Chow, Chow, Chow ...
Offensive guru Norm Chow is Tennessee's offensive coordinator and the guy who has guided Vince Young through his first two NFL seasons. Before tutoring Young, and even before tutoring Matt Leinart and Carson Palmer at USC, Chow was Philip Rivers' offensive coordinator for one year at North Carolina State.
"The one thing he did for me was, you knew exactly what he was trying to get out of every play," Rivers recalled. "He did a great job of, not necessarily simplifying it, but you knew when the play was called, it was, 'Hey, look, I want you to look at this (receiver) and read this area.' He made you confident early, for me early in my career. and I imagine that's what he's doing for Vince there.
"He was fun to play for. I hated only having him for one year, but I'll certainly looking forward to at least getting to say hello on Sunday."
