From Robbie Rainwater, Greenville, N.C.: I know both teams have a great running game, but don't you think it may come down to who has a better passing game?
Theismann: Absolutely. I don't disagree with that at all. You create a lead throwing the ball; you preserve a lead running the ball.
From Matt Schivera, London: What are the chances of you doing the Dirty Bird on TV if the Falcons win?
Theismann: I won't be on TV, because ESPN isn't doing the game. If Atlanta won, I wouldn't want to embarrass the Falcons by trying to do the Dirty Bird because it wouldn't look like the Dirty Bird. I failed miserably trying the Lambeau Leap. The wall in back of the Packers' end zone is higher than you think. I didn't quite make it into the stands.
From Bill Schulte, Colorado Springs, Colo.: Who is going to win Super Bowl XXXIII and why?
Theismann: I think the Falcons will win. They are quick enough defensively
to contain Denver's offense, and I think their offense is balanced in
such a way that they've proven they can score points passing or running.
And Jamal Anderson can take the air out of Denver's balloon with the
Falcons ahead late in the game.
