New England Patriots win Super Bowl in 2009

NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.

Jessica Simpson shocked that the Cowboys are only picked as fourth best to win the Super Bowl. New England is picked First.

The early choice is not the New York Giants to win the Super Bowl.

No, first place looks like New England. The Patriots still have Randy Moss and Tom Brady with “Prove me guilty” Bill Belichick at coach.

The early second choice is not the New York Giants.

The New York Giants have Eli Manning, but he is still not looked upon as Peyton Manning. Sorry little brother, big brother is still the leader. Yes, the Indianapolis Colts are the early leaders for second place to win it all.

(Yeah, yeah, the Colts can’t finish second if the Patriots win the Super Bowl, because they are in the same conference. We are only trying to determine who has the best chance of winning it all.)

Now how about the Giants at number 3? That sounds pretty good. Of course, that means they have to beat out the Dallas Cowboys and that will be no easy task. The Cowboys still have Tony Romo, Terrell Owens, and Jessica Simpson.

When I spoke to Cowboys coach Wade Phillips a few weeks ago, he pointed out that the Cowboys outgained the Giants and ran the ball for more yards, yet lost.

“We won almost everything except for the score,” Phillips said. “You have games like that. The stats went our way, but they made the plays and won the game. We didn’t play bad. We played a good game. We just didn’t make the plays we had been making all season.”

Phillips, by the way, was speaking to me at Tom Coughlin’s charity golf tournament in Jacksonville, with Coughlin a short chip away.

No respect, none at all.

Ahh, the NFL, the what have you done for me lately National Football League.

The Giants will have to go out there and earn their respect all over again.

This time it may be tougher, because we can see them coming!
