not as badly as he`ll miss belichik
Yeah I think we will initially, but will eventually adapt just like after Weis left. Belichick has just left the offense and a big chunk of game planning to him for the last two years, which says it all. I would expect he will be more involved on that side of the ball next year, whoever replaces McDaniels. There is also the chance that he could just leave the position open for a while like he did last time. Whoever comes in would have to adapt to the system he has in place anyway, which is why they like to promote from within. The Patriots' other offensive coaches are Ivan Fears (running backs), Pete Mangurian (tight ends), Bill O'Brien (receivers) and Dante Scarnecchia (offensive line/asst. head coach). O’Brien seems like a potential replacement that is already on the staff and has worked his way up, not sure which outsiders would be suitable.
I am more worried about the affect of the changes in the overall organisation with Seely, Capers and Pioli maybe joining McDaniels as well.
Baltimore: 7
Pittsburgh: 24
Philadelphia: 20
Arizona: 31

You betcha you are, but at least you still have Brady who is a great QB who doesnt need a great offensive coordinator at this point in his career.
Pioli officially with the Chiefs - that hurts more
BB had more control of player personnel than Pioli, that's why Pioli left, Herm edwards is gonna get a pink slip in next week guaranteed.
Picks for Sunday?
I'm going with an all Pennsylvania final. Iggles and Stillers.

Eagles and Steelers as well
although the Ravens have much more of a chance of going through than the Cards, watch the Cards blow another team out again, like last week

I took 36/1 on the Steelers pre-season. I`m in two minds whether or not to cover with the Ravens or wait and hope Pittsburgh win and then cover on their NFC opponents.
Good job sir, I picked them as well! Great minds.....
That was a sick play by the Cardinals, they are up 14-3 now, my feck what were the odds on them getting into the Super Bowl
I think Fitzgerald is enjoying his time in the limelight and national audiences!
He is like a man amongst boys out there. Has played very well throughout the Playoffs as a whole.
It looks like that hip is affecting Samuel's play to me. Not that he could cover him fully one on one anyway.

OMG Eagles miss the extra-point kick. Laces in.
How many games will be played between Cardinals and Eagles to decide who goes to the Superbowl?
Is it the best of two? And if they win won each, how do you then decide who goes through?

One game straight knockout system in the NFL playoffs.
So todays winner is in the Superbowl?
Yep. The other semifinal is coming up after this game.
What a turnaround by the Eagles.
Yeah, I know, I`ve picked Baltimore as my "favourite" team this year.
Eagles doing a good comeback here.

What a turn around
They are conference title games, AFC and NFC
Yeah I know but I always say semifinal since I'm European
Yeah, semifinals make sense IMO.
Are you really in Azerbaijan Alex?
No it is throw off people because of the distinct anti American sentiment of people on here by people like Sultan and Sam#50.
This has been a great drive by Arizona, first and goal from teh 9 with 3:45 left

What the Eagles defence did right there, is that what you call a blitz?
Edit: No it doesn't look like they did a blitz seeing the replay.

Cardinals take over on downs, they have it in their hands they just need to not fumble the ball
Awww, McNabb isn't smiling and dancing now. Bummer. This is the closest Philly will come to the SB... oh this trophy alludes the franchise again.
feck the Eagles!!! Hahahahahahaha
What a stupid question asked by Pam... "You could have left in free agency in 2004. What made you think in 2004 this team would someday reach this game?" "Pride," the player responded. WTF ever. He resigned because he got a good offer, lol. Pride.

Another NFC championship game gone for Reid and McNabb then, one for five. The Cardinals in the Superbowl, who would have thought it before the season, or even a few weeks ago after they were crushed by the Pats. If Warner wins it or even if he does not, he has a decent chance of getting fitted for the jacket one day.
It's debatable whether he gets in the Hall of Fame, but winning a second SB would be an impressive feat, not many QBs have two Super Bowl wins
I don't see Phil Simms in the Hall yet... even though he technically didn't win the second one as a starter (fecking Hostetler did, lol).
But two would bring up debates and some would say yes. I personally felt his run in St Louis was bloated and short. Faulk made the difference in 1999 but the Warner "story" got him the awards. He's a good QB no doubt.

Yeah, if I had a vote I would say no, unless his run in Arizona continues for a few more great years, but I dont know if that will happen
Minor point, but they reach the Super Bowl in the Terrell Owens year, but lost. Remember, McNabb vomiting on the field and all that?
if he wins the SB, wouldnt he be the first quarter back ever to win it with two different teams?
that's fecking impressive
I can't see KW getting into the hall. Good QB for sure, great maybe, HOF nah. Is that true about the only QB to win with 2 teams? Seems like there would be another but I can't think of any.
i think that no quarter back won the superbowl with two different teams
Starting QBs I think but there might have been a handful of backups win on different clubs. True free agency began in 1993. And most SB winning QBs stay with one team, at least as long as they're good. Warner started getting banged up and Bulger was playing well (to be honest, Martz and company ran a system in StL that just about any decent QB would put up numbers). And they gave Bulger a huge contract and let Warner go to save cap room. The best thing that ever happened for Warner was Trent Green getting his knee fecked up in the 1999 pre-season. Because Green was a very efficient QB and I think they'd still have won the SB with a healthy Green. Who knows where Warner's career takes him if he's riding the bench in 1999.
