Bizarre Superbowl Narrative

Lets just assume things work out.. and the Titans play the Giants in the Superbowl... If so.. it will be eerily similar...

The story starts in Superbowl V... when Craig Morton lead the upstart Dallas Cowboys to the Superbowl... only to lose a war with Johnny Unitas and Colts.

Fast forward to 1978... when Craig Morton becomes the first QB to take two different franchises to the Superbowl... and... interestingly enough... he's facing his old team.. the Cowboys. Of course now the Cowboys feature rockstar QB Roger Staubach.

Now... Kerry Collins has the opportunity to be only the second QB to take two different franchises to the Superbowl... and if he does so... there's a very good chance he'll do it against his old team.. the Giants... and their rockstar QB... Eli Manning...exactly 30 years after Morton did it.

The one glaring difference?

Collins will win.
