    The universe has righted itself. It only took 10 years, but Moss made it to the Titans. Wonder if Moss wants #87 to honor Kevin Dyson's memory? Hawkins doesn't need a number.

    I'm ready to go 4WR to be honest. Stack the box against that. VY is in a conservative offense, and still leads the NFL is passer rating. For me, that's an accomplishment. He's been great all year.

    It will take VY and Moss some time to get on the same page. Especially if VY cannot go in practice. But it will come together. This is going to be a good thing. Do I expect things to improve statisically, No. Do I think the Titans just moved into a contender, Yes. This difference will not be stats. or regular season wins. It will be in the playoffs. We now have a balance we did not have before.

    In all this excitement Ive completely forgotten that Vince is limping around town. For now him not practicing is okay, but only because Randy has so much catching up to do. I hope they're both able to get some quality PT together before the Miami game.

    4WR sets would be nice, but Stevens, Britt, Washington and Moss would be one hell of a lineup in my opinion.

    Why Stevens? Sadly he may actually be our best TE right now, but he's so, whats the word,,,, uh plain and slow... That he in no way should make or break a lineup. And whats more odd is you're saying use a blocking TE in a 4WR-set? What!

    Can you imagine if we never passed on him?

    The MCM wouldn't have happened which is a big deal, but we would've won the Super Bowl that year as well as in '03 and '08.

    We would've had McNair, Moss, and Mason in their prime. You wanna talk about unstoppable? That would've been just that.

    Dyson hasn't played in what... 7 years? And only has 18 career touchdowns? What a shame that we passed on Randy in '98.

    you know, Derrick Mason was the original runner on the homerun throwback play. Dyson had never been the man in that position and for the most part didn't even play special teams at all. Mason, if you will recall was injured during the course of the game. It is a fluke coincidence that Dyson happen to run for the six.

    He is a surehanded receiver. Speed is not the most important thing sometime. Jason Witten is much slower than Jared Cook... Who would you rather have?

    Keeping a TE in formations keeps the threat of running more viable, because they are a dual threat, moreso than a pure WR.

    Being in a conservative offense is WHY he has a high passer rating.

    I'm on Vince's side now, but let's be honest- his efficiency would take a huge hit if asked to throw the ball a lot.

    He should still throw more- just not a lot.
