Tuck everlasting? Giants pass rusher looks for more Super Bowl milestones
January 31st, 2012
afcbeast INDIANAPOLIS — Four years ago, Justin Tuck’s performance in Super Bowl XLII defined the New York Giants’ 17-14 win.

afcbeast Consistency a reliability or uniformity of successive results or events. Consistency a word the Jets should study up on.

Experts agree: Flacco not the only problem with Ravens’ passing game
January 21st, 2012
afcbeast As it has been for Steve Young, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, and any number of quarterbacks before him, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco now finds himself in the unenviable position of having to defend his abilities in “big-time” situations.
