As a Titans fan, this is a quite painful loss. McNair, alongside Eddie George defined the Oilers/Titans team. In all honesty, the guy still might have enough left in the tank for two to three more quality seasons, before he runs out of gas, and his body gives out.
It'll be weird seeing McNair in another jersey, although I guess I'll have to get used to it.

Umm, not quite.
Volek is definitely a solid QB, with plenty of experience. If any of you all can remember far enough back, in '04 he passed for like 2,500 yards in 8 starts, and one game he threw nearly 500 yards against the Raiders.
However, I see a situation similar to the '04 Giants, when Warner and Eli were under center. Warner had like eight or nine starts, and then the Giants' office decided it would be beneficial to get Eli some playing time.
On the other hand, the Titans will not be near as good as the '04 Giants (who weren't even that good to begin with). So Vince might have an oppurtunity by the sixth or seventh week of the season to get some needed playing time, that will definitely be beneficial for the Titans team and organization.

So you can say it is a 1 year try out for Billy Volek

I agree with you nearly the whole way. However, as previously stated up in my post, I don't even see Volek playing the whole year because the Titans will not be a good team, and Young would probably be the only source of excitement to Titans and football fans in the Nashville area (which is definitely rare for a [censored]ty team).
