Why we are doomed

The off-season seemed to go pretty well for the Titans, barring the McNair tragedy. I liked most of the moves made. Losing Albert was a bit of a bummer, but when you take the money into account, it was inevitable. Coaches stayed stable except for D-coord, and I like Chuckie. A bit shy with media and in person, more so than the Schwartz, but I'm sure he's just as intense a coach as he was a player. Draft class seems promising. Now after the first pre-season game I continue to be impressed. Nate Washington looks like he could be huge for us, and Titans have epic bad luck in the WR department, whether it's draft of FA signing. The fact that NW may actually work out for us is a bit mind bending. Even if Britt slams a car door on his hand this weekend, or ruins his hamstring getting out of a hot tub, it still looks good for the receiving corps. I'm sure the running game will be there, the passing offense looks to be better, and I think the secondary will be better. D-line is the only thing that gives me much hesitation, and that's prob gonna be pretty solid too, if not quite as good as last year. VY is still surrounded with controversy, but this year it's only controversy surrounding a backup. Unless Kerry slips on a banana peel, it's page two stuff - a side-show.

So therefore, clearly, something really bad is going to happen. With all these positive signs, there's a snake in the grass somewhere. Will the players go on strike in the middle of the season? WIll Fisher shave his 'stache causing a five game losing streak? WIll Kerry Collins start dating Jessica Simpson? Will T-Rac, the most deadly mascot in the NFL, run a cart over Chris Johnson's foot? I dunno, but all this good karma is gonna boomerang and bite us in the ass somewhere.
