Will there be an all New York Super Bowl?

New York Giants vs New York Jets in Super Bowl XLIII 12/1

NFC – The New York Giants return to the scene of their greatest triumph this decade – University of Phoenix Stadium, where they will play the Arizona Cardinals today. Ten months ago, the Giants won the Super Bowl with a shocking 17-14 triumph over New England in that building. “I think it’ll be neat going back,” Giants QB Eli Manning said. “But I think it will be a different feel this time just because we are going to be in Arizona’s stadium. We are going to be the away team. It should be a different crowd, a different feel. It’s a new season.” …

Two players who won’t be returning to Phoenix with the Giants are Pro Bowl ends Michael Strahan and Osi Umenyiora. Strahan retired after the Super Bowl and Umenyiora suffered a season-ending knee injury in training camp. Not that it matters. The Giants still have one of the NFL’s best pass rushes, ranking fourth in the league with 31 sacks. “It’s pretty amazing to lose those two guys and still have the kind of pass rush and cause the type of disruption those guys do,” Cardinals QB Kurt Warner said. “They’re all over the place. It’s a credit to the young guys who have come in and established themselves. It doesn’t look like a whole lot has changed.” …

When the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Giants two weekends ago, there were public rumblings that it was time for coach Andy Reid and quarterback Donovan McNabb to go. When the Eagles tied lowly Cincinnati last weekend, those rumblings became a public outcry. “I’ll be honest and say it’s kind of hard not to listen to it or hear it, especially here in Philadelphia,” said McNabb, who is 78-43-1 as starting quarterback of the Eagles. “But …

I don’t think either one of us pays attention to it, and it never affects what we try to do here. We’ve both been a part of this for 10 years. It hasn’t been roses, so to speak, throughout our 10 years here. So the way I’ve handled it is to have thick skin, stay focused on your goal, continue to work hard and make sure the guys here in this building understand that none of that negativity will affect what you do, your game plan and your work ethic.” …

Rod Marinelli won a Super Bowl ring as defensive line coach at Tampa Bay – success that earned him a shot as head coach of the Detroit Lions. The Bucs visit the Lions today, and Marinelli can’t wait to see them. Not just because he knows a lot of the players and coaches still in Tampa. The Bucs are one of the few teams Marinelli can beat. Marinelli is 10-31 with the Lions – and the wins include a 23-16 victory over the Bucs a year ago at Ford Field. The Lions are 0-10 this season. “Because of free agency, every week you’re probably facing someone that was either a team or a coach of yours,” Bucs linebacker Derrick Brooks said. “So it will be fun – and no different than every other week. You just go out there and do your best to make sure that you prepare yourself to win.”

The Jets aren’t the only AFC East team facing a stiff challenge. Miami and New England both take 6-4 records into their rematch today. The Dolphins shocked the Patriots, 38-13, in New England in the third weekend of the season, unveiling the “Wildcat” formation with direct snaps to halfback Ronnie Brown. He rushed for 113 yards and four touchdowns that day and threw for a fifth score on an option pass. It’s safe to assume the Patriots will be better prepared for the Wildcat formation this time around. “Probably the toughest thing is tackling the guy who’s got the ball,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. “They all run well. They break tackles, they make people miss in the open field, they’re fast, they’re quick and they have good balance. All three of those guys [Brown, Ricky Williams and Patrick Cobbs ] are tough to tackle.” …

It’s also a crucial week for the fourth team in the AFC East. The Buffalo Bills once sat atop the division with a 5-1 record. Thanks to a four-game losing streak, the Bills now reside at the bottom of the pack at 5-5. Buffalo has a chance to get back on the winning track today against the 1-9 Kansas City Chiefs. The Bills need to start winning soon. They are running out of time on the season. “We deserve to be where we are because we haven’t played well enough to win in the recent past,” Bills coach Dick Jauron said. “But we also deserve to be where we are because we definitely played well enough to win early. Without those early wins, we wouldn’t be sitting here at 5-5, thinking about the next game and playing for an opportunity.” …

The 6-4 Denver Broncos are rolling with a two-game road winning streak and a two-game lead over San Diego in the AFC West. But Denver has suffered two home losses already, which is out of character for the Broncos. Denver is home today against the 2-8 Raiders. This one is money in the bank for the Broncos. Since the Raiders fired him as their head coach in 1989, Mike Shanahan has posted a 20-6 record against Oakland as coach of the Broncos.
