I've mentioned this in a couple other threads, so excuse me if you've heard this one.....but, Fisher hinted at this in an interview 3 or 4 weeks ago when the McNair retirement talk first surfaced. McNair has had, I think, three straight brutal rehab off-seasons. The retirement decision could be pushed along quickly if he has to undergo another rough off-season. Fisher is of the mind that if McNair gets any more banged up than he already is, he could be facing just that and decide to hang it up. So, I think that Fisher, for weeks, has really had no intention, whatsoever, of playing McNair again in this losing campaign and risking further injury. Steve doesn't like that kind of talk because he's dying to get out there, especially when the team loses without him. But, I'm convinced it will be Volek from here on this season.
