Tennessee owner Bud Adams isn't taking credit for the decision to start Vince Young and bench Kerry Collins, even if the move helped snap the Titans' winless skid.

The owner is giving Young a high grade for his first start since the 2008 season opener.

"He looked all right out there," Adams said. "I think he's coming around a lot. I think there's some things that happened to him early in his career that didn't let him concentrate on football. I think he realized he needed to work at it hard. And he has shown that."

Young threw for a touchdown, Chris Johnson set a franchise record by rushing for 228 yards, and the Titans won their first game of the season by routing the Jacksonville Jaguars 30-13 Sunday.
