Defense leads the Bears to Super Bowl XLI, win 39-14.

The Saint was 3-13 last year. Sean Payton comes in and revamps the whole team. Sean P, will definitely be back next year to coach the Saints. The Bears were to powerful for the un-experienced New Orleans Saints. Sean today, ends the season with the Saints 10-7, which is proud 10 & 7. Everyone just remember that it took forty for the Saints to get to the championship game. The Saints and NFL Coach of the Year Sean Payton, however, has appreciated every moment of this opportunity.

The Saints ended the 2^nd quarter finally put points on the board. After halftime, Reggie Bush's electrifying 88-yard touchdown catch and dash to the end zone pulled the Saints within two points, 16-14. But from then on, Brian Urlacher and the Bears' defense took over.

“Chicago, which has won nine NFL titles but has been an also-ran for much of the last two decades, later went 85 yards in five plays in the worst of the weather. Often-criticized Grossman had four completions, including a 33-yarder to a diving Bernard Berrian that clinched it, sending the bundled-up fans in Soldier Field into foot-stomping hysteria and chants of "Super Bowl, Super Bowl."

Smith and Bears owner Virginia McCaskey, daughter of Bears founder George Halas, accepted the Halas Trophy moments after Grossman tossed the ball deep into the stands after the final kneel-down.” www.NFL.com

Its now time for The National Football League to be represented in the Super bowl, Lovie Smith will lead the Chicago Bears there, the first black head coach to make it to the title game in its 41 years. They did it in true Bears fashion -- big plays on defense and a steady running game in the sleet and snow, ending the Saints' uplifting saga.

The Bears (15-3) will play either the Patriots or Colts, who met for the AFC title, in Miami in two weeks.
