NASHVILLEZINE

When Kerry Collins threw an interception on the Titans’ first play from scrimmage, LP field exploded in stunned silence. But we watched ol’ KC shake it off – something he has had his fair share of experience of, on and off the field -  and go on to guide Tennessee to three touchdowns and 21 first half points.  Last year, 21 points would have come from seven Rob Bironas field goals!  It is just so refreshing to see this team having fun and congratulating each other. With Indianapolis losing to Jacksonville, we’ve got an early two game lead in the division. Honeymoon’s not over yet…
