Super Thoughts
I never thought Carolina would get this far after going 1-15 two years ago. I don't think I would have predicted their championship game and division round victories. Not to take anything away from them, however, but they beat the Philadelphia Choking Eagles, the Formerly Great St. Louis Rams, and the formerly woeful Dallas Cowgirls to get to this point.
This game should be more of a test. Let's predict New England over Carolina in a defensive yawner 23-17.
Less Than Super Thoughts
I guess Terrell Owens has burned his bridges. He blames his quarterback and everyone else but himself. He made light of Jeff Garcia's drunk driving arrest and generally stuck his foot in his mouth. Even Joe Montana, a player who never criticized a teammate mentioned that the last time he saw Owens on the field, Owens dropped at least three passes.
I am reminded of another 49er who b****ed and complained about everything. Ricky Watters left as a free agent, and proceeded to have a less than distinguished end to his career, splitting time with Charlie Garner in Philly and ending up in Seattle. There is a difference, Watters always gave full effort when he was out on the field. Owens does not. I hope that Philly or Atlanta, wherever Owens ends up, win every game, because they will find Owens B.S. isn't worth putting up with for long.
As for the Raiders, they hired Norv Turner as head coach. Turner was a failure as head coach of the Redskins, so don't expect much more than that with the Raiders.
