Finally...

He got it done.

The Colts, the team that can't stop the run, can't beat the Pats, and can never win the big one got it done. It wasn't the best game Peyton ever played, but he was solid, especially when you consider the team was down 18 in the first half. Great job by Dungy to keep his team motivated. Thank god we don't have to see the Pats in the Super Bowl again and another two weeks of how much Brady and Little Bill are gods of football. Couple of key points 1) 21-3, it's third down at the Colts 30 for the Pats...an offensive PI and an illegal shift cost them three points. 2) End of the game, two minutes and change left, Pats are unable to run the ball out. They instead pass. Why? I have no clue. However, you'd expect Brady to be money like he usually is...and he wasn't for that one drive. Weird game, even game but the Colts deserve it.

The Bears demolished the Saints, bring back that defense that played early in the year. Surprising that the Saints didn't run more, especially when you consider the conditions were awful, but the Bears were the better for most of the game. Rex Grossman, however, will surpass Trent Dilfer as the worst quarterback to win a Super Bowl if da Bears win it all.

Finally, social progress. We'll have our first African-American head coach win a Super Bowl, either Tony Dungy or Lovie Smith. With the Super Bowl to take place during Black History Month, couldn't think of a better tribute.
