    This is absolutely crazy.


    He was always a great, hard-working guy.



    Rip.


    As I said in the other thread, I'm curious to see what becomes of this...

    I'm speechless. There is no way McNair deserved to go out like this. RIP!

    Always seemed like a hard worker and a nice guy. Should have been able to enjoy that retirement.

    if Bud Adams didn't move the Oilers, Steve McNair would still be alive.

    I'm incredibly saddened by this news. He was my favorite player for a long time. He was even my very first draft pick in my first fantasy football season. I was a Titans fan because of him. He was an all-time class act, and one hell of a QB. A true example of how black QBs can star in the NFL with both their legs and their arms. He is the greatest player in the Titans brief history.

    Hopefully your jersey is retired, and good luck to his son who will plays WR as a senior in HS. I hope to see him in the NFL one day.

    Damn. I still remember how excited I was when the Oilers drafted this guy. He turned out to be a great nfl QB as well.
