08:01 AM ET 12.16 | Cortland Finnegan set aside his in-your-face attitude Thursday in favor of a more reflective take on his time in Tennessee. He's excited that the Titans are in the playoff hunt with three games to play, but he can't keep a more sobering thought out of his mind. He thinks his days with the Titans are numbered. "I thought having a daughter was one of the most emotional times in my life," Finnegan said. "But the thought of not being able to put on a Titans uniform again ... it is finally starting to hit me that the end is probably near. It is like you have three weeks left and they say you are going to be fired, and you don't hear anything leading up to that. You just do the best you can with what you've got."

That would be too bad. He's has another good year. Plays a lot of positions. A good person in community outreach. That said, it is a business.

He used to seem like a "dirty" player, but if what you said is true, I'll take him over that bum ass Deangelo Hall.

He still has that "edge", but I think that butt kicking he got from Andre Johnson probably reeled that attitude back in.

Yeah throwing the flag on his holding penalty on Welker shows he still hasn't learned a thing
