Joe Biddle - Welcome back to The Tennessean's chat room.
We have a lot to discuss today, the state of the Titans, Tennessee-Alabama and Vanderbilt-South Carolina just for starters. Anything in the NFL and college football are up for grabs and we can go off subject if you want.
We'll start a little early today, so jump in.

So as far as practice goes and with watching game tapes how does VY handle those issues compared to Collins?

12:01

Joe Biddle - VY and Collins go through the same drills in practice, with Collins getting more reps because he is the starter. Vince and Collins also meet at length with Mike Heimerdinger and watch film together. Some QBs, such as Peyton Manning, watch all the film they can while preparing for the next day. I am not aware of how much extra film work Collins or VY do.

Joe, its pretty obvious to me the Titans problems this year began with the front office. The refusal two years ago to not re-sign Albert over a $1m difference, and then the decision to not re-sign Carr this year are the two most important mistakes that have been made and lead to a total lack of pass rush (exposing that perhaps the secondary isn't as talented as we thought) and created the dismal special teams situation that has contributed turnovers and bad field position. We might have one all of the first three games if either one of these two events had not happened. Your thoughts?

Joe Biddle - I can't disagree they messed up on Haynesworth when they had the chance, but I think at that time they were still worried about his lack of maturity and off the field issues. As for Carr, he wanted to go somewhere else where he could play in the secondary more, so he did. It wasn't about money with him. They miss both of them as it turns out.

I'm sure you have heard of the term don't drop the soap well the Titans WR should use that method of don't drop the ball.

12:09

Joe Biddle - Everyone wants to point fingers at KC, but he had five or six passes dropped in the first half of the Pats game. Kerry didn't play well, but it wasn't all his fault. He may have one more year left, but unless all the pieces are around him, he isn't able to do it himself.
