Super Bowl XLIII: Better Than Super
Super Bowl XLIII: Steelers 27 Cardinals 23

The Super Bowl keeps topping itself. Last year, it was Eli Manning escaping a horde of rushers to connect with David Tyree on that unreal "helmet catch." Last Sunday in Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa Bay, it was Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger flinging a pass "I thought was going to be picked," as he described it, to Santonio Holmes, who, straining on his tiptoes, made only the latest "greatest Super Bowl catch ever" to give Pittsburgh a 27-23 victory over Arizona.

Super Bowl XLIII: Steelers 27 Cardinals 23

Santonio Holmes extended his arms, kept his feet on the ground and held on to Ben Roethlisberger's perfectly placed pass deep in the right corner of the end zone.

The amazing touchdown catch -- against three Cardinal defenders -- capped an 8-play 78 yard drive with 35 seconds remaining.

Thus, giving the Pittsburgh Steelers a 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII.

Super Bowl XLIII - Steelers vs. Cardinals

Arizona Cardinals Relaxed Atmosphere in Final Prep
Super Bowl XLIII: Cardinals Practice Report - January 31, 2009

The Cardinals kept the atmosphere relaxed as the team completed their final preparations for Super Bowl XLIII with a walk-through practice.

Steelers Set for Super Bowl Showdown
Super Bowl XLIII: Steelers Practice Report - January 31, 2009

Summing up the week, Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin said: "It's been good. Ultimately, though, it will be judged by how we perform tomorrow. We understand that."

Loose & Relaxed Steelers Ready to Play
Super Bowl XLIII: Steelers Practice Report - January 30. 2009

The Pittsburgh Steelers, appearing loose and relaxed for the third straight day, hustled through their final major practice prior to Super Bowl XLIII Friday, and coach Mike Tomlin said his team was completely healthy heading into Super Bowl XLIII against the Arizona Cardinals.

Cards QB Kurt Warner Looks Sharp in Final Major Practice
Super Bowl XLIII: Cardinals Practice Report - January 30. 2009

Starting quarterback Kurt Warner may have had his best throwing day of the week on Friday, misfiring on only three passes during the two hour and 20-minute practice. "Kurt looked like he's been looking," Whisenhunt said. "He was consistent and made some good throws. He looked sharp."

Cardinals Anquan Boldin Looking Good

Wide receiver Anquan Boldin participated fully and showed no effects of a hamstring injury that caused him to miss the Divisional Playoff game against Carolina. "He looked good today and he also looked good late last week," Whisenhunt said of Boldin. "We took a little easier on him early last week just to be safe."

Steelers Hines Ward Not 100% But Ready to Go

Other than Ward, the 32-year old inspirational lead of the Pittsburgh offense, the Steelers have no health issues on either side of the ball, Tomlin said. But the coach was dismissive when asked if he was concerned about Ward's status for Sunday's game. "Hines is playing," Tomlin said. "I'm not worried about him."

Cards Focus on Steelers' Big 3-D

For the two major practices in Tampa, the Cardinals have had scout defensive players wear the jersey numbers for Pittsburgh's Big 3-D, linebackers James Harrison and LaMarr Woodley and safety Troy Polamalu. "It helps our receivers and Kurt (Warner) in order to identify defenses," Whisenhunt said of the common practice method.

Big Ben's Health Often Subject of Inaccurate Reports

Big Ben's Health Often Subject of Inaccurate Reports Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin denied a Profootballtalk.com report that Roethlisberger has undergone X-rays on his back this week. "Not that I heard," said Tomlin, who then asked Steelers spokesman Dave Lockett if he knew of any X-rays on Roethlisberger. Lockett said no. Then Tomlin said: "Ben's health is often the subject of inaccurate reports. He's fine."

Not only is Kurt Warner getting better with age, but he's raising his level of play as the stakes get higher. No better example than this year's playoff run.

The NFL is down to its final four as the Eagles take on the Cardinals for the NFC Championship and the Ravens take on the Steelers for the AFC Championship.

Before the NFL Playoffs started, many may have predicted the Steelers as an AFC Championship participant, some may have specifically picked one of three other teams, but few, if any, would have chosen this ensemble of teams to be one step away from Super Bowl XLIII.

Titans & Giants Lose at Home in NFL Divisional Playoff Round

This weekend's losses by the Titans (Ravens 13-10) and Giants (Eagles 23-11) marks the first time that both conference top-seeds have been eliminated in the divisional round playoffs. The elimination of the Titans and Giants also marks the third time that no top conference seed will advance to the Super Bowl (1992 & 1997).

2008 NFL Playoffs "Rematch" Weekend
NFL Playoffs Divisional Weekend: Round 2 In More Ways Than One

All four games this weekend -- Ravens vs Titans, Cards vs Panthers, Eagles vs Giants, Chargers vs. Steelers -- are rematches from the regular season. Add up the point differential in the 2008 regular-season meetings of the teams playing in this weekend's four NFL Divisional Playoffs, and you get the grand total of -- 19 points.

And that's not in four games, but five, because one of this week's matchups is a division rematch.

Think the games in "Rematch Weekend" this Saturday and Sunday could be close? Could be!

Baltimore Ravens (12-5) at Tennessee Titans (13-3)
Saturday, CBS, 4:30 PM ET

Both teams excel in the turnover battle, finishing second (Tennessee, plus-14) and third (Baltimore, plus-13) this season in NFL turnover differential. They are also quite similar on defense. Linemen who call for double-teams; quick linebackers who can rush or drop back into coverage; and ball-hawking secondaries. But it certainly won't be all defense.

Arizona Cardinals (10-7) at Carolina Panthers (12-4)
Saturday, FOX, 8:15 PM ET

Given the choice, the Cardinals would rather throw the ball. However, in last week's 30-24 Wild Card win over the Falcons it was their defense and running attack which advanced the Cardinals to the next round. The Panthers love running the ball, but Panthers QB Jake Delhomme was 20-of-28 for 248 yards, 2 TDs with 0 INTs for a 122.3 QB rating against the Cards in the regular season. How will it all play out, especially in Carolina where the Panthers are undefeated this season?

Philadelphia Eagles (10-6-1) at New York Giants (12-4)
Sunday, FOX, 1:00 PM ET

The top-seeded New York Giants, champions of the NFC East, face their division rival, the Philadelphia Eagles, for the third time this season with a berth in the NFC Championship Game on the line. The Giants are 7-1 at home this season while the Eagles are 4-4-1 on the road, including their 26-14 Wild Card victory over the Vikings last week in Minnesota. The Giants lost to the Vikings in Minnesota 20-19 in their regular season finale. The Eagles have won 5 of their last 6 while the Giants have lost 3 of their last 4 after an 11-1 start.

San Diego Chargers (9-8) at Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4)
Sunday, CBS, 4:45 PM ET

When San Diego travels to Pittsburgh on Sunday it will mark the first time in the NFL playoffs since Denver (top offense) faced Baltimore (top defense) in the 2000 AFC Wild Card round that a conference's top scoring offense goes against the top scoring defense.

Pass-Happy Cards Win with Defense & Running Game
Arizona Cardinals 30, Atlanta Falcons 24

The Cardinals defense was sensational, limiting Michael Turner to 42 rushing yards, harassing Matt Ryan and scoring points on its own with a TD and safety. The offense was also strong as Edgerrin James led a revitalized Cardinals ground game while Kurt Warner and Larry Fitzgerald made big plays in the passing game.

Ravens Defense Forces 5 Dolphins Turnovers
Baltmore Ravens 27, Miami Dolphins 9

The Baltimore Ravens had the Miami Dolphins and Chad Pennington under pressure throughout the game as they forced four interceptions, including one returned 64 yards for a touchdown by Ed Reed.

Darren "Tank" Sproles Rumbles Over Colts
San Diego Chargers 23 Indianapolis Colts 17 (OT)

The Chargers rallied from a 17-14 fourth quarter deficit behind an outstanding defensive effort, punter Mike Scifres and the all-purpose assault by Darren "Tank" Sproles to defeat the Indianapolis Colts, 23-17 in overtime. Sproles played the key role in the Chargers AFC Wild Card win over Indianapolis, recording 328 all-purpose yards, third-most in an NFL Playoff game.

On Wild Card Weekend Everybody Starts on Equal Ground

In one of the most unpredictable and story-filled NFL regular seasons in memory, the road to Tampa Bay, Florida and Super Bowl XLIII on February 1 begins this Saturday and Sunday with the NFL 2008 Playoffs and Wild Card Weekend. How each of the NFL Playoff teams got here doesn't matter. Nor does it matter who got in first or who got in last. All that matters is that they're here and ready to go.

Falcons Visit Cardinals in Wild Card Weekend's 1st Matchup
Atlanta Falcons (11-5) at Arizona Cardinals (9-7) NFL Playoffs Wild Card Weekend

The Arizona Cardinals, which scored a franchise record 424 points, boasts a high-flying attack led by QB Kurt Warner and wide receivers Larry Fitzgerald, Anquan Boldin and Steve Breaston. The Atlanta Falcons are in the postseason for the first time since 2004. The Falcons are led by rookie QB Matt Ryan and RB Michael Turner. The Falcons ended the season winning five of their last six, and eight of their last 10.

Don't Be Misled by Colts & Bolts Regular Season Records
Indianapolis Colts (12-4) at San Diego Chargers (8-8) NFL Playoffs Wild Card Weekend

Returning to San Diego for the second time in seven weeks to face a familiar playoff foe, the Indianapolis Colts, 12-4, meet the San Diego Chargers, 8-8, on Saturday, January 3. The Colts and Chargers met on November 23 this season. Indianapolis earned a 23-20 last-play victory over San Diego.

Ravens Seek to Defeat Dolphins Again in Miami
Baltimore Ravens (11-5) at Miami Dolphins (11-5) NFL Playoffs Wild Card Weekend

The game is a rematch of a regular season game between these teams this year, when Baltimore registered a 27-13 win on October 19 at Dolphin Stadium. The Ravens head to Miami hoping to return with the same result.

Eagles and Vikings on a Mission
Philadelphia Eagles (9-6-1) at Minnesota Vikings (10-6) NFL Playoffs Wild Card Weekend

After weak starts this season, both teams finished strong to propel themselves into the NFL 2008 playoffs. They both started the season slowly. The Eagles were 2-3; the Vikings 1-3. But both finished the season with strong winning streaks as the Eagles won 4 of their last 5, while the Vikings won 5 of their last 6.

All or Nothing in Sunday Night's AFC West Battle

What a way to end the NFL 2008 Regular Season. It's an all or nothing proposition for the longtime AFC West rivals Broncos and Chargers. The winner captures the AFC West and prepares for the AFC playoffs.

Jets & Dolphins in an Ironic Twist of Fate

When the NFL 2008 season started, not many envisioned the significance of this game. For the Dolphins it's a straightforward proposition, win and the Dolphins are AFC East champs. For the Jets, they need to win plus rely on either the Bills or Jaguars to win.

Bills Could Spring December Upset Versus Patriots

The New England Patriots have defeated the Bills 10 times in a row. However, the Patriots come into Buffalo somewhat wary, after seeing what the Bills accomplished last week in Denver. The Bills overcame an early 13-point deficit and scored on five consecutive possessions to defeat the Broncos in Denver, 30-23.

Ravens Ready to Clinch AFC Playoff Spot

After a 2-3 start to the NFL 2008 season, the Ravens have gone 8-2 with first-year head coach John Harbaugh and rookie quarterback Joe Flacco to improve to 10-5. And, if they beat the Jaguars at home this Sunday, the Ravens advance to the AFC Playoffs.

Win-and-In Opportunity for Cowboys Against Eagles

The Cowboys control their own destiny, despite losing to the Ravens last week, 33-24. After a 10-3 loss in Washington, the Eagles need to beat the Cowboys and need help in the form of a loss by Tampa Bay, coupled with a loss by either the Bears or Vikings in the final Sunday of the 2008 NFL regular season.

Falcons Playing for NFC 2 Seed & Playoff Game at Home

The Falcons (10-5) host the Saint Louis Rams (2-13) this Sunday wit a chance to capture the NFC South division title and the NFC's number two seed. With that comes a first round bye and a home game the following week.

Panthers Find Themselves in Precarious Situation Against Saints

Even though the New Orleans Saints have been eliminated from playoff contention, their impact on the NFC South and NFC Playoffs this Sunday can be significant when the Saints host the Carolina Panthers. For the Panthers the NFC's second seed is on the line. As such, the Panthers find themselves in a vulnerable and precarious situation on the road.

NFL 2008: NFL Playoffs are Always Unpredictable

As unpredictable an NFL 2008 season, one thing may be certain in the NFL -- There always is change. A prime example is the NFL teams that make and don't make the playoffs each season.

Week 17: Final Week of the NFL's 2008 Regular Season & It's All on the Line

The journey to the NFL's playoffs has been challenging this 2008 season especially over the last two weeks which have been topsy-turvy. Upsets, disappointments and surprises leave a number of teams fighting for the remaining NFL's 5 playoff spots. For those teams, this is their last-chance. They either do it now in NFL's final week of the 2008 regular season or start planning for 2009. Plus, at stake for the Falcons and Panthers, the NFC's number two seed and a first-round playoff bye.

NFL Week 16: Giants & Titans Clinch Top Spots, Bears & Chargers Second Life, Jets in a Bind

The results in the NFL the past 2 weeks have been unpredictable to say the least. Heading into the final week of the 2008 regular season, the Chargers (7-8) are now in control of their own playoff destiny, the Bears (9-6) can win the NFC North with help from the Giants, while the Jets playoff chances look dim.

NFL 2008 Week 16: Bears' Prayers Get Answered with Second Life

Heading into week 16, the Bears chances as the cliche goes were slim and none. But the almost impossible and definitely improbable occurred on Sunday to keep their playoff chances alive as the Bears play the Packers at home on MNF.

Ravens vs. Cowboys: Identical Records & Playoff Aspirations

The game features a matchup of teams with identical 9-5 records fighting for a Wildcard playoff berth in their respective conferences.

The Ravens come off a deflating 13-9 loss to the Steelers while the Cowboys head into the game after a convincing 20-8 victory against the New York Giants.

Falcons are No Match for Vikings at Metrodome

The Vikings can clinch the NFC North this week, while the Falcons have a chance to earn a Wildcard spot this week. However, the Falcons are simply not built for the road this season proving that not all 9-5 records are equal.

NFC Leaders Battle It Out for Home Field Supremacy

The NFC's top playoff seed is at stake this Sunday night when the Carolina Panthers visit the New York Giants. The Giants and Panthers have identical 11-3 records, but appear to be going in different directions.

The Battle for the AFC King of the Hill

The top two seeds in the AFC meet this Sunday, as the AFC South Champion Tennessee Titans (12-2) host the AFC North Champion Pittsburgh Steelers (11-3). While both teams have clinched a first-round playoffs bye, this Sunday game will likely determine which team gains homefield advantage in the AFC.

4th Time Better Be the Charm for the Jets Out West

The Jets head to the west coast for the 4th time this season to face the Seahawks in Mike Holmgren's last home game as Seattle's head coach. With the Dolphins and Patriots also sporting 9-5 records, this week's matchup is significant. The Jets cannot afford to look ahead to the season finale against the Dolphins.

Eagles Aim for 4th in a Row at Redskins Expense

The Eagles look to win their fourth straight game as they travel to Washington to take on the Redskins. The Washington Redskins (7-7) downward spiral continued last week in Cincinnati as Washington suffered its third straight loss and defeats in five of their last six games.

NFL Week 16: Two Weeks Left in an Extraordinary NFL 2008 Regular Season

With 2 weeks left in the regular season NFL teams find themselves in must-win situations. For the NFC & AFC Top seeds, it's about home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. For the other teams still in the playoff hunt, it's a matter of survival and about punching their ticket for the playoffs. As such, the goal is simple: keep winning, control your own playoff destiny and hope not to have to rely on other teams losing.

NFL 2008 Playoffs & Playoff Scenarios

Heading into NFL 2008 Week 16, the AFC playoff scenario is down to 6 teams fighting for 4 spots. While in the NFC 8 teams are vying for 4 spots. A look at the playoff races and playoff scenarios.

There will be twists and turns in the remaining 3 weeks of the NFL 2008 regular season.

AFC North Division Rivals Set for Defensive Battle

NFL 2008 Week 15 presents one of the most heated rivalries in the NFL between two AFC North division foes as the Steelers travel to Baltimore to face the Ravens this Sunday. On paper, this AFC North match-up should be one intense defensive battle. Pittsburgh enters the contest ranked No. 1, while the Ravens are No. 2.

Real-Deal Panthers Set to Expose Broncos at Home

The AFC West-leading Broncos (8-5) face the NFC South-leading Panthers (10-3) in Week 15. Denver heads to Carolina sporting a 3-game road winning streak and winners of 4 of their last 5. The Panthers come off their most impressive victory of the season proving they are the real-deal this season.

No Place Like Home in the NFC South
Falcons host Buccaneers in Make-or-Break Game

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Atlanta Falcons look to rebound after both lost on the road last week to NFC South Division rivals. Both teams are in need of this win to maintain their standing in the NFC Wildcard race and perhaps the NFC South Divsion Title.

AFC East Leading Jets Aim to Rebound Against Bills

After defining moment victories on the road against the Patriots & Titans, the Jets have fallen to lesser opponents over the past two weeks. First losing to the Broncos at home (34-17) and then losing to the 49ers (24-14) in San Francisco, the Jets now find themselves in a dogfight for the AFC East title.

NFC Division Leading Vikings & Cardinals Clash in Desert

The Pressure is Already On with Big Division Matchups & Old Rivalries

In the National Football League, whether it is Week 4, like this week, or Week 14 of the NFL 2008 season, the pressure is always on.

Sure, you’d rather be undefeated – as six NFL teams are – or at least have a winning record as the last weekend of September looms.

But all those teams on the downside of the won-loss ledger should remind themselves of the 2007 San Diego Chargers.

The Chargers began last season at 1-3, won their final six games then took an 11-5 record into the playoffs, advancing all the way to the AFC Championship Game.

"It doesn’t matter whether you’re the favorite now or the least favorite," says quarterback TONY ROMO of the 3-0 Dallas Cowboys. "The reality of it is you’ve got to keep playing games. You’re not trying to be the favorite now, you’re trying to be the favorite at the end of the year."

That easily summarizes developments in the NFL so far this NFL 2008 Season that have already packed a season's worth of surprise and suspense into the league’s first two weeks. As autumn looms on Monday, who can imagine what's in store?

Look at things so far.

Three of the 2-0 teams (Buffalo, Carolina and Denver) won only seven games apiece last year. So things are looking up for them.

But, hold on. Just look at last year. The Giants started 0-2 and won the Super Bowl. The Chargers began 1-3 and reached the AFC Championship Game. It’s two weeks down – and a long way to go!

"It's a rival game every time we play in our division," says linebacker BRADIE JAMES of the Dallas Cowboys, who play NFC East foe Philadelphia on Monday night. "Everybody approaches it like it's a playoff game."

So after a Kickoff week that saw such thrills as a TD on a first pass (Atlanta rookie MATT RYAN on his first NFL attempt) and one on a last pass (by Carolina quarterback JAKE DELHOMME to win a game with no time left), here comes Week 2 of what promises to be another memorable NFL season.
