The Tennessee Titans season is quickly going into the toilet as they are 0-5 on the season.

With their offense struggling it is time for quarterback Vince Young to get a second chance.

The problem with the offense is that teams are now keying on taking away the running game, which they relied upon to win.

With quarterback Kerry Collins past his prime, along with the Titans having above average wide receivers, the passing game isn’t getting the job done.

The difference between Young and Collins is that Young is a mobile quarterback that can scramble and Collins is the classic pocket passing quarterback.

Ypung will be able to make plays the Titans desperately need.

In the end this their only viable alternative.

The Indianapolis Colts offense is a prolific offense that encompasses a lot of weapons.

It looks like the Colts just got more dangerous as already rookie wide receiver Austin Collie is having an impact.

Sunday against the Tennessee Titans Collie caught eight passes for 97 yards and two touchdowns.

Collie currently leads rookie wide receivers as first round picks Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin has 12 receptions and Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Percy Harvin has 18 receptions.

In the end as long as president and general manager Bill Polian is with the team the Colts will keep winning.

The Jacksonville Jaguars found their number one wide receiver in Mike Sims-Walker.

With the Jaguars also having tight end Mercedes Lewis you have to wonder how good can the Jaguars get.

The Jaguars offense has been struggling for a while as they have not had a number one wide receiver for several years.

Now, with the emergence of Sims-Walker the Jaguars look like they are regaining their form from a couple years ago.

In the end as long as the Jaguars stay healthy they will the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts for the division.

The Indianapolis Colts announced today that they have signed running back Edgerin James.

For once it will be good to see a player retire with the he began with.

In the National Football League veteran players that are passed theie prime get cut usually by the team that originally drafted them.

The reason is that their salaries are so high keeping them cannot be justified unless they take a paycut, but that never happens due to ego.

With the Colts already having running back Joesph Addai.

That means James will be his backup at what is probably the veteran minimum plus some incentives.

In the end it is a shrewd move, because James knows the playbook already.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning has already had a story book National Football League career.

With Manning getting into the later part of his career just how many more Superbowls can Manning win?

Manning already has one Superbowl under his belt as he led the Colts to it in 2006.

The problem with the Colts is that the defense has always been the weak unit.

For years the Colts did not have a good set of defensive tackles, which allowed teams to run the ball and keep the Colts offense off the field.

Only this past season did the Colts finally take a defensive tackle within the first three round of the National Football League Draft as they took defensive tackle Fili Moala in the second round.

The other big problem is that strong safety Bob Sanders, who is an integral part of the defense, is always hurt.

In the end most likely Manning will never win another Superbowl before his career ends.

Many people in the media are blaming the departure of defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth for the Tennessee Titans problems on defense.

With the run defense current ranking Haynesworth isn’t the problem.

Going into their week four game against the Jacksonville Jaguars the Titans are ranked second in the National Football League in run defense.

The Titans are only giving up 60.7 yards total in regards to the running game.

However, the Titans defense is giving up 274.7 yards passing, which is ranked 29th.

So, what is the problem with the pass defense?

The problem is that defensive ends Kyle Vanden Bosch and Jevon Kearse through three games have combined for only one sack.

In the end once the Titans find a way to put more pressure on the quarterback they should be fine.

The AFC South for the first time in many years looks to be wide open.

That means the Houston Texans have their best chance ever at winning the division.

The Texans offensively are one of the most dangerous teams to face with the talent they have on that side of the football.

The defense though is their problem as they from time to time give up the big play.

However, the offense is so good that they compensate for this by getting in shoot outs from time to time.

Their biggest problem is keeping quarterback Matt Schaub healthy as in his first two years he missed four games each year to knee sprain.

In the end if the Texans keep Schaub healthy they have.a great chance at.the post season.

The Jacksonville Jaguars looks like they are heading for another horrible season.

Amongst the two losses a great story involving a Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver is starting to unfold before our eyes.

Mike Sims-Walker was taken in the third round of the 2007 National Football League Draft by the Jaguars.

However, a knee injury in the fourth preseason game erased his rookie season.

Then again in 2008 Sims-Walker suffered through several issues as he suffered a knee infection and several tragedies to friends and family, which included his father dying in December of 2008 to colon cancer.

Through all of that in the nine games that Sims Walker played in he caught 16 passes for 217 yards.

This year week two Sims-Walker caught six passes for 106 yards and a touchdown.

In the end the Jaguars look to finally have one of their own superstar wide receivers in the making.

The Houston Texans have a solid quarterback in Matt Schaub who already has a reputation of being injury prone.

Already being injured this season and the Tennessee Titans their opponent Sunday can Schaub hold up.

The Texans had a problem protecting Schaub as he was sacked twice.

The Titans do not need to blitz as much as their front four of defensive ends Jevon Kearson and Kyle Vanden Bosch with defensive tackles Tony Brown and Jason Jones.

In their regular season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers they combined for three sacks.

In the end if it will be a miracle of Schaub comes out untouched.

The Indianapolis Colts lost wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez for what looks like to be 2-6 weeks.

With no other proven wide receiver on the roster the question is can the Colts compete?

The problem is that without a proven commodity at the other wide receiver teams will now double team wide receiver Reggie Wayne and tight end Desmond Clark.

On top of that the Colts face three tough opponents in the next three weeks in the Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks, and the Tennessee Titans.

With the Colts playing the New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens, and the Tennessee Titans in the second half of the season this stretch of games will most likely be the defining moment of their season.

In the end it looks like the Colts might not make the playoffs for the first time since 2001.
