08:38 AM ET 08.18 | Quarterback Jake Locker had a chance to convince his coaches -- and perhaps the city of Nashville -- he was ready for a big promotion. In his first NFL start, however, Locker's disappointing performance only complicated matters as the Titans routed the Buccaneers 30-7. He provided more questions than answers about his readiness as coaches move closer to a tough decision between the youngster and veteran Matt Hasselbeck. Locker is having a good training camp and turned in a solid performance coming off the bench against the Seahawks last week, but he didn't look nearly as sharp against the Buccaneers.

Maybe if their running back would decide to show up, that would take some pressure off of him.

Chris Johnson looked good yesterday. He was moving and cutting like his old self. 4.5 rushes a carry and 2 tds.

Be that as it may, it's still pre-season. I base my opinion on what he did last year. You could be right; maybe he is back. I won't be convinced of that, however, until I see two to three games of very good performance.

So - based on this and based on earlier reports that Locker & Hasselback were about even in the QB race...
Sounds like the Titans are screwed.

Actually a little sarcasm DD. It's very hard to get 4.5 rushes per carry.

I feel sorry for these young QBs. Everyone expects another Cam Newton, and if the kid doesn't perform well right out of the box, he gets classified as a bust.
