Extending a run of negative events for Notre Dame, quarterback Everett Golson recently was suspended for an academic issue. Set to emerge as a star, Golson instead is gone for the season.

Rewind the film one year. Only a few people were thinking Russell Wilson, as a rookie quarterback, could lead the Seattle Seahawks to the playoffs.
This smelled like another hoax. These days, not all sports stories are to be believed, and this one painted Joe Flacco as a Super Bowl quarterback.
Feeling sorry for Tom Brady would be foolish. The NFL’s model quarterback has a supermodel wife on his left arm and a right arm that has produced three Super Bowl wins.
Apparently, Bill Belichick is running lower on brain power and Tom Brady’s man card is expiring. A high percentage of the betting public no longer respects the New England Patriots’ greatness.
One of the most memorable quotes of the NFL season came from New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin. It was not something he said during a news conference, rather a sarcastic line he shouted during a raucous locker-room celebration.
With the stage set for heroes to emerge, Eli Manning came the closest to resembling one. Manning again proved he’s an elite quarterback by guiding the New York Giants to another Super Bowl.
Attending the Super Bowl is overrated. I would much rather watch the game in a Las Vegas sports book, and it just so happens that Mayor Oscar Goodman agrees. That’s no surprise, obviously, because Goodman is this playground’s top pitchman.
At polling places around Las Vegas — the sports books, in other words — some influential bettors are voting for Aaron Rodgers as the quarterback candidate most likely to win the Super Bowl.
A mysterious knee injury and an allegedly weak heart have left Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler tagged as a quitter. His reputation was not the best to begin with, but there’s nothing worse than this.
