One of the top five stories of this season, easily.

What is "Clip Reel?"

Pop quiz, hot shot: what's the biggest storyline in the NFL this season? Some contenders: Tom Brady's injury reshuffling the landscape (no question); Matt Ryan's development with the Falcons (valid); how quickly the Miami Dolphins have turned the corner (legit); how legitimately good the New York Giants are (of course) and perhaps our favorite, the undefeated Tennessee Titans. They're led NOT by two-time Rose Bowl superman Vince Young, but rather journeyman Kerry Collins, who was playing in bowl games when VY was in elementary school. Amazing stuff in Nashville. Let's take a brief look at the history of Collins.
