McNair to the Ravens

From the AP

The Tennessee Titans ended their stalemate with quarterback Steve McNair on Wednesday and traded the former MVP to the Baltimore Ravens pending a physical.

"We have granted permission to Baltimore to give Steve McNair a physical, which we expect to take place in the next 24 hours," the team said in a statement.

"Upon passing a physical, final trade terms will be agreed upon."

McNair, who turned 33 in February, was the winningest quarterback in franchise history. In 11 seasons, he went 81-59 and led them to their only Super Bowl in 2000. He and Peyton Manning shared the league's MVP award in 2003.

McNair won a grievance last week that allowed him to return to the team's headquarters and work out after being told he couldn't on April 3. The Titans had been trying to renegotiate a cheaper salary for McNair to lower a $23.46 million salary cap hit.

If he's healthy it makes that the toughest division in football. However that's been the exception rather than the rule past few years. Clock is ticking for Billick now with a true starting QB. Anything less than the playoffs and I think he's gone.

Good move but it's a little late. They had a championship caliber team a couple years ago and were missing just a couple pieces. Now, the defense has lost starters and key players have aged and declined and the offensive line isn't the dominant unit it was before. I think they're a team that could max out at 10-6.

You figure the best they can hope for is 4-2 in their division playing Pittsburgh and Cincinatti twice each. They also play Tampa, San Diego, Denver, Carolina, Atlanta and KC. As well as losing at least one game they shouldn't to a Cleveland, Tennesee or Buffalo and 10-6 seems about right.
