Reading the coverage of the Tennessee Titans ...

Zach Mettenberger already seemed comfortable on center stage, writes Jim Wyatt of The Tennessean. "By no means am I a Tom Brady or a Peyton Manning -- this is going to be my first game,” Mettenberger said. “So really I have to get the ball out of my hand quick, avoid turnovers and put the ball in the hands of guys who can make plays for us. …I don't want to be a huge failure. I want to be successful, the coaches want me to be successful.”

Jake Locker was never Ken Whisenhunt’s guy, writes David Climer of The Tennessean. And if you’re Whisenhunt’s guy, you’re set.

To which I say: Climer speculates that the way Locker took off and ran in the Cleveland game didn’t sit well with Whisenhunt. "I'd gotten away from the type of football that I'd always played that allows me to enjoy playing the game and being successful playing the game,” Locker said then. I, too, think Locker playing to his strength ran counter to Whisenhunt’s core quarterback beliefs.

The Titans hope Mettenberger’s big arm opens up the offense, says John Glennon of The Tennessean. Kendall Wright says you can hear the rookie’s passes.

Mettenberger said he wants to be Ben Stiller’s character from "Dodge Ball" for Halloween. Pictures made the rounds on Twitter. Wyatt wrote a bit about it.

The place Mettenberger was selected in the draft shouldn't define him as a prospect, writes Music City Miracles.
