Titans Talk with Pigskin Pundits
I had the chance yesterday to talk a little Titans' football with Rodney from PigskinPundits.com. You can listen or download here.
I have done a few of these before, but this one was especially fun because Rodney is a big Titans' fan himself. Stay tuned to the end of the podcast to here our dicussion about Vince Young.
Take a listen and let me know what you think. Rodney and I are kicking around the idea of doing a Titans' specific podcast every week. Is that something you would be interested in hearing? Let me know.

NFL Power Rankings Time
I didn't get a chance to do this last week because of the holiday. Let's see how far our Tennessee Titans have tumbled.
Now for the power rankings.
On five drives against the Bengals, the Titans entered the red zone. Three times they had goal-to-go situations. And yet they couldn't find the end zone. It'll be one of their many regrets if they don't make the playoffs.
After starting the season off as one of the league's great surprises, the Titans lost their third straight game on Sunday. Tennessee struggled to get anything going against the woeful Cincy defense, while giving up 35 points in the loss. The same week that news of a reported altercation between sidelined defensive leader Albert Haynesworth and Pacman Jones hit the wires, the D gave up 28 points or more for the third straight week. Vince Young sat on the bench by himself after the game, his head in his hands. He explained to reporters after the game, "Thoughts, man, just thoughts, trying to see what's going on, what's the problem, what we need to do to get back to where we need to be at. Why is this all of a sudden happening to us, going back to that bad feeling that we had last year with getting our butt whooped?" The Titans finished the '06 season as one of the best teams in the league. They've been the complete opposite down the stretch this year.
The Titans dropped their third game in a row, this time losing at Cincinnati. Tennessee's defense hasn't been the same without Albert Haynesworth. And if he doesn't come back soon, Tennessee may not make the playoffs; something they were on pace to do with flying colors just a few weeks ago.
Ugh. The Titans are battling for their playoff lives, yet they've dropped three straight, including the most recent loss to Cincinnati. Against the league's most pitiful defense, Vince Young & Company couldn't even get in the endzone.
They got caught in a tough situation against the Bengals, a short week and back-to-back road games. They need to turn it around this week against the Texans.
Vince Young does a whole lot of nothing against the Bengals' awful pass defense, and Tennessee suffers a major blow in Cincy.
The Texans won't make it easy for the Titans to stop their free fall.
No commentary.
In a champagne room somewhere, Pacman smiles.

Friday Morning Update
As I updated yesterday, David Garrard will start for the Jags. Chris from Big Cat Country seems to think the Jags are better with Leftwich at QB. I am not so sure he is right. He does see the team a lot more than I do but it seems to me that Garrard wins games. Just look at the last 2 weeks. 2 weeks ago Leftwich started against the Texans and they lost. Last week Garrard started and they beat the Eagles. If you go back to last year Garrard went 5-1 to lead the Jags to a playoff berth. Leftwich started the playoff game and they were blown out in New England. I understand that in theory Leftwich is a better QB but he is a statue and has an incredibly slow release.
