McNair's death tough one to swallow

Clayton  Coffman by Analyst Written on July 05, 2009

Being a Jacksonville Jaguars fan, I know all the tough losses my team has been dealt from Steve McNair. The most pain? The 1999 AFC Championship Game loss to the physical Titans. When I heard the news of McNair's death, I felt a shot to the gut. This has been one of the craziest weeks that I can remember with the loss of a ton of famous people (McMahon, Jackson). But as I took in McNair's death, I felt ever more anguished being as this man was a great player. From the Oilers to the Titans, McNair flourished in the NFL with his toughness, play-making and incredible desire to win. The death of McNair is tragic. Even as we think these players can't be touched, they can. At any moment lives can be taken. Even heroes that we look up to. God bless the McNair family as they try and get through this hard time.
