Taylor: Changing of the guard in AFC East

Favre is right at home in the ancient NFC North
Seven weeks and counting until the 2010 NFL season kicks off. This week, we’re going to take a look at the frigid NFC North. The mighty ‘Frostbite Division’.
There are two guarantees I can make about this season’s NFC North. - Recalling McNair’s legend EDITOR’S NOTE: This column, written by sports editor Rocky Higginbotham, was first published in The Meridian Star on Nov. 21, 1994 after Higginbotham attended the Nov. 19, 1994 football game between Alcorn State and Jackson State. Higginbotham was one of more than 200 media representatives on hand nearly 15 years ago to document Steve McNair’s chase for the Heisman trophy. McNair, who was found dead in Nashville on Saturday, went on to finish third in the Heisman race before a storied 13-year professional career which included a Most Valuable Player trophy.
