We're pretty deep and WR. If anything, we need Oline help.rayzor2004 said:Why or why are you spending money on another quarterback Reese??? QB's are the least of our problems, how bout some depth at WR and O line?????:gag:
Hoffa said:All these good reasons to sign Collins were there to sign him before Camp.
I just don't know why they've waited this long to bring him in now.
Banger21 said:I think signing Collins would have made sense if the Titans were planning on being in playoff contention this season. I know its only the preseason, but there certainly aren't many signs of the Titans being a playoff team this season. I don't see a reason to bring in Collins, Volek should be under center until we fall out of contention, then let VY take over and get some valuable experience. The Titans could be filling other holes instead with that money, even if its not alot.
TitanJeff said:Once the #3 comes in, I don't think you can play either of the active QBs again.
Puck said:why's that ?
i don't remember that being an official rule
what if you're #1 gets a temporary injury or dehydrates
then you're #2 comes in and gets knocked out from a concussion
so the #3 comes in and is inneffective
let's assume this is pre-half
so, after the half, you're #1 is rehydrated ....... (or whatever)
why then couldn't you re-install your starter ?
rcarie said:IMO, they are signing him because Volek looks like crap and Young isn't ready. Not to say I like it, but we've got to do something...
Thats not exactly the case. Several years ago, McNair was injured, Neil O'Donnel got the start at a rowdy Pittsburg game. In the fourth quarter, Neil was hurt, McNair who was the emergency QB, came in and led the Titans to a victory, throwing a TD pass to TE Erron Kinney. Billy Volek(who would have been the 2nd string QB, due to McNair's injury)Slackmaster said:The "official rule" part only is valid if your #3 QB is among your inactive players for the game.
If your #3 is listed inactive, but plays because the others go down, you can't just use him as relief.
The raiders got him as their franchise QB.
Soxcat said:I still don't get this "Volek looks like crap" mentality. Volek has played in what amounts to just over one games worth of snaps and is 24-38 for 266 yards. Thats 63% completions. Volek had a 17 yarder to Wade and a 36 yarder to Troupe taken away because of holds by Pillar in Sat game. Volek also had that picture perfect pass to Bennett that Bennett couldn't hang on to in the first game. That was another 40+ yards he got screwed out of.
The fact we can't run the ball doesn't exactly help our offense sustain drives either.
TitanJeff said:Here's the rule from 1995:
The emergency (third) quarterback may now enter the game in just the fourth quarter, regardless if the other two quarterbacks are able to play. This means that if the third string quarterback enters the game, the first and/or second quarterback may re-enter, unlike the past two seasons where the emergency quarterback would only play off the first two were unable to resume play.
