It's more about a mind-set that we get in when we're out there, and he's a big part of that,'' tight end Todd Heap said. ``He deserves a lot of credit for what's going on.'' McNair enjoyed a fine 11-year run with the Tennessee Titans before the Ravens gave up a fourth-round draft pick to get him in Baltimore. The deal turned the Ravens into a Super Bowl contender - and rescued the career of the 2003 co-MVP. ``It's meant a lot. They saved me from turmoil in Tennessee, and I app |

| (MySportsbook) - Stop me if you've heard this story. Vince Young, who carried his University of Texas Longhorns to a national championship last year over USC, once again rallied his Tennessee Titans to victory. "We've seen what he's done the last three weeks," acknowledged head coach Jeff Fisher. "He can come back and make those plays that you need to make. We've got to become a better team to where we don't put him in those positions on a weekly basis." On Sunday, Young scampered 39 yards into the end zone |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Randy Starks agreed in court Tuesday to continue anger management counseling, and a domestic assault charge against him will be dismissed if he has no further incidents with the woman involved. ``It's not an admission of guilt,'' Starks' attorney Roger May said.
