Brett Favre is Overrated: a Minifesto

Brett Favre is a warrior. He's a Super Bowl champion, an MVP and a Pro Bowler. He's gritty. He's tough. He's a gunslinger. He wears Wranglers.

The Day the NFC overtook the AFC

The complete domination of the Bill Belichick-coached Patriots by the New Orleans Saints on Monday night was a signifying moment in the NFL.

The Pats had no answer for the Saints' offense. The precision passes from Drew Brees, the size of the Saints receivers, the punch of the ground game -- the Patriots young defense weren't prepared or physically able to stop New Orleans. On defense, the brand new starting corners -- especially Mike McKenzie -- stepped up like Channing Tatum and held Randy Moss and Wes Welker to under 100 yards combined. This was a statement by the class of the NFC to the league and to anyone paying attention at home: the AFC is no longer the stronger conference.  Pictorial evidence!
