aint no liquored up White) . So really Titans should have been 7-0 coming into week 8 before the mess that would insue. Young got lost in the sauce , divided up the lockeroom and messed up what would have been a playoff bound season. I still believe Jeff Fisher should have stayed with the team. He would have most certainly brought Tennessee to the playoffs that next season. Mike made several questionable mistakes which led to them relying on the Jets to beat the dolphins in the final week of the season to make the playoffs. Who would have known that Sanchez would ish the bed and Jason Taylor the now dolphin would get his retirement victory setting up a key interception.
FlemLo, thank you for doing this video and making it a two-parter. Man, I had no idea about Young's relationship with McNair. I knew the Titans messed up with VY, but after this, it's hard to see it as anything other than a manufactured tragedy. With VY, the talent was there. We'd seen it several times ('06 vs Giants, '07 vs Chiefs, '09 vs Cardinals). But, they never let Vince be Vince.
Another incredible Video, ESPN is going to be calling soon, if not you're going to make it with or without them. I never knew about the connection of Young and McNair for a huge football fan this kind of back story is what we love. It makes these heroes of ours real. You're the man brotha and I'm rooting for you, nobody can do this better then you. Wish you all the success. 💪
Yo Flemlo, this is one of my all time college football heroes plus he is from Texas which makes this video extra special then on top of that my brother used to play with Steve Air McNair which make this video extra special as well. Can't wait for part 2 ✌️
Story made me cry man. I had no idea Steve and Vince were so close. So many teams miss how important a mentor is for a young QB. You’d think they’d learn after it worked so well for guys like Rodgers and Mahomes…
McNair was still throwing it decently, too. It's not like they would be keeping him on the roster as a suited up consultant. This one was baffling. I can't find anything on a shallow Google search for Young's relationship Collins. But, I imagine it was nowhere near as inspiring as it would've been with McNair.
The greatest college quarterback ever was Steve Air McNair. The numbers show. I’m from Mississippi and saw it first hand when was at Alcorn. Rip to the Goat 🐐
I worked with Steve McNair's auntie in New Orleans. She and Steve looked alike. Steve's auntie loved he nephew and talked about him a lot. Wild part about it was Michael "Beerman" Lewis from the Saints cousin also worked at the same place. Her and Michael looked alike as well. So I knew they were telling the truth.
Beerman is one of my favorite Saints ever! Loved cheering for him as a returner and hoped the Saints would give him a front office position ... and they did!
Man I love your videos. You always knock it right out of the park with whatever video you make. Plus, you’re not biased at all in most if not all your videos. Keep it up man, seriously. Idk if you do requests at all but if you do, can you do a video on Dabo Swinney? That would be awesome.
Shout out/rip Steve "air" McNair as we knew him. My neighbors played with him at Alcorn, and he would often come down with them. He would also play qb for us during "pickup and run" games.🎉
Flem, good job breaking up the story into 30 min chunks. Longer videos are a bit hard to find time to watch and maybe if one of the 2+ hits a new audience you can have them find the other videos and get a new fan. You're my favorite player documenatarian.
As a KState fan I remember the first time ever seeing him play, it was against us in 2003 when I was 10 years old…I remember never seeing a player who was that towering but had such effortless speed and arm strength. I could tell I was watching someone special even that young. I followed his career after that game and if you told me that he didn’t become a HOF player 20 years later I would’ve thought you were TRIPPIN. I hope he can keep elevating in life 🙏🏿
Man I did not know you was from Mississippi , I'm from Brookhaven much love keep doing your thing I been tapped in since the beginning the old gaming chair 😂😂 🖤
Damn this was a great part 1! I grew up in Austin and was at a pizza place watching the national championship and it was WILD! We went to the campus the next day and holy cow!
Great stuff Flem! New sub btw, the algorithm has gifted me your channel haha I was not aware of the relationship between SM and VY, being as tight as they were! As an Eagles fan, I thought the idiot Titans shipping AJ Brown to us was that franchise's worst mistake ever... But how they did SM SO dirty!? It was a fairytale situation, to let his mentor teach him how to be a successful NFL qb and his evental replacement, Dude, that's a next level FAIL, what could have been!
Vince Young is the best college football quarterback to ever come out of University of Texas. Although, he hated playing for Jeff Fisher and the Titans.🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈
Man. I moved to austin texas when i was 17 in 2004. I remember hanging with friends, watching the longhorns (thats when i truly became a longhorn fan. I used to catch the OU vs. Texas game every year and id root for Texas, but i wasnt a huge fan until i moved to austin). I remember when they won the national championship. It was crazy! Vince Young is still welcome anywhere in austin he wants lol. I thought he was going to do huge things in the nfl, especially after that amazing rookie campaign. Hes always been the biggest what if in my opinion. Hes still a legend in Texas though!
Such a great narrator. I really appreciate the content. Not enough people know the story of Vince as ir should be told. This looks to be part 1 of that.
Listen, it may not have worked out exactly for Vince Young but at the end of the day dude won a natty, won NFL rookie of the year as a QB (back then that was unheard of) made millions of dollars has a retirement set up is a legend especially in Texas.
I am a diehard fan of the Alabama football team, and I consider the 2018 national championship game against UGA to be the second-best game after the USC and Texas games. As a young fan, that game captivated me, and I doubt any other game can surpass it.
I wish you could understand how big of a deal his senior year in high school was. Especially their Round 3 win over North Shore. North Shore was unbeaten, ranked #1 in the state, and boasted a team that had close to 20 D-1 commits. They were a juggernaut. The week before they met, my high school team went down to North Shore. North Shore was just an impressive team top to bottom. In week 10, their last regular season game, North Shore went into a battle of the unbeatens against Baytown Lee high, who's prized QB Drew Tate was shattering passing records on his way to a D-1 career at Iowa. Both teams were 9-0 and top 10 in the state. North Shore beat them 77-35. And 3 weeks later Madison went blow for blow with them, and VY even went in on defense to play safety so his secondary could get a breather. It was THE BIGGEST high school game I'd ever seen that exceeded the hype. VY was already a big name, he was royalty in Houston. But that game made national news for his credentials. He blew up. I wish you could do some research into that game. It wasn't just a great game for him. It was a STAMP. It was THE game of the year.
I'm just now starting the video but i have to say that Vince is a guy I always bring up as a player that the NFL failed. I'm a massive OU fan, so maybe that adds some weight to me saying how incredible he truly was. He was RG3 before RG3... Vince was an incredible talent that unfortunately dealt with mental health issues before therapy among men was as accepted as it is today, it still has along ways to go. I honestly put a lot of the blame on Jeff Fisher and the Titans organization. I think he could have had a long and very productive career if he actually received the help and patience that he needed.
1 + 9 = 10
Like when u get the context👍🏾
Warren Moon+Steve McNair=Vince Young
Also former Tennessee Titans and Houston Oilers QBs
All legendary Black Oilers/Titans QBs, all had different struggles and styles but were amazing at their peaks.
RIP 9
Literally was thinking that when you showed the picture of all three of them 🔥
Oh, c'mon, that one was easy, Flem!
It’s not normal for eleven year old to sleep by the front door to protect their mother. Not normal at all no matter how common it is.
Or she could make better decisions…
@@throatcoater3So could his father. The males always get a pass.

@@mosessupposes2571we blamed for it all always the fuck
Vince is my guy. If you’ve ever met him in person you’d know how good of a man he is.
Yeah this dude is smokin something if he thinks Vince had a “tragic” end to his career.
Had he had the amount of Chances as Tim “No Deep Throwin’ Ass” Tebow. He’d have made any subpar team better. Vince will forever be a Longhorn And H Town legend…. Ya dig!!!
🙏🏾🤔YES💪🏽🏈
My dad actually played golf with him one time and said the same thing. He so genuine and humble and just nice.
100%
He was real popular in local blue oyster bars here in Austin
His performance in the '06 Nat'l Championship Game was nothing short of AMAZING!!!
Man we had that game on tape
My high school teammate.. damn time flies
damn you old as hell
damn you old as hell
Yep you posted this 8 hrs ago already
I have often wondered how his NFL career would have gone if he didn’t have Jeff Fischer for a coach. Firing Fischer and replacing him with McVay certainly helped Goff.
💯
Fischer sure did ruin a lot of careers
@@rajeshbista2690 probably why he never got another HC job after LA
Mr. 9-7 says it all.
Here here
Can confirm how huge McNair mania was. Even down here on the Coast. Everyone was glued to his games.
I saw Air McNair in Alcorn and he was electrifying
Seen Steve play vs Jackson State in 1991 and 1993..2 of my classmates played with Steve at Alcorn.
Man listen! ‘94 I was in high school. Me and my boys ‘borrowed’ my mama’s Cutlass Supreme to go down to catch a Steve McNair game. He did not disappoint! I swear McNair was at his own 20 and floated that ball to the other 20! R.I.P. McNair🙏🏿
Vince Young almost died when he was hit by a car as a child. He also had another father figure with Madison’s head coach the legendary Coach Ray Seals. VY also just opened a steakhouse
LOL 😅 VY doesn't own the steak house! The steak house might VY name with him being there at the steak house hosting. Let it be said the steak house is owned by an UT Alumni who has deep ties to UT and UT FOOTBALL!
Ray Seals is the goat! Had Vince stayed in Houston… He would’ve had a strong mentorship situation
@@CULATER1960we are all impressed by your extensive knowledge of steakhouse ownership.
As a Titans fan, I'm glad you're shedding light on this. I hated the way the Titans treated Steve and eventually VY. Steve was my favorite player growing up, and he doesn't get enough credit for what he's produced on the field. Even Derrick Mason, who put up solid numbers, doesn't get talked about much. We have a bad habit of mistreating our star players.
Yeah, I remember watching Steve's documentary, and I still remember the way Zack Pillar described how you guys cut him. It definitely sucks
Yes they don't ever talk about Steve McNair. Dude was a beast back then. Putting up crazy numbers. Idk how you bring up Kurt Warner without acknowledging his Superbowl counterpart. That's 1 yard away from ending the greatest show on turf before the patriots and Tom Brady. Would have changed the perspective of a lot of things. Like Flem said, probably Eddie's career view too!
I totally agree with you
As a ravens fan by the time we ended up with McNair he was a former shell of himself, the Titans made this man put his body in harms way too many times
@@cfly87as a Steeler fan, I called him the, Black Brett Favre. They both were tough and played through injuries. Strong arms especially
I was 19 during the rose bowl in 2006 when Vince young and the longhorns beat usc. Was an insane game to watch live
Those kinds of games are far and so few between. It can happen in the regular season, the playoffs, the championship. When two teams with 0 give up face off, you know lT'S ON!! 💪💪👍👍
Ya it's crazy I was 15
Same for me I was 19 too. I remember watching the game with my older brothers.
I was much older than all of you (and still am), but I remember this game so well, too! It's the only Rose Bowl I remember and I am no Longhorns fan.
So was the game against Michigan the year before.
Steve McNair was fucking awesome, totally underrated NFL legend
In my opinion, the man should be in the HoF. If they put him in, his rushing numbers would be the second best in there and his passing was definitely in the mix. He was a Super Bowl starter and an MVP winner in different years. There are valid arguments against him being there, but I just don't understand why they'd keep him out.
Especially after McNair was murdered.
Vince Young is one if the biggest What Ifs for the NFL, if only he'd been drafted by a different team or had any head coach other than Jeff Fisher.
Or if the Titans kept McNair for the first few seasons of Young's career
I remember Vince coming to my job a lot in my early twenties he even gave me and my brother his number we called it and it was actually him he was a cool dude and always tipped well…..Vince young fan for life
As a native Austinite, Vince Young was everything in Texas. Still gets love back home too, same for Ricky, Colt, and Roy Williams. 🤘🏾for life!
Despite this being a Vince Young video, I got a different, sobering perspective on Steve McNair. Thank you for doing great background work for your videos.

Real ones know this is a remake, but i don't mind at all. Flemlo out here doing gods work regardless
The connection Steve McNair had with Vince when Vince was a kid is something so great and awesome to hear
Can't wait for part 2, This was peak college football! Thanks for another banger Flem!
I appreciate your depth in this video bro. I appreciate your homework that some people don’t do by themselves. You get to the human of Vince not just the Super Star. Much love my guy!👊🏽
Awesome vid as usual bro! Always do awesome work!
That Rose Bowl is still the best game I have ever seen.
Yeah that game was incredible !!!
I wanted the bills to give him a chance, but sadly they cut him in camp. It sucks!!!
This is certainly up there with the Lawrence Phillips video Flem did when it came to giving context/knowledge I definitely did not have at the time that would have completely changed the way I saw Vince Young.

Facts
I was at Alcorn all Steve McNair's years there. Truly magical years!!!! Did not know Steve impacted Vince like this.
Liked and shared before hittin play! Vince Young was magic at Texas, beat maybe the best college team of all-time.
Cam Newton and Tim Tebow have entered the chat
2000 Miami has entered the building

Ahhhhh,I should have waited until you posted both videos. So,then I could have binged them. Cause this one is another banger. Good video
So we gone leave out Texas vs Michigan aka Young vs Braylon Edwards. That’s where a lot of his senior season hype came from
Literally the only channel I watch covering stuff like this, great work as usual.
😄👍

Femlo thank you for giving life lessons while telling stories.
I don't know how you make these videos without crying they hit hard.
As a KState fan I remember the first time ever seeing him play, it was against us in 2003 when I was 10 years old…I remember never seeing a player who was that towering but had such effortless speed and arm strength. I could tell I was watching someone special even that young. I followed his career after that game and if you told me that he didn’t become a HOF player 20 years later I would’ve thought you were TRIPPIN. I hope he can keep elevating in life 🙏🏿
Man I did not know you was from Mississippi , I'm from Brookhaven much love keep doing your thing I been tapped in since the beginning the old gaming chair 😂😂 🖤
Yo flem could you do a story on the career of Brandon weeden
Hated When My Dawgs Took His Old Ass First Round!!! Still Makes No Sense Till This Day But Would Be A Great Video.
"The Weedman"!
Great job
Damn this was a great part 1! I grew up in Austin and was at a pizza place watching the national championship and it was WILD! We went to the campus the next day and holy cow!
Great stuff Flem! New sub btw, the algorithm has gifted me your channel haha I was not aware of the relationship between SM and VY, being as tight as they were! As an Eagles fan, I thought the idiot Titans shipping AJ Brown to us was that franchise's worst mistake ever... But how they did SM SO dirty!? It was a fairytale situation, to let his mentor teach him how to be a successful NFL qb and his evental replacement, Dude, that's a next level FAIL, what could have been!
Man this was an amazing video. Thanks.
Another stellar video! 👏
Your writing and storytelling are amazing.
Appreciate your giving titans love with a lot of your videos. Smaller market team and I have watched all the videos of you covering titans players
Watched the whole video and really loved this my guy 👌 great info
Great work!!
Flemo Raps when are you going to come out with part 2???
Man these videos feel like the old 30 for 30s, I love every second of them
💜 You and your work Flemlo
This is one of your best works.
Flemo Raps, thank you for an insightful video. Ijs. Salute. Ijs 💯 💯
Man I tell you being from Bama a huge tide fan living in Cali I wanted Texas to win and that game I will never forget one of the best CFB ever
vince young made me a texas fan as a kid and i begged my parents for a vince young titans jersey
Vince Young is the best college football quarterback to ever come out of University of Texas. Although, he hated playing for Jeff Fisher and the Titans.🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈
Man. I moved to austin texas when i was 17 in 2004. I remember hanging with friends, watching the longhorns (thats when i truly became a longhorn fan. I used to catch the OU vs. Texas game every year and id root for Texas, but i wasnt a huge fan until i moved to austin). I remember when they won the national championship. It was crazy! Vince Young is still welcome anywhere in austin he wants lol. I thought he was going to do huge things in the nfl, especially after that amazing rookie campaign. Hes always been the biggest what if in my opinion. Hes still a legend in Texas though!
Holy crap i didnt realize thoes 2 were so close. It makes McNairs death even more rough.
Met Vince at the okc airport, I didn’t realize how big he is. Real nice guy
Such a great narrator. I really appreciate the content. Not enough people know the story of Vince as ir should be told. This looks to be part 1 of that.
I need part two
Listen, it may not have worked out exactly for Vince Young but at the end of the day dude won a natty, won NFL rookie of the year as a QB (back then that was unheard of) made millions of dollars has a retirement set up is a legend especially in Texas.
Mane you 🥶 Excellent work 💯✊🏾
Ok Steve being that fucking cool is wholesome as a dude that didn’t grow up wit a dad I get it totally mad respect to bro!💯🫡
Did you ever do the part 2 to this?
No
The tree analogy throughout was beautiful
Excellent video
There needs to be a part two
I am a diehard fan of the Alabama football team, and I consider the 2018 national championship game against UGA to be the second-best game after the USC and Texas games. As a young fan, that game captivated me, and I doubt any other game can surpass it.
I wish you could understand how big of a deal his senior year in high school was. Especially their Round 3 win over North Shore. North Shore was unbeaten, ranked #1 in the state, and boasted a team that had close to 20 D-1 commits. They were a juggernaut. The week before they met, my high school team went down to North Shore. North Shore was just an impressive team top to bottom. In week 10, their last regular season game, North Shore went into a battle of the unbeatens against Baytown Lee high, who's prized QB Drew Tate was shattering passing records on his way to a D-1 career at Iowa. Both teams were 9-0 and top 10 in the state. North Shore beat them 77-35. And 3 weeks later Madison went blow for blow with them, and VY even went in on defense to play safety so his secondary could get a breather. It was THE BIGGEST high school game I'd ever seen that exceeded the hype.
VY was already a big name, he was royalty in Houston. But that game made national news for his credentials. He blew up.
I wish you could do some research into that game. It wasn't just a great game for him. It was a STAMP. It was THE game of the year.
I'm just now starting the video but i have to say that Vince is a guy I always bring up as a player that the NFL failed. I'm a massive OU fan, so maybe that adds some weight to me saying how incredible he truly was. He was RG3 before RG3... Vince was an incredible talent that unfortunately dealt with mental health issues before therapy among men was as accepted as it is today, it still has along ways to go. I honestly put a lot of the blame on Jeff Fisher and the Titans organization. I think he could have had a long and very productive career if he actually received the help and patience that he needed.
I loved VY. Still have his rookie card and I watched every snap he played at Texas
You never did a part 2???
Killin it as always
