In his post-Super Bowl commentary Chris Mortensen writes,
Dilfer was also on the mark in his post-game interviews when he basically said that those who follow the NFL get too caught up in the “fantasy football” syndrome. It’s about winning. Dilfer is a Super Bowl winning QB, and he need not apologize to anyone.
Huh? What did Mortensen expect to hear from a quarterback whose numbers are so bad that even after winning the Super Bowl it is unlikely Dilfer will be back starting for the Ravens next year. I’d hate fantasy football too if I were being paid a lot of money to be as inaccurate a passer as Dilfer was in the first half of Super Bowl XXXV.
The Ravens do have some good receivers, and if the defense doesn’t let up it would be amazing to watch what the Ravens might do next season if they ditch Dilfer for Brad Johnson or some other free agent.
On the other hand, if by some miracle Dilfer does end up back starting for the Ravens he need not worry too much about fantasy football fans — he’s not exactly going to be at the top of everyone’s draft list for next season.
