NIGHT STALKER Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 His 14th NFL season in the rearview mirror, Kerry Collins said he has two options -- remain a starter, preferably with the Titans, or retire to a life on the farm. The Titans aren't ready to send the veteran quarterback out to pasture. Coach Jeff Fisher made that clear, setting in motion an important offseason for Collins as well as Vince Young. I made my case known, that I'd like to be here and feel that I can be a part of several more good seasons. I have several good years left in me, I know that," Collins said. "I will pack up and go somewhere else. I don't want to, but that's the reality of this business. -- I am a starter in this league and if nothing materializes that way I will retire.'' Just two days into the offseason, Fisher wasn't prepared to declare his plans at quarterback, but he said the Titans would like to re-sign Collins, who's at the end of his two-year contract.

SMC Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Collins is right though. He is the better starter for the Titans. If Vince Young was not the 3rd overall pick and making a ton of money, this would not be a discussion with the Titans: Collins would simply be the starter.

kelticwizard Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I have several good years left in me, I know that," Collins said. "I will pack up and go somewhere else. I don't want to, but that's the reality of this business. -- I am a starter in this league and if nothing materializes that way I will retire.'' So what did Collins say that was wrong? Does anyone seriously think this isn't Collins' team now? Young is out of the starting picture unless he can find a way to work his way in there. Either Collins has to get hurt or something has to happen. Going into next season I cannot think how Tennesse can possibly want anyone to start except Kerry Collins.

If Young was a 2nd or 3rd rounder this wouldn't be an issue because Collins would be the unquestioned starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedin Green Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Collins said nothing wrong. If Young was a 2nd or 3rd rounder this wouldn't be an issue because Collins would be the unquestioned starter. No doubt. And if Young was a 6th or 7th rounder he'd probably be cut by now.
