Early in the 2nd Quarter Rosolio and I texted back and forth amazed that the Eagles hadn’t tried double-teaming Fitzgerald. I commented that at least Jerheme Urban was being shut out. Rosolio replied that before the game Andy Reid promised that he wouldn’t let Jereheme Urban beat them. It would be funny if there wasn’t at least a 98% chance that it was true.
The post game interview with Adrian Wilson almost had me in tears, and I don’t even care about the Cardinals. I was surprised when Wilson never screamed at the top of his lungs, KG-style, “ANYTHING IS POSSIBLLLLLLLLLLLLLLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Do you think Jon Gruden is on a jet to Philadelphia tomorrow morning? He’ll pass McNabb who will be on his way out.
Kurt Warner locked up the Hall-of-Fame with this game. Matt Leinart locked up a guest appearance on Bromance.
Brian Westbrook only touched the ball 2 more times this game than Brent Celek. I must have a fantasy football hangover (Westbrook was on my team) because this was really killing me the entire game.
Larry Fitzgerald is the Anton Chigurh of football. Only he doesn’t give you a coin flip. I could just hear Asante Samuel saying to him all game, “You don’t have to do this!”
Congrats to the Arizona Cardinals! Either the Ravens or the Steelers will play the part of the bully vs. the sentimental favorite Cardinals in the Super Bowl this year. It’s lining up to be a great matchup.
