ESPN AFC South blogger Paul Kuharsky stated on NFL Live Wednesday that he believes the Titans' quarterback job is truly open to competition.
A Nashville columnist recently suggested the QB battle was a mirage, and that Matt Hasselbeck will win. "I think there's an inherent advantage in being the incumbent," Kuharsky acknowleged. "Matt Hasselbeck has the experience. The Titans' schedule starts very hard. But beyond that, I really do think they're telling the truth. Where they're saying 'we're throwing it open to these two guys. They have equal chances to win.' And if the kid (Jake Locker) with a little bit more moxie and who can do more with his legs outperforms Hasselbeck -- or their gut feeling tells them it's time to turn it over -- they're not gonna hesitate to turn it over to the guy who they feel is the future of the franchise."
