but these are all matchups with storylines the media would run with for weeks.
I don't quite get these matchups.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers v. Indianapolis Colts: Dungy against Tampa? Dungy's been gone from Tampa so long, who cares. Other than Peyton Manning being there I don't see anything else. And Manning already went through his long wait and finally got one, so who cares.
Dallas Cowboys v. San Diego Chargers: Norv Turner vs. Dallas? Yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn. They'd run with T.O. stories, but they'd do that no matter what AFC team is involved. Fortunately, neither of these teams are getting in.
Arizona Cardinals v. Pittsburgh Steelers: Ken Whisenhunt vs. Pittsburgh? Double, triple yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
I don't think the media could run with storylines from these matchups because there's nothing of interest there.
