January means a lot of things that many different people. It is the position to make the reality gluttony of the holidays, a time and break the large and rapid decline of the good intentions of its decisions from the moment of drunkenness. But it is also a time for football. are desperate for the cracking of bone to the end zone from 12 teams in the NFL tries to the big game to get the biggest night in professional sports, the Super Bowl, January the sky. But as the heavens have been situated to the first Sunday in February, when all the fluff and could lose out flakes on the floor, licking his wounds.
Both teams have two weeks off and prepare for the biggest party around the great Duke it for the Lombardi Trophy. This year for the first time in a few years, two long time away it will do so again to the big game, and the promise and wonder more than a big name.
On the side of the NFC, the Bears next favorite after one of the finest seasons in the NFL, a team that is too large to be learned again, and then forgot, led by their young quarterback Rex Grossman. They narrowly escaped a growing team of Seattle Seahawks under similar pressure, and really crushed the Saints this weekend to prove once and for all the strength of the Bears in September and October.
It is for 21 years, the Bears in the Super Bowl, the last time in 1985, stabbed to death after the OFT fun on the crew of the Super Bowl Shuffle. The years are not kind to the bears, but have finally, after almost two decades back in shape and promises believers in Chicago tickled, as it could be. This is not the mighty Monster Ditka was in charge away from the Patriots in 85 though. This is a weaker defense, an unproven quarterback and unpredictable, and without expectations of glory. This is a loser in every sense of the word.
In Indianapolis, the feelings are similar, except that this Colts team is a great team. In fact, this Colts team has been great for many years. Under the direction of Peyton Manning, once the playoffs have every year for the past five years and each year we sort of collapse, a breakdown of the last hour of his quarterback had. was against the Patriots in the playoffs before Sunday Peyton Manning 0-3 in 25 units with a touchdown and distribution 9th You will not win games. Not even a little. And I was not looking for something better this weekend or last weekend for that matter. Vinatieri has 10 field goals in the playoffs so far made a new NFL record. You have to play another game. And the first half of Sunday's game against the Patriots was more trouble than Peyton, Colts and Patriots inevitable domination of the playoffs. At one point, from 21-3 people from Indianapolis was stunned disbelief house waving at the stadium in terms of impressive silence as the Colt defense repeatedly folded against Tom Brady an d his offensive line.
But what happened in the second half. Manning woke, woke and turned on his side. In one of the most exciting games in the playoffs this year, led the Colts back in 21 draws, while New England had several times before only to be tied back. With 2 minutes before a brilliant drive, Manning lead over the field and a running game to diversify a testament to the ability Colt to the court for the strength of their quarterback, took the lead with a minute to play. And with an interception in the last game of the game, Manning said his rightful place in the great play of his predecessors in the NFL.
He was mocked, ridiculed, and said his team's failure to get to the big game in years. But do not forget John Elway or Brett Favre, two of the greatest quarterbacks to the game that took many years to play out their teams at the center, played very well to break every year just to print the big game. Well, now they can Manning in the ranks of those who the stigma of their records of the playoffs join overcame.
Of course there are to play a different game. If you can not win the big Super Bowl, what a difference it makes when it is finally making there? And buried in the bottom of the subplots is the gossip bit head coach of each team - Lovie Smith the first black coach of the Super Bowl could be reached, and only a few hours later, Tony Dungy. The two men, old friends and colleagues to quit as one of the many projectors in the next two weeks Super Bowl hype, including shortcomings and achievements Peyton Manning, the weakest of the bear and the profitability of their young quarterback the job. But what is the game itself?
Which of these two giants of the grill have more chances to win in February? The money will be in Indianapolis. But barely. The odds are in advantage of the Colts within seven points of entry to 04 February in Miami. The variables are many more questions, but here are some things that you can not forget.
The Bears' defense is mediocre at best. They have been in the middle of the pack throughout the year, and almost took the victory over Seattle, a team whose offensive production has been abysmal this year. But his display against New Orleans on Sunday was impressive. If the same person may appear in Miami, have a good chance to do something against the powerful offense of Peyton Manning. As one of the most prolific quarterbacks of this decade, Manning immediate edge against any defense with a history of problems. Shown to be the curse of the playoffs, and now to break with the bonus Brady team behind him, targeted the Chicago school. Indianapolis has the advantage here, but everybody does not seem to play the game of anyone.
And what about Rex Grossman? The distribution is now infamous post-season, a testament to her youth and fragility of the Bears team. But if he plays well, plays very well. And when a team is hot, could easily qualify as the Colts and without mercy, as Indianapolis fans know everything right from the first half of Sunday. Peyton Manning, you're probably ready to play and play to win. He has a long time to wait out. I would say the defense will win this game, but all depends on how Grossman has to play. When Grossman is this weekend against the Saints, which could be a way of fighting. If not, the guys from Tony Dungy, the trophy will be high and mighty on their heads in Miami.
