If the Ravens make a trade for McNair right now, then they'll have to pay McNair the 9,000,000 in bonuses that the Titans owe McNair right now. If the Ravens wait until a couple weeks from now for the Titans to cut McNair, they can get him at a cheaper price (they've already discussed a contract). So by waiting, the Ravens will get McNair at a cheaper price, but they'll also have very little time to actually be able to sit down and teach him the playbook. Its a damned if you do, damned if you don't kinda thing.

Either way...the Ravens won't be leading the AFC North anytime soon :devious:

Its true that most QBs dont come back from serious injuries (there's an article on ESPN or SI.com somewhere). But McNair was with a really shitty Titans team the past few years (not that going to the Ravens will be an EXTREME improvement). The dude's a competitor. I hate the Tennessee Oilers and I hate the Baltimore Ravens, but I really do hope that McNair still has some gas left in his tank. If not he's goin out on a baaaad fuckin note.
