i got to LOVE this quote from Isaac Bruce--talk about a team getting bloated heads--from NYT <<The two teams meet again in today's National Football Conference title game, and this time it is not just a regular-season contest on the line, but a trip to the Super Bowl. Despite the close, hard-fought game played between these two teams in September, many think the No. 1-ranked St. Louis offense, the first team in league history to score more than 500 points in three straight seasons, will steamroller the Eagles.
"We are clicking and pretty much on all cylinders," Rams wide receiver Isaac Bruce said. "It's kind of hard to stop. I mean, you have to sometimes just step back in amazement and just look at the things that are happening."
They are confident, yes, but to win, St. Louis must deal with one of the more aggressive, unpredictable and confident defenses of the past several years.>> end quote from todays NYT. |
