It was a good game. As expected Manning and Brady showdown was great. But it was always going to be Patriots defense against Manning led power offense. The defense played great in the first half and Brady looked invincible in the playoffs again. But the gut showed by Indianapolis in the second half was just too good. After being down and defense not letting Manning hit deep balls, what did he do? He had no option but to go deep and once the ground game established, Peyton knew what he had to do. Play action to sure handed Dallas Clark. Freezing the defense and linebackers and attacking the safety as they go for runs. He was accurate, gutsy and played I think the best game of his career. The passes were thrown with accuracy and precision. To come back from 18 down to defeat the great Patriots speaks volumes on how much Manning wanted this one. With this, it becomes hard not to pick Indidanapolis. Bears defense will have to play one of those 4-5 turnover games to have a chance and Lovie will blitz hard. Why not when he has linebackers like Urlacher and Briggs. This will be another good game. Not much hope for Rex, he can be pathetic at times. I am picking Indianapolis.
