After watching the Colts defense dissect the Bears offense last night in the Super Bowl, it became clear that no NFC team deserves to be on the same field as an AFC playoff team. Well, a KC-Chicago game might have been good, and a Jets matchup may have been closer, but even those two teams would have beaten the second best (or best if you're a Ravens hater -- which I am) defense in the league and held their own against the pitiful offensive "attack" of the Chicago Bears. Rex Grossman's moon-balls may have worked in the NFC, but when you leave a ball hanging in the air for twenty minutes, even Nick Harper is bound to get to it. And he had an ankle injury people! "Please!" It was written all over Rex Grossman's face. "Somebody, please! Just tell me what to do!"
I could go on and on about the AFC's dominance over the NFC (Cincinnati, I hope you're watching. If you get in the Super Bowl, YOU WILL WIN), but I'd rather end my rant with two names: Joseph Addai and Dominic Rhodes. One's a rookie; the other, a perma-backup. Together, they made the ferocious Bears defense look like a bunch of confused children. Kudos to Peyton Manning for riding Addai down the field through runs and short passes instead of the long bomb, but extra kudos to Addai and Rhodes for a) catching the ball when it's thrown to you, and b) not dropping the ball. I've always wanted a Colts jersey, but didn't want to go with the standard Manning or Harrison garb. I think I'll add an Addai or Sanders jersey this time...
