I do believe Vince Young silenced most of his critics on Sunday. Even Merril Hoge is backpedaling, as August noted in his morning links. First off, I know it's Wednesday and really time to turn towards the Colts game but I got busy and didn't get these put together yesterday. So here are my photos from the game after the jump.

I know everyone has seen the video of Titans Owner Bud Adams "waving" to the Bills from the owner's box. How can a Titans fan not like having an owner like that? Sure, he shouldn't have done it but he showed he's as down to earth as the rest of us and not just some highfalutin stuffed shirt sitting way above us looking down. It was all in fun. Way to go Bud!

Long wait but the Titans finally won a game. A lot of things to be happy about and a few concerns still are evident. One thing for sure is I'm glad the rest of the home games are at noon on Sunday. I know the players and the team like prime time and under the lights, but I'll take noon starts over anything else. That's when football is meant to be played. There's a Christmas game late start but I don't think I'll be there for that one.

So here's Power to the Noon Starts:

[ED. NOTE]- Mike, aka TitanFan, has agreed to come on board here as the Official Photographer of MCM.  He will be posting his photos from each home game on the site.  Take some time to welcome him aboard and thank him for the great pics.  You can check out more of his work here. -Jimmy

As some of you know, I attend the Titans home games and shoot some photos from my seat in the North End Zone just for kicks and memories. I was hoping the photos from this year were going to be a documentation of the Titans run to the Super Bowl, but I start every season hoping that. I get encouragement every now and then that some of my photos aren't too bad so I thought I'd share some here.

Chris Johnson making a move early on in the game

Keith Bulluck returning an interception and Dallas Clark getting his hands in where they don't belong. Should've added a few more yards on for that.

Kerry Collins showing he can run. Not far, but he can run.

Manning congratulating his rookie receiver for making his second touchdown catch

Might not be Suzy Kolber but we got Andrea Kramer to town for some sideline reporting, who is pretty good in her own right.

Mark Jones returning a kick while dragging a Colt along for the ride.

Nick Harper injured his arm on this play

Peyton Manning moved into third place on the NFL career touchdown list with the first of his 3 touchdowns he threw during the game.

Like I said, I take the photos for my own enjoyment and like any amateur I'd jump at the chance to be on the field with the pros. I'm not suggesting that I'm at that level but I have gotten better in the last couple of years since I started doing this. It brings another aspect to the game that keeps me into it. Nothing like capturing that catch at the precise moment it comes over the shoulder and lands on the fingertips. Sports photography can be as awe inspiring as capturing that setting sun on some majestic mountain. A great shot is a treasure to have.
