JACKSONVILLE, (GaeaTimes.com)- Yesterday’s NLF match between the Tennessee Titans and the Jaguars was a treat for all Titan fans. The team literally made no effort to bring the game on its side right from its beginning, ending with a final score of 30-3 against the Jaguars. All through out the match, the Jaguars could not do much about its submission against the fierce offense of its opponent, the Titans.

The match started with the performance of the strong quarter back Vince Young, who has an impressive quarterback rating of 95.1. He took the control of the game from its first quarter which helped in pinning down the opponents. However, he sprained his knees before the second quarter of the game, after throwing a 23 yards touch down pass to Kenny Britt on the opening drive. Young Vince was immediately replaced by another senior and strong quarter back, Kerry Collins, 37, who has a quarterback rating of 80.2 and a total of 149 pass yards. Soon after the replacement, he threw a short touch down of 2 yards to Bo Scaife. This created a smooth scoring drive that resulted to a goal in the second quarter of the game.
