Johnson unanimous for All-Pro

Chris Johnson didn’t get any votes for MVP. He didn’t miss any for The Associated Press 2009 NFL All-Pro team.

The 2,000-yard rusher from the Tennessee Titans was the only unanimous choice for the squad, which was announced Thursday. He’s joined in the backfield by Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, who won an unprecedented fourth Most Valuable Player Award last week, when only quarterbacks received votes.

“That’d be a good thing,” said Johnson, who won the Offensive Player of the Year award Wednesday. “Because I feel like if you put a season out there, out of those dudes who got votes or the dudes who won, I wouldn’t feel they had a better season than I had, and broke as many records in one season that I had.”

Young Is AFC’s Offensive Player Of The Week

Titans quarterback Vince Young on Tuesday was named the AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his gutsy performance against the Arizona Cardinals last Sunday at LP Field.

Young threw for a career-high 387 yards in the Titans’ 20-17 come-from-behind victory – a comeback that was completed on the last play of the game after a long drive.

Starting on their own one-yard line with 2:37 remaining in the game, Young led the Titans on an 18-play, 99-yard drive and completed the go-ahead 10-yard touchdown to rookie wide receiver Kenny Britt as time expired.

The Titans offense converted three fourth downs during the final drive en route to their fifth consecutive victory (which follows six straight losses to open the season).

Young completed a career-high 27 passes on 43 attempts, including three passes over 25 yards and a long of 51 yards.

Chris Johnson's speed can't be matched

Titans Coach Jeff Fisher warned the 49ers that Chris Johnson’s speed could not be replicated in practice

One day after the second-year pro rushed for a franchise-record 228 yards against the Jaguars, Fisher relayed a story about a unique method one team employed to prepare for Hall of Famer Barry Sanders’ speed, quickness and ability to change direction in a split second.

“Teams tried to do all kinds of things,” Fisher said. “I remember one team in particular brought a chicken out on the field and let the defense chase the chicken around, desperately trying to simulate the type of speed and quickness.”

Titans’ Fisher not saying if it’s Collins or Young at QB

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.

Titans’ struggles tied to sluggish offense

Asked this week how the Titans managed to tumble into a winless streak after producing the NFL’s best record last season, quarterback Kerry Collins paused for several seconds.

“You know, um … that’s something we’re working on this week,” Collins said.
He won’t have to search long for the answer when it comes to the offense. It’s quite simple, actually. The Titans rank last in the league in time of possession, a statistic that illustrates the impact of mistakes.
According to Titans Coach Jeff Fisher, everybody shares in the blame, from wide receivers and the offensive line to running backs and Collins. Their combined actions have derailed multiple possessions.

Titans quarterback Kerry Collins doesn’t expect a demotion

If the Titans are considering a change at quarterback, they haven’t told starter Kerry Collins about it.

Coach Jeff Fisher said he would consider “minor roster changes” during the bye week, but he’s not expected to replace Collins with Vince Young before the Nov. 1 game against the Jaguars.
“I haven’t gotten any indication from him of a change,” Collins said Wednesday.
Collins has struggled so far, throwing five touchdowns and eight interceptions. The Titans (0-6) are ranked 24th in passing offense. Young came off the bench the past two games.

Titans vs. Patriots: Collins benched again after ineffective start

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.
