We couldn't have been more wrong on the Titans. Their defense is great and Cortland Finnegan is one heck of a corner. Without Vince Young, there offense isn't bad either. Umm... our bad! And now a did you know moment with our friends at The World of Isaac.

Did you know that Willis McGahee got a 12 on his Wonderlic Exam. Now, most players will tell you that Wonderlic Scores have little to nothing to do with their football acumen. Well, in McGahee's case, its probably not true. One of the bigger complaints about him in Buffalo was his inability to remember plays. It was one of the reasons they were so willing to part ways. And now in Baltimore, the same problem is arising. McGahee's troubles have gotten to the point where plays have to be signaled into him individually because he just doesn't know the playbook. I'm guessing this isn't a recipe for success with a team that has struggled to score points for years. Bad move Baltimore.

This Did you know Moment was brought to you by Hooked on Phonics.

My Sports Rumors on the Ravens: Despite their loss last night, I think the Baltimore Ravens could be a major sleeper in the AFC. Joe Flacco brings a new dimension to the offense that they've never had, a passing attack. While making numerous rookie mistakes, the kid showed up ready to play on the big stage. If they make it to the playoffs teams in the AFC better be scared because this kid will only get better as the year goes on.

The Sports Dollar on the Jets: They may not be the best team in their conference or division, but they sure as hell are more than compelling to watch. Not only do they have arguably the greatest quarterback in the history of the game playing for them, but they are capable of putting up 56 points? So much for the slow learning curve for the old man, eh?

The Blue Workhorse on the Vince Young's old team: The Tennessee Titans just find a way to win week in and week out. Defense and quality QB play wins championships...just ask Baltimore.
