Coach Jeff Fisher will announce Thursday that Vince Young will replace Collins as the Titans' starting quarterback, the Tennessean reports. Recommendation: Makes sense. The Titans are 0-6 with Collins under center, so why not see what they have in the once highly-touted Vince Young? We'll assume that the Titans would prefer not to shuffle QB's in and out, so it will probably take an injury to Young for Collins to get back on the field. |

QB Kerry Collins, who helped the Titans to a 13-3 mark this season, has been benched in favor of Vince Young, the former first-round pick who had the support of 86-year-old owner Bud Adams. Collins had completed 108 of 197 passes for 1,071 yards with five touchdowns and eight interceptions this season, but after a 59-0 embarrassment two weeks ago in the snow at New England, the situation was ripe for change of any sort. Collins admitted as much.
"I certainly know I could have played better," Collins said. "But just like last year, I didn't take all the credit when we were winning, and I don't think it's all my fault this year either. But having said that, I could have played better. We're 0-6, and heads are gonna roll, and more times than not, it's the quarterback." |
