The 2014 Super Bowl, to be held on February 2, 2014 will be at New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ.
In what will prove to be a historic vote on May 25, 2010, the league owners chose the NY/NJ bid over Tampa and Miami bids for hosting Super Bowl XLVIII.

On Wednesday the New York Jets and the New York Giants made their bid to host the 2014 Super Bowl at the new Meadowlands Stadium. However, there is some controversy surrounding this bid as it will be the first time the Super Bowl will not be held in a stadium with a roof, or in a place where the minimum game day temperature is around 50 degrees.
These have been the requirements since the first Super Bowl in 1967, but when the National Football League waived those game day requirements it gave the Jets and the Giants the go-ahead to submit a joint bid to be the host. On May 25 NFL owners will be voting on the game’s 2014 location.
The game will either be held in NYC, South Florida, or Tampa, and it will be up to the 32 NFL owners who are voting to decide. If none of the cities get votes from 24 of the owners (75 percent of the vote) on the first ballot, then no one will be determined the winner. However, the city with the lowest votes will be removed from the competition, and then the winner will be decided on the second ballet by majority rule.

As the New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts take the field on Sunday, many NFL fans will be curious to see if Dwight Freeney of the Colts will be playing in the Super Bowl.
On Sunday night the colts were describing the defensive end’s injury to his lower ankle just a sprain, but ESPN described him as having torn ankle ligaments. They also made it clear that it is a serious injury and may keep Dwight Freeney out of the Super Bowl. In any case, he will most likely be sitting out for the major practices leading up to the big game.
A sports injury expert named Will Carroll explained that if the injury is a Grade 3 ligament injury that means the ligaments in his ankle are 50% torn or more. He suspects that injury won’t heal quickly enough since it occurred not long ago, towards the ending of the AFC Championship Game. However, he also mentioned that he couldn’t imagine Freeney not playing.
Super Bowl XLIV will be played on Sunday February 7, 2010 at the Sun Life Stadium (formerly Dolphin Stadium) in Miami, Florida. See for yourself in person if Dwight Freeney’s injury will be enough to keep him out of the biggest NFL game of the year.

Colts vs Saints in Super Bowl XLIV
Super Bowl XLIV is scheduled for February 7, 2010 at Sun Life Stadium (formerly Dolphin Stadium) in Miami Gardens, Florida.
The Colts fell behind the New York Jets early in the AFC Championship game but with support from their home crowd were able to rattle off 24 unanswered points to claim the AFC title. The NY Jets can be proud of the season they had as at mid-season it seemed the playoffs were out of reach.
In the NFC Championship game it took an overtime session to decide the winner. In a great battle with the Minnesota Vikings, the New Orleans Saints were able to pull out a victory with an overtime field goal by kicker Garrett Hartley.
Both teams fought hard to win their conferences but nothing will compare to the pressure of playing in the Super Bowl. The Colts with league MVP Peyton Manning at quarterback and the Saints with charismatic leader Drew Brees at the helm are two offensive powerhouses that are sure to put on a great show. Super Bowl XLIV is shaping up to be one heck of a game.
Not to be forgotten is the halftime show provided by The Who. With classic songs like My Generation, Who Are You, Baba O’Riley and Won’t Get Fooled Again, even halftime will be hard-hitting!
Before all is said and done, Super Bowl XLIV looks like it will be one for the ages — find Super Bowl tickets today at SelectATicket.com.
While the National Football League playoffs are heading into the Conference Championships this weekend to determine the combatants for Super Bowl XLIV, SelectATicket.com is already accepting requests for Super Bowl Tickets.
The Indianapolis Colts will host the New York Jets to determine the AFC champions and the Minnesota Vikings travel to New Orleans to take on the Saints in the NFC Championship Game. The two Conference champions will compete for the Super Bowl at LandShark Stadium in Miami on February 7.
“No matter which teams advance to the Super Bowl, it is one of the biggest annual events in all of sports and with halftime entertainment provided by The Who this year, Super Bowl tickets are going to be hard to come by,” says Tom Patania, CEO of SelectATicket.
The Indianapolis Colts feature a strong offense with star quarterback Peyton Manning, wide receiver Reggie Wayne and tight end Dallas Clark providing the bulk of the offense. However, they will face the NFL’s stingiest defense in the New York Jets. This season the Jets led the NFL in Total Yards Allowed per game and Passing Yards Allowed per game.
In the NFC, the high powered offense of the New Orleans Saints is what has brought them this far. Quarterback Drew Brees and Co. defeated the Arizona Cardinals 45-14 to advance to the NFC Championship game. The Minnesota Vikings, led by veteran quarterback Brett Favre, handily defeated the Dallas Cowboys 34-3 to earn the chance to play for the NFC Championship.
With a spot in the Super Bowl on the line, both games are certain to be hard-fought battles.

In a game that perhaps exceeded the expectations of most of us, the Pittsburg Steelers outlasted the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl 43 on Sunday. Despite the great play of Kurt Warner and Larry Fitzgerald – particularly late in the game – the Steelers were able to strike last and eventually put out the flames.
It was Ben Roethlisberger’s touchdown pass to Santonio Holmes (and subsequently Holmes’ phenomenal footwork) that gave the Steelers the win. This followed a phenomenal 2-minute drill that drove the Steelers down field to give them a chance in the final minutes.
Fans who were lucky enough to procure Super Bowl tickets were on the edge of their seats in the fourth quarter when Arizona QB Kurt Warner found Larry Fitzgerald over the middle for a 64 yard touchdown to put Arizona up 23-20 with 2:37 left in the game. But much to the credit of Mike Tomlin, the Pittsburgh coaching staff, and the Roethlisberger-Holmes connection, the Steelers closed the deal.
Santonio Holmes was named the Super Bowl 43 MVP, but the award could easily have gone to Roethlisberger, or James Harrison, who’s 100-yard interception return to end the first half set the pace. All-in-all, Super Bowl 43 was one of the best football games of the century, and great way to close out the NFL season!
Sunday is the Super Bowl and the Cardinals are in it – like it or not. There are many people out there who are still saying that the Cardinals don’t deserve to be there, and I just simply don’t agree. Granted their regular season didn’t go so well, but you can’t fault any team for winning their division – regardless of how bad the NFC West is.
Though they ‘barely’ made it into the playoffs, they have torn through some solid competition in the playoffs including the Panthers on the road and the Eagles, who were the consensus favorites to make the Super Bowl. Nevertheless the Cardinals got it done.
They deserve our respect. Tune in or grab Super Bowl tickets and see if they can continue their remarkable run.
Despite the recent concerns about the status Ben Roethlisberger and Hines Ward’s injuries, the Steelers remain one touchdown favorites over the Cardinals in Super Bowl 43. The Steelers have had the best defense in the league all season, and when their offense is clicking, they have been absolutely unstoppable.
The Cardinals have relied on their powerful offense, led by Kurt Warner, all season and they are looking to expose the gaps in the Steelers D that few teams have found throughout the season. Apparently the oddsmakers believe that a powerful defense trumps a powerful offense, thus the 7 point advantage to Pittsburgh.
I’m not a betting man, but I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see the Cardinals cover that spread as we end up with a field goal deciding the Super Bowl Champion. Don’t think I’m right? Grab some Super Bowl tickets and see for yourself.
As the Pittsburgh Steelers gear up to face the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl 43, they can reflect back on their 2008 season and pinpoint the aspects of their game that have led them this far. One shining piece of their amazing season is their staunch defense which has made them a Super Bowl contender all season long.
This season the Steelers ranked at the top in every major defensive statistical category, some of which are as follows:
It has often been said that “defense wins championships”… Well we are about to see if that remains true in 2009. Grab Super Bowl tickets now and watch the hard-hitting, fast-paced, nose-to-nose style of the AFC champion Pittsburgh Steelers.
In the so called “man game” of the weekend, the two defenses of Baltimore and Pittsburgh made life difficult on the opposing offenses as Pittsburgh was able to seal it late with a Troy Palumalu pick six as the Steelers won 23-14.
Ben Roethlesberger and Santonio Holmes led the way for Pitts offense, while McNabb and Kevin Curtis offered the offensive power for the Eagles. But, as it was billed, defense was the key for both teams as interceptions gave Pittsburgh the decided advantage.
Next up for Pittsburgh is the big one against Arizona’s potent offense. Get your Super Bowl tickets now and don’t miss out on great group deals and ticket packages!
In one of the most improbable late-season runs in recent NFL history, the Arizona Cardinals are set to face the Steelers in Super Bowl XLIII. Behind a phenomenal first effort (mostly by Larry Fitzgerald) was enough to push the Cardinals on to victory, despite a late surge from Philadelphia.
At 38 years of age, Kurt Warner is perhaps the biggest story of this post season. Entering his second Super Bowl of the 21st century, he may be the difference for the potent Arizona offense this year. Additionally, the tandem of Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin could rack up the yards in a big way for the Cardinal’s passing game.

The NFC title game is now set as the Eagles of Philadelphia will face the Arizona Cardinals in Phoenix this weekend. After two surprising contests concluded this past weekend, we are down to the two top dogs in the NFC.
On Saturday, the Philadelphia Eagles visited New York to face the Giants. In a defensive contest that saw only one touchdown scored (the Giants managed only 3 field goals and a safety), the Eagle prevailed 23-11.
Sunday brought the blowout that everyone expected, only the “wrong” team prevailed as Arizona overcame their East coast woes to absolutely obliterate the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte, 33-13. Kurt Warner showed he still has what it takes.
Which NFC team will prevail this Sunday and play in Super Bowl XLIII? Grab some tickets and find out!
