I’ve been thinking about Ron Jaworski lately.
It’s no man crush. And I don’t get a snicker out of seeing a guy with the nickname “Jaws” having the cheeks of a chipmunk. I think Ron Jaworski might be a prophet. You see, about two-thirds of the way into the 2007 NFL season, all the NFL talking heads were bouncing only one question between them: Who could beat the New England Patriots?
Ron Jaworski had one answer: The Green Bay Packers.
His reasoning is a little hazy now, but it had something to do Favre’s ability to dink and dunk, his bursting stable of wide receiver talent and New England’s inability to adequately defend the short pass game. If memory serves, the Giants and Jaguars both had recent success with this kind of offense against the Patriots, and both don’t have nearly the wideout talent nor the quarterback that Green Bay has. And something about Randy Moss not liking getting chucked at the line of scrimmage and that being how Charles Woodson and Al Harris make their living, sitting you down 1.7 yards into your route.
At the time I was thinking “That’s nice. If the Patriots and Packers meet in the Superbowl, the Packers have the best chance at beating this unbelievable team. And, if I’m ever faced with the prospect of a menage a trois (the good kind), scoring some Viagra just before could make it a night for the record books.”
I was pretty sure both of those pieces of information were worthless.
Here’s to hoping for two wrongs being right.
