During his team’s winless streak to start the season, Titans coach Jeff Fisher was clear about his starting quarterback — Kerry Collins, no questions asked.

Coming off the bye weekend and heading into Sunday’s game against the Jaguars, however, Fisher isn’t making the same commitment.
“We’ve had a week to do some different things and considering the circumstances we’re in right now with the record, there’s things that you need to do differently,” Fisher said on Monday. “Let’s just say I am not going to be as specific and open-ended from a competitive standpoint.”
Fisher made it clear he remains confident in Collins, who has completed 54.8 percent of his passes with five touchdowns and eight interceptions. Vince Young came off the bench the past two games for mop-up duty.

For the second week in a row Titans quarterback Kerry Collins watched the end of a game from the sideline, the outcome well out of his control.



Vince Young replaced Collins in the third quarter of an eventual 59-0 loss to the Patriots, and the 15th-year pro said he is not sure what happens next, now that the Titans are 0-6.

“I am not going to assume anything at this point,’’ Collins said. “I still feel like I am the quarterback of this team and this is my team. I give us a chance to win when I go out there.’’

Coach Jeff Fisher would not discuss his plans at quarterback after the game.

While Coach Jeff Fisher has publicly backed veteran Kerry Collins, it’s time for a decision on when to replace the 15th-year veteran with Vince Young.

The Titans will owe Young $14.2 million if he is on the team next year.

Since he hasn’t played any significant minutes since throwing two interceptions early in last year’s season opener, the Titans need to evaluate Young, and there is no time like 0-5 and counting.

Fisher inserted Young with 7:26 on the game clock Sunday night, the Titans trailing the Colts 31-9. When informed by offensive coordinator Mike Heimerdinger he was going in, Young turned and looked at the scoreboard. Young’s body language said he wasn’t interested in mop-up duty.

Kerry Collins is entrenched as the Titans starting quarterback, so unless the 15th-year pro is injured or has a streak of poor performances, former No. 3 overall pick Vince Young will spend another season on the bench.

There is a way, however, the Titans could utilize both players — the Wildcat, the trendy offensive formation formerly known as the Wing-T.

Its veer options, direct snaps and other trickery offer increased opportunities to showcase players whose unique skills allow them to scramble or throw, aggravating defenses.

Sounds a lot like Young, whose playmaking abilities earned him NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year honors in 2006.

If Young is excited about the potential to be part of a Wildcat, however, he’s keeping quiet about it. While he recognizes the many ways the scheme fits his game, the fourth-year pro said during the preseason he has no rooting interest in trying it out.

Titans Coach Jeff Fisher hasn’t ruled out starting Vince Young in a preseason game, but it won’t be Friday night’s meeting with the Cowboys.


Kerry Collins will start against Dallas, Fisher said Sunday. But after a sluggish performance in Saturday’s 27-20 victory over the Buccaneers, the first-team offense might play the entire first half, with Young replacing Collins at some point.

Coaches want to evaluate Young in a variety of situations as he battles Patrick Ramsey for the No. 2 quarterback role.

Vince Young has done lots of talking in recent weeks about wanting to play elsewhere if he isn’t starting for Tennessee this season and what really happened last year when police were called to search for the missing quarterback.

On Wednesday, he found himself busy with some damage control. “Every time I say something it is always going to get blown out of proportion, so I just have to live with it. That is the life of Vince, and I just got to live with it,” Young said. The NFL’s 2006 Offensive Rookie of the Year lost his starting job after getting hurt in the Titans’ season opener of 2008. He sprained his knee, and coach Jeff Fisher handed the job to Kerry Collins as the Titans went an NFL-best 13-3. Collins was signed to a two-year deal in March that kept him as the starter.
