Saints Movin’ On Up?

The N.O. Saints are rumored to be in negotiations with the Rams for the 2nd overall pick, offering OT Jamal Brown as part of the package. Of course, N.O. is high on Glenn Dorsey, and would be assured of getting him at that spot now that Miami has secured a deal with OT Jake Long.

Steve McNair Retires

QB Steve McNair decided to call it a career today. Though he never won a Super Bowl, McNair was a champion. The moment that defined McNair for me was the AFC championship game that the Titans lost to the Raiders. Questionable with back injuries, McNair played with pain, and he was my fantasy football QB for the week.

McNair scored on a short TD run early in the game, and as he dove for the endzone, two Raiders converged on him simultaneously and one of them laid his shoulder right between McNairs shoulder blades as he hit the ground. It was one of those hits you could hear on TV. I was convinced that McNair wouldn’t get up.

He went on to score 3 TD’s (2 running and 1 passing, I believe) and threw for over 300 yds. He played much of the latter part of his career with injuries.

A real trooper and a throwback to another era.
