Young fell into another emotional hollow this summer after McNair’s death. "We still talk about it a lot," Scaife said, adding, "It probably opened his eyes that life is so short, you’ve got to seize every moment."

Huge, huge break for us here. Looks like we will see a Rose Bowl rematch between Leinart and Young!
(h/t Pinoy)
The numbers for the Arizona Cardinals look a lot like those for the Houston Texans. They have a devastating aerial attack and are decent to not very good running the football. The key on defense will be keeping the Cardinals from getting the big play [...]

In all honesty, this jerk should probably have his medical license yanked for putting the league before sound medical research. The league's response to this situation has been nearly criminal, and Casson is the point man most responsible.
