Moss and McNair - Injured Again.

Steve McNair, the oft-injured Tennessee Titans quarterback, went down again with a recurrence of the bruised chest that kept him in the hospital for two nights last month.

McNair was hurt on the first play of the second quarter of Tennessee's 20-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings and finished 2-for-5 for 2 yards. He walked slowly off the field with a grimace after lying on the turf for a few minutes.

He was hurt on an incomplete pass intended for Derrick Mason. McNair was brought down by the Vikings' rush and apparently hurt in the pile.

And McNair acknowledged he might have to take some more time off.

"This is not going to heal in one or two weeks if I continue to go out there and play," McNair said. "I don't want to sit, but if I have to that's fine. We'll have to discuss that when we get to the evaluation. If I can't go out there and perform I'm not going to play."

That was the situation facing the Vikings.

McNair's injury was somewhat neutralized by Minnesota's loss of Moss, who extended his consecutive games streak to 102, but was limited to two snaps and no catches because of an aggravation of a right hamstring injury.

"It was never un-aggravated," Vikings coach Mike Tice said.

That ended the All-Pro receiver's streak of 101 straight games with a reception, spanning his entire career. Moss, who left the locker room without commenting, also had his streak of 10 straight games with a touchdown catch stopped.

Moss didn't return to the field after halftime.
