    During the Titans/Cardinals game.

    8-13 for 71 yards and 4 rushes for 20 yards.

    McNair was hurt and Volek started. I am not sure if Volek got hurt as well but MM got some playing time today.

    Awesome! Thanks for the news. I'm really happy for him.

    Now, what is Rohan Davey up to?

    Rohan was released by the Cardinals just last week with Kurt Warner now available again.

    I am just speculating, so don't go off on me, but did he ever have a case of a bad temper?

    Because there HAS to be a reason he never made it big in the NFL... He dominated the Europe league, but he can never seem to find a regular home...

    What I've been told is that Rohan asked to be traded/released from the Pats because he wanted to go to a place like Arizona where he would have a chance to play.

    Well, now that McCown has started to play well that isn't really possible, so I wouldn't be surprised if he asked to be released there too. He'll probably sign with someone later in the year who has injury problems (maybe Tenn if McNair and Volek are out) or maybe wait til after the season and sign somewhere where the QB situation is not really set (NYJ, Detriot, Houston).

    Billy Volek went out with a concussion. Mauck looked really good. He had 2-3 passes dropped, and also was under tons of pressure from the D line. He did a real good job of scrambling and got a couple of first downs when he took off. He looked much faster then what I remembered.

    He's had a few years to heal and rehab from the foot injury, he's probably close to the speed he had back in '01 now.

    It could be that he just isn't as good as we all remember him to be. The NFL is a totally different level than NFL Europe.

    A lot of big time names first proved their stuff in NFL Europe. It's considered somewhat of a training grounds. He did very well there and hopefully will catch on somewhere here.
