Ravens QB Steve McNair Retiring

Sports Illustrated is reporting that Ravens quarterback Steve McNair is announcing his retirement today.  He is probably better known for leading the Titans within 1 foot of a super bowl victory against the  St. Louis Rams in 1999.  While McNair has no official connection to the Broncos I thought it was worth reporting.  I’ve always thought Steve is one of the class acts in the NFL even if I don’t necessarily care for his current team.  Here’s hoping for a happy retired life.  The 35 year old QB had a strong 13-3 season in 2006 with Baltimore but last season had multiple injuries struggling to a 5-11 record.  McNair has always been known as an iron man, fighting through injuries his entire career to play in games he probably shouldn’t have.
