First of all let me say that football is almost over so all of you who have spouses that are sick of watching football on the weekends tell them that it is almost over. I think that having the Pro bowl a week before the super bowl is stupid because all of the players involved are not going to play. Now I know that even if the Pro Bowl was played at the right time some of the players still don't play so why does that matter. It matters because the right players should be playing in the game not the after thoughts. Don't you want to see Peyton Manning play? If he loses this weekend, He is going hunting not to Miami. Same with Brett Favre. So I don't understand the logic behind this decision.
What ever happened to competition? The Cardinals and Cowboys were as good as the Vikings and Saints. They got "Molly whopped". I know I should not talk smack about teams that went farther than my team but those were some weird games. After Arizona scored on the first play of the game I was buckling up to watch a wild shoot out. When Urban got stripped after making the catch and run, I still thought that the Cards had a chance. They got taken behind the woodshed after that and I think Kurt Warner should retire. He is a first ballot Hall of Famer and has nothing left to prove. If Matt Leinart has not learned anything from Warner, he should quit. Arizona has a great nucleus of young talent. They just need to get better on defense. I can understand why Warner wants to come back. The division they play in stinks so he will always be in the playoffs, plus he has sick weapons to throw to and hand the ball off too. One more Super Bowl run and then ride off into the sunset with your 7 kids and beautiful wife and enjoy life.
Dallas should not fire Wade Phillips. He has Dallas poised for a championship run. I completely agree with Eric Allen. They are going to be a beast next year if they stay healthy. Plus the stadium that Cowboys play in is hosting the Superbowl next year. Jerry Jones has a lot of wet dreams and that is the ultimate wet dream for him. They need to get a receiver to compliment Austin and then they will be unstoppable. The secondary needs a little work too but that can be addressed in the draft. Dallas will be in the Super Bowl next year or Wade Phillips will be fired.
The story of the weekend is the Jets. I told you on Friday that the Chargers had the most pressure on them. They have major problems to figure out about the teams future. They have all of the pieces to win a but for some reason they just cannot win the big one. The Jets did what they do. K.I.S.S. isn't the prettiest thing to watch but when it works you sit back and say did that just happen? The Jets were awful in the first quarter and shut the Chargers down when it mattered most. i hope that people are not thinking that the Jets played great on defense because lets face it Rivers still threw for a boat load of yards and the field goal kicker missed 2 makeable kicks that Matt Stover or Adam Vinitieri will not miss. Antonio Gates dropped passes all over the place and we know that Dallas Clark is not going to do that. The Jets better knock Peyton Manning on his ass every chance they get or they will get shredded. I hope they don't. I want Minnesota and the Jets to play for the title. Farve played for the Jets last year and I think the football gods would be wise to make this happen. Plus Minnesota has never won a title despite playing in four super bowls. If the Colts play the Saints, that would be cool too because of the connections between the Manning family and both teams. Obviously Archie would root for his son but I am sure he would be happy if the Saints won too. So would Peyton. The people of New Orleans haven't rejoiced in along time and Mardi Gras is going on at that time so that place will be rocking if it happened. You know who is hating life right now is Eric Mangini. He had Favre and the Jets last year and now he is coaching the woeful Browns.
