Tennesse Titans Have Quarterback Issues This Season

When Vince Young was let go the Tennessee Titans had no idea that Jeff Fischer was going to leave or Kerry Collins their starting quarterback would either. This has put the Tennessee Titans in a real bad position when the strike is settled. Right now the Titans are looking at Chris Simms and Rusty Smith as their quarterbacks. This has to send shivers now the fans of the Titans right now.

With the strike going on the Tennessee Titans cannot really do anything, so there hands are tied right now. It is a possibility they could talk Collins out of retirement, but you just do not know. Getting rid of Vince Young really put this team in a bad spot. With the strike about ready to end it looks like the Titans have a lot of work to do. One of the main things to do is find a quarterback, but there are other teams whom have the same idea. It will be interesting to see how this plays out for the Tennessee Titans.

Is The NFL Strike Nearing The End?

NFL Football fans are hoping the NFL strike is winding down as both sides seem poised to settle it. Many people thought that it would end close to this time and I was one of them as well. The NFL and it's owners stand to lose a lot of money along with the players if they do not reach a deal. It's sad that it even came to this and the NFL fans had to sit through this, but hopefully it is about over.

It will be good to talk about football once again with the season basically only a few months away. The Hall Of Fame game is in August and that really is not too far away. If the NFL wants a pre-season they will need to settle by next week. Maybe soon we can start writing and talking about NFL football instead of the strike. There are really no winners in the strike and having NFL football again is what everyone wants anyways.

NFL, Players Association Getting Forced Mediation

Even though the NFL and The Players Association is not happy with it Judge Susan Richard Nelson told the NFL and NFL players that she will impose forced mediation on them early this week. The problem is both sides do not care about get a quick resolve in all of this no matter what they say in public.

The real losers in all of this is the fans who have to sit through this hoping there is an NFL season this fall. I think a good idea would be for fans all to boycott the first game of the season when it gets resolved. Imagine what an embarrassment the NFL and the Players would have if in Week 1 no fans showed up for the games. It will never happen, but something to think about as a statement from the fans about what they were put through.
