Yeah, so we missed out on the Super Bowl this year by...3 games...the point is we can't really get into the swing of the off-season until the dust has settled from the Super Bowl. I predict the Steelers will win, btw, simply because high-octane offenses like Arizona's rarely get revved up in the big game. I can't remember the last time a team was offensively proficient in the Super Bowl, but to be honest I haven't really been paying attention since my team has never been there in my time as a fan. In any event, I go by the creed that defenses win Championships. I would prefer that Arizona win for the good story and that Fitzgerald deserves it and I don't think he'll have another chance anytime soon. But in a low-scoring game like the Super Bowl tends to be, my money would have to be on the Steelers, who are the kings of the low-scoring wins.
In the meantime, here are the latest gossip, rumours and reports that are NOT about the Super Bowl:
- A piece on PFT about the SS's report yesterday that the Dolphins were working to re-sign Vernon Carey.
- Albert Haynesworth just wants some money.
- If you think nothing's going on at the Sun-Sentinel blog lately, feel lucky you're not a Baltimore Ravens fan/Baltimore Sun reader. Their last blog entry was almost two weeks ago and it was a call for help from the fans to come up with something to talk about!
- NFL Commissioner's press conference at 11:30am Eastern may include language the player's don't want to hear.
- The 2009 franchise tag prices are available now. The linebacker and offensive linemen tags are virtually identical so I think Baltimore will be tagging their Tackle.
- Former Miami Dolphin, Troy Vincent, is getting railroaded. Payback or Pre-emptive Strike?
