Summer Scramble: AFC South Position Battles to Watch


It's July, the slowest month of the year for the NFL, and it's driving you nuts. You need a fix. A hit. Anything NFL to pull you through the dog days. FanHouse is here to help with an in-depth look at each division that should have you plenty prepared for training camp. We're calling it the Summer Scramble, and today we look at the AFC South's looming position battles.

Titans 30, Vikings 17: the Class of the AFC?

In a year where Tom Brady's done, the Colts are beat up and the Chargers are coming from behind to beat the Raiders, is it crazy to propose that the 4-0 Titans may be the best team in the AFC?

It may be a little early to put that spotlight on them, but they do have one of the league's most dominating defenses, a clock-controlling running game, and, thanks to Kerry Collins, a servicable running game. And as the Vikings saw on Sunday, that's a pretty deadly combo.

Albert Haynesworth created havoc in the middle of the line, like he always does. Haynesworth's six tackles helped hold Adrian Peterson to 80 yards (and seven of Peterson's 18 carries went for no gain or a loss of yardage). Haynesworth's two sacks, and Tony Brown's 1.5 sacks helped ensure that Gus Frerotte never felt fully comfortable in the pocket, and the Titans offensive line kept the Vikings' dominating defensive line from recording any sacks.

Behind Enemy Lines: Talking Cincinnati-Tennessee With a Titans Blogger

As we get ready for the week two matchup of the Titans and Bengals, Jimmy Morris from SB Nation's Tennessee Titans blog Music CIty Miracles was kind enough to offer some insights on Nashville's finest for this week's Behind Enemy Lines feature.

Sportz Assassin: I have to start out by asking this: What's up with the whole Vince Young situation?

Jimmy Morris: The whole thing was blown out of proportion. Jeff Fisher obviously had some questions about VY's mental state or he wouldn't have called the police because he knew what type of firestorm that would create, but I don't think VY was in any type of danger.

Now obviously he needs to work through some mental things while his knee is healing because an NFL QB needs to be the leader of his team, and leaders don't act like VY did on the sideline Sunday.

Sportz: Do you think Tennessee is better right now with Kerry Collins as your QB ... or is this still VY's team?

Jimmy: I have been a firm believer since the Titans drafted VY that this team should live and die with him.
