The Indianapolis Colts
I was happy to see that Peyton Manning finally got the monkey off his back and for all of you who said Peyton will never make it well I guess he made a liar out of you!
Way to go Peyton and I am so glad I don't have to watch the stupid New England Patriots play in ANOTHER Superbowl. After failing in their two previous attempts against the Patriots in the playoffs, the Colts finally got past their rival -- but it wasn't easy. Indianapolis fell behind 21-3 in the first half and had to pull off the biggest comeback in championship game history to record a 38-34 win over New England and a trip to Super Bowl XLI. Joseph Addai scored the winning points on a 3-yard run with a minute left, the first time the Colts had the lead. Peyton Manning overcame first-half struggles to lead the rally, finishing with 349 yards passing. Tony Dungy's Colts will meet Lovie Smith's Bears in Super Bowl XLI, the first time black head coaches have made the Super Bowl.
Chicago Bears
Grossman was another one after a few bad weeks and being replaced by back up Quaterback Brian Griese because of poor playing he pulled out all the stops against the New Orleans Saints. The Chicago Bears completed their wire-to-wire run as the top team in the NFC with a convincing 39-14 win over the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Championship Game, earning Chicago its first trip to the Super Bowl since the 1985 season. At a cold and snowy Soldier Field, New Orleans turned the ball over four times, while Chicago didn't commit a turnover and had just one penalty. Thomas Jones and Cedric Benson paced the Bears offense, combining for 183 yards rushing and three touchdowns. Lovie Smith becomes the first black head coach to reach the Super Bowl, where he will met another African-American coach in the Colts' Tony Dungy.
