The Indianapolis Colts pushed the Bears around tonight and left the field as World Champions. The Colts held onto the football for 38:04 of the game and outgained them 430 to 265!

Peyton Manning won the MVP of the Super Bowl as he completed 25 of 38 passes for 247 yards with 1 TD pass and 1 interception. The Colts offensive line was dominant as they paved the way for the Colts running backs! Dominic Rhodes was awesome tonight as he carried the ball 21 times for 113 yards (5.4 ypc) with 1 TD run. Joseph Addai was also very, very busy as he carried the ball 19 times for 77 yards (4.1 ypc) and he caught 10 passes for 66 yards. Reggie Wayne only caught 2 passes for 61 yards, but one of the catches was a long TD reception in the first quarter. Marvin Harrison also had a decent game with 5 receptions for 59 yards.

The defense came to play tonight as they kept taking the ball away from the Bears. With cornerback Nick Harper hurting and sitting on the sideline, reserve corner Kelvin Hayden made the biggest play of the football game when he intercepted a pass by Rex Grossman early in the 4th quarter and returned it 56 yards for a TD to give the Colts a 29-17 lead. Bob Sanders then picked Grossman off on the Bears next possession and pretty much sealed the Bears fate!  Linebackers Gary Brackett (8 tackles) and Cato June (7 tackles) both had pretty good games.
