Ask Jimmy from Music City Miracles

Hello all,

Jimmy from Music City Miracles here to answer any questions you have about the Tennessee Titans.  This is a dangerous game for the Titans because they have had a couple of weeks of listening to everyone telling them how good they are, and they have a HUGE game with the Colts on Monday Night Football next week. 

Anyway, that is where we are.  Please post any questions below, and I, or someone from the site, will be glad to provide an answer.

 

[Ed. Note: There's a FanPost at MCM asking us questions.  Definitely check it out.  -Primetime]

What's the defensive line's

story? Is VB going to be healthy? Who will play?

by Joel Thorman on Oct 15, 2008 8:04 AM CDT reply actions  

They have been really

quiet on the KVB front. I have heard that it is a tear and he is out 3-6, but the team is saying he has a chance to play Sunday. We will learn a lot more after practice today.

True or False

The Titans will re-sign Kerry Collins after the season.

by Joel Thorman on Oct 15, 2008 8:04 AM CDT reply actions  

Good question

A lot depends on how this season plays out, but if there is another team willing to give him starter money the Titans will let him go. They can’t afford to pay him when they have all that money tied up in VY.

The Titans don’t plan on him being a long term solution, but he is the best we have right now.

How soon can VY be cut?

Or traded without putting yourselves in salary cap hell?

by Joel Thorman on Oct 15, 2008 8:33 AM CDT reply actions  

After next season..

..but I don’t think they are willing to give up on him just yet.

His cap number is $2.1 M next year. At this point, I think they could lose him BEFORE next season and not sweat it.

Though I don’t know why they would over $2.1M. He knows the system, and it’s not like he’s a total bum and a loser. For $2.1M, he is at least a reasonably good back-up.

But his guaranteed money

Is $25.7 million so wouldn’t that be accelerated to 2009 if released now? They’ve only paid like half the guarantee so far.

by Joel Thorman on Oct 15, 2008 11:18 AM CDT up reply actions  

I don't think that's correct, but I could be wrong.

My understanding—granted, it comes from Peter King—is that he has a fairly low cap number next year and no guaranteed money beyond next year. From that standpoint, releasing him NOW might not be a good idea, but then again, no one wants to release him now, and I have no idea why anyone would be in favor of that. Because at this point he’s a sunk cost and a helluva good back-up QB.

Just how bad

is your d-line going to make our o-line look?

by Eric Allen on Oct 15, 2008 8:49 AM CDT reply actions  

Well

The Titans d-line is very good. There is a chance that KVB won’t be able to play in this game, but Albert Haynesworth, the best defensive tackle in football, will be in there plugging up the middle. The Titans’ defense is built around the front 4, so I hope they make your line look really bad.

Would you trade us

Cortland Finnegan and Albert Haynesworth for Tony G and Larry Johnson? When you guys where in the salary cap jail a few years back did you ever lose faith in Jeff Fisher? And how many current players on the roster came from all those rookie free agents you brought in?

Go to Wide World of Roto for all your fantasy news!

by JasonM on Oct 15, 2008 8:58 AM CDT reply actions  

1. No

2. I personally never lost faith in Fisher because I knew the struggles weren’t his fault, but there were a lot of people who did. There is still a segment of Titans’ fans that hate Fisher Ball. I love it.

3. There aren’t a lot of undrafted free agents on the roster, but the large majority of the guys were late draft picks. Floyd Reese, the former Titans’ GM, was very good at finding talent in the late rounds, but not so much at finding it in the early rounds.

So this sits at the top. Thanks!

by Joel Thorman on Oct 15, 2008 2:07 PM CDT reply actions  

Are the Titans

Planning to involve VY in the offense at some point? Assuming he’s healthy (or close to it) will he play any sort of role?

by Joel Thorman on Oct 15, 2008 6:00 PM CDT reply actions  

They are mum about that

but my guess is you will see him in some type of “Wildcat” or whatever you want to call it formation.

Who could stomp someone's head harder?

Albert Haynesworth or the Lord of the Dance Micheal Flatley? Sure Haynesworth has the bulk but Flatley can really move those feet.

How come the Volunteers...

are dominated by the Pac-10 year in and year out.

I hate the Vols

So I am glad to see it happen.

No contest

Why waste the man’s time with such ridiculous questions? Kerry Collins unquestionably

by KansasCityShuffle on Oct 15, 2008 6:54 PM CDT up reply actions  

Seen it all already

And that would have been just one morning for Collins in his heyday, except the women were actually hot

Are Titans tix hard to come by?

I got this boy Funky Dave in Memphis who I’d love to drive down and catch a game with. Whats the tailgate like down there?

by HIV 2 Elway on Oct 15, 2008 6:54 PM CDT reply actions  

Tickets are very hard to come by

The tailgating atmosphere is good. I bet it is better in KC, but it is still pretty good here.

I thought you were talking about ticks at first. You know, like Huard’s head bob. lol. Always looking for that winning edge!

Hey PT

Someone over there predicted a 35-0 blowout, I do not think that is crazy, do you?

by Eric Allen on Oct 15, 2008 9:35 PM CDT reply actions  

Seeing how the Bucs handled the Panthers

and the Panthers handed us a new one, I think its entirely possible

by KansasCityShuffle on Oct 15, 2008 9:50 PM CDT up reply actions  

Maybe

Well, I’ll never say that’s realistic because it doesn’t happen often (yes, I remember 2 weeks ago) but I see more of a 20-3 type game.

by Joel Thorman on Oct 15, 2008 9:56 PM CDT up reply actions  

Chiefs with a 22-17 upset

5 FG’s for Nick the Kick and a Croyle TD pass to Tony G.

Go to Wide World of Roto for all your fantasy news!

No

but I was in my MMA class on Monday and took a knee to the bridge of my nose, my face is all black and blue, no blood though.
