The Titans signed 44 year old Gary Anderson to replace kicker Joe Nedney (who's out for the entire season due to suffering an injury in the Raiders game this past Sunday).
Not a bad deal ... at least we can say that we got the NFL's all time leading scorer with us for a season.

It's also a good thing that you have a guy in Hentrich with the demonstrated leg strength for kick-offs and 50+ yard field goals. I'm not sure that Gary is up for those any longer.
If I remember correctly he was the kicker that dashed the Miami Dolphins hopes of winning the AFC East last year, than the next week Adam Vinetieri put them out of the playoffs all together.I think Gary Anderson still has some steam left in him.Man I remember him kicking when I was in high school.
The Vikes better the hell hope that Elling doesn't screw up this year because Gary was our back-up plan. Again.
Wisconsin Badgers: 2-0 (Uh...Akron? Defense, don't allow that many points ever again. Now if Lee Evans could score from the one every week, that'd be great)
Minnesota Vikings: 1-0 (Had me scared there at the end, but the defense was mega-solid, and the offense looked good. Dare I hope for a good year?)
