Titans coach Fisher stick with using Collins as starting QB

While fans are calling on Facebook and Twitter for change, the Tennessee Coach Jeff Fisher did not think it necessary to switch starting job from veteran quarterback Kerry Collins to Vince Young.




Fisher said Monday the difference now is the Titans won 13 games with Collins in 2008, while they hadn’t won a game with Young when the switch was made in 2006.

“Kerry’s not the problem,” Fisher said. “Kerry’s making plays and putting the ball where it needs to be put. I’m not pleased with the interceptions, but other than that going back over the last few weeks, Kerry’s made some great throws. We just need to play better around him.”

Starting only one game in 2008 season, Young lost his starting job to Collins. Although Fisher has said that Young would be the franchise’s starter of the future, the coach had no plan to give him the job in near future. Fisher insists Collins is their best chance to win a game.

Collins is the best choice of Tennessee Titans QB

Since Kerry Collins took over for Vince Young early in the 2008 season, he has been considered a team leader in the Titans. Collins walks into camp on the first day and has command of the huddle from the start. That puts an end to any sort of distractions.




NFL teams that head into camp without controversy at the quarterback position usually hit the ground running. The offense is installed, the players know who their unquestioned leader is and a team can start to form on those hot, muggy August days on the practice field. The way the Titans play football is good and Collins is the best choice for the job. He has the arm strength to throw the ball with anyone in the league, and now that the Titans added some talent and depth at receiver with Nate Washington and rookie Kenny Britt.

The Titans is still led by its attacking defense, but with Collins under center from day one, we can expect their offense to become more prolific.
