Clark Judge puts Jack Del Rio and Gary Kubiak on the back burner on his list of coaches on the hot seat.

Houston Texans

• I picked Brian Cushing as the AFC South's potential breakout player.
• There aren't many starting jobs up for grabs, writes Alan Burge.
• The Battle Red Blog looks into Adam Schein's contention that the Texans have a better defensive line than the Titans. Two words that have not been factored into this enough: Travis Johnson.

Indianapolis Colts

• "Despite the fact the Colts are sold out for the 2009 season and have a waiting list of about 15,000 for season tickets, they still make an effort with summer community outreach programs," writes Phillip B. Wilson.
• Dominic Rhodes talked to Colin Cowherd and covered some Colts topics.
• John Oehser doesn't think Jeff Saturday wound up needing knee surgery.
• A breakdown of cornerback Tim Jennings, from Oehser.

Jacksonville Jaguars

• New safety Gerald Alexander is anxious for his first hit, writes Vic Ketchman of jaguars.com.

Tennessee Titans

• Robert Gaddy, Steve McNair's close friend, said the former quarterback had no plans to divorce and that he and his wife were looking for a new house, reports Jim Wyatt.
• Analysts hope the circumstances of McNair's death won't taint his legacy, says Wyatt.
• Parents and coaches are using McNair as a teaching tool, writes Jessica Bliss.
• Ken Whitehouse and Sam Claycombe look at some of the people tied to the McNair case and say police have determined that some eerie song lyrics posted on the Internet went up after the deaths, not before them.
• Kate Howard reports an explanation of the song lyrics by Sahel Kazemi's ex-boyfriend.
• How has McNair's death affected McNair's Mississippi hometown? Gary Estwick has the story.
• Titans Radio has broken its "Memories of McNair" broadcast into seven segments you can hear from here.
• Jamison Hensley did a poll and found McNair unlikely to make the Hall of Fame. I agree with that. He was good, sometimes great, but not great often enough to be considered one of the best of all time. He trails too many of his contemporaries.
• Jason Whitlock says parenting is the biggest issue in what happened with McNair.
• More on McNair: Lance Zierlein and Mike Tanier.
