Glauber's NFL Hot Reads

The 49ers addressed arguably their biggest need today by signing former Eagles cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha to a one-year contract. The deal was first reported by NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

A few hours later, big brother gave a nod to that sentiment. And then trumped it. John Harbaugh said that the Ravens are “prepared to...

NEW ORLEANS — Doug Williams became the first African American quarterback to win the Super Bowl when the Redskins beat the Broncos in Super Bowl XXII.

Twenty five years later, 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick said it would be special to equal Williams’ ground- breaking accomplishment.

"Harbowl."

"Superbaugh."

Whatever you want to call it — the Harbaugh brothers are set to take over New Orleans in the Super Bowl on Feb. 3.
