(on if the Titans-Steelers game is still a special rivalry despite not being division rivals or if it is just a measuring stick of where the two teams are at)
It’s probably more of a measuring stick because they are perennially a good, competitive football team. It’s kind of a window to how you stack up against the best in the AFC.(on how the Titans are different with Vince Younghttp://www.titansonline.com/assets/nflimg/icon-article-link.gif (http://www.titansonline.com/team/roster/vince-young/231f1ce2-3499-49d3-8cc1-4cd9857da701/) at quarterback as opposed to Kerry Collinshttp://www.titansonline.com/assets/nflimg/icon-article-link.gif (http://www.titansonline.com/team/roster/kerry-collins/5aab2a78-008b-4d1c-bfc1-7831afc1a00d/))
I think their offense still flows through Chris Johnsonhttp://www.titansonline.com/assets/nflimg/icon-article-link.gif (http://www.titansonline.com/team/roster/chris-johnson/845a0bae-872b-40f5-9822-5e346f78edc7/), as it should. He has a strong argument for being the best player in the world right now. They have some concept things, some speed option things, some designed things that highlight Vince’s athleticism and pedigree, but largely their personality is their personality and their offense flows through 28.

(on how different the Steelers are with Dennis Dixon at quarterback as opposed to a veteran quarterback)
We are probably different for multiple reasons right now. It’s the early portion of the season, we are developing our personality, if you will, we’re still developing from a skill standpoint....................
