I think there is a misperception that Vince Young does a lot of things that Chance Mock can't do, ...

adds bad expected feels period saw saying thomas
Thomas is a better back than what you saw today. I'm not saying he was bad, he wasn't bad at all. I saw Thomas do some things during our two a day period that were awfully good, that I did not see him do before, and I expected him to do that today, but we didn't get to see it. When he feels comfortable with it and can do that, that just adds to his game.

Thomas had no intent, nor did he harm anyone. He was wrong in departing from where he was, and he accepts that responsibility. He knows that there are consequences, and he is in the process of responding to those consequences.
