Does any other Super Bowl
site make it as simple for
a player to find himself
embroiled in a pre-game
debauchery — leading to an
in-game distraction — quite
like the Big Easy?

The former
No. 1 overall
draft pick
and starting
quarterback
for the
49ers will
be watching
the Super
Bowl from
the sideline,
having lost
his job to
dual-threat
dynamo Colin
Kaepernick.
THE BLUEPRINT
With the NFL having a
reputation as a “copycat
league,” the outcome of
this game could go a long
way toward determining
how teams build going
forward. Will big-armed
Joe Flacco be the model
for teams, or will Colin
Kaepernick’s read
option find its way into a
playbook near you?
LAST CHANCE
FOR RANDY?
“I do think I’m the
greatest receiver to
ever do it,” 35-yearold Randy Moss said
with his characteristic
modesty at Super
Bowl Media Day. The
one thing missing
from his impressive
statistical resume is a
Super Bowl win.
