I gotta agree with goombah on about the Super Bowl. Remember back in January during those 2 excruciating weeks on how ESPN and the media would NOT shut UP about whatever Terrell Owens would play or not. I mean he did play and actually had a decent-good game, unlike his former loudmouth teammate Freddie Mitchell(who like Owens later trashed McNabb for not having the heart late in the game).

Besides, the extra week would give the players more distraction while at the Super Bowl city. Ray Buchanon anyone?
