Over the years, there have been 43 Super Bowls. Some of them have been blowouts, and some of them have been nail-biters. In those nail-biters, there is usually that one play that you can point to and say, “that was the game-changer!” With that being said, I thought it would be interesting to go through some of the top game-changing plays in Super Bowl history. Here are my top 5: More »

Unlike franchise quarterbacks such as Joe Montana and more recently Brett Favre, it would be difficult to picture Indianapolis Colts elite signal caller Peyton Manning ever putting on a different colored jersey. According to many sources around the Super Bowl, the potential of that ever taking place is to be put out of the realm of possibility after the season concludes as the two sides will sit down and negotiate an extension for Manning’s contract.

After what can only be described as an eventful rookie season, New York Jets signal caller Mark Sanchez has made the decision to undergo some offseason surgery on his left knee to repair an injury that occurred during his time with the USC Trojans. It was determined that the Sanchise would not need any procedures on his right knee in which he suffered a PCL sprain early in this past season. That knee was made famous by the Rex Ryan outburst about his quarterback taking sliding lessons from New York Yankees star Derek Jeter in order to avoid such issues in the future. More »

The NFL has been trying for years to sell the importance of an exhibition all-star game to its players from a marketing standpoint, yet now that the AFC quarterback roster consists of Matt Schaub of the Houston Texans, David Garrard of the Jacksonville Jaguars, and Vince Young of the Tennessee Titans, it doesn’t appear they are buying in; at all. With the withdrawals of both Philip Rivers of the San Diego Chargers and Tom Brady from the New England Patriots shortly after their respective teams were eliminated from the postseason and Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Colts having an obvious schedule confliction, the Pro Bowl has become more of a 2nd team event.

I admit, using the word HATE is a little strong. I just think the way the NFL does the Pro Bowl is wrong. This year, as we know, the Pro Bowl is being held the weekend before the Super Bowl. Great for ratings, but bad for players. No players from either of the Super Bowl teams will participate, so no Manning, Brees, Wayne, Brackett, you get the idea (sorry to pick Colts and Saints players, but those are my picks so I have to stick to them). Therefore you have to pick alternates, then you have the babies like Tom Brady and Randy Moss who are too injured to play. Too injured? You just played in the playoffs and all 16 games, are you really too injured or are you sore losers who just don’t feel like playing? More alternates. Now we have Matt Schaub, who had a great year, but didn’t get picked for the Pro Bowl. Because of alternates and players not playing, he is considered a Pro Bowl player, even though he didn’t get voted there. The whole system seems wrong. More »

So the Patriots and Ravens will meet again for another match up and this time it’s in the playoffs. These two teams have had their share of controversial games and have established quite a rivalry heading into Sunday’s game. The Ravens have on a number of occasions been one or two plays short of beating the Patriots over the past 2 years. I believe this game will be another tough hard fought match up and the Ravens have just as much if not a better shot of beating a Patriots team that is no longer who they used to be. More »

It was announced on Wednesday that Tom Brady has been named the recipient of the NFL’s Comeback Player of the Year award. Of course the New England Patriots signal caller suffered that horrific knee injury in the first quarter of a week 1 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs one year ago and had to undergo major reconstructive surgery to repair the ligament damage in the offseason. As if that wasn’t enough, Brady suffered through well documented complications with the injury as there was an infection in the area of the surgery that could have potentially compromised the reconstruction entirely.

Don’t get me wrong, Peyton Manning is one of the greatest Quarterbacks to ever play the game, and certainly the best in the this decade alongside Tom Brady. The reason why I don’t think Manning is the overall greatest player in the decade is because Tom Brady put up nearly identical numbers, and won more Super Bowls. Basically, Manning and Brady cancel each other out, and leave us with the Decade’s greatest player, LaDainian Tomlinson. More »
