Patrick Hruby of ESPN.com has the list out this morning of how the NFL teams ranked in cost per win last season. The Titans ranked 21st in the league spending $121.71 million which equals out to $20.29 million per win. Of course the blurb on the page is about Randy Moss who allegedly played for the Titans last season:
Claimed Randy Moss on waivers, then paid his remaining $3.4 million salary for 80 receiving yards and zero TDs.
Of course had they not added Moss, which they basically didn't, they would have spent just $19.71 per win. Strangely enough, that still would have put them 21st, and we wouldn't have had those two weeks where we watched One Clap 1,000 times- so it was worth it in my opinion.
Top five and bottom five after the jump.
