Super Bowl XLIV Recap- Saints Win
Last night I would say that I watched one of the better Super Bowl’s in recent memory. The New Orleans Saints were the underdogs and the sentimental favorites. The Colts looked really tough in the first half. New Orleans didn’t really seem to have an answer in the first half when it came the Colts moving the ball. At Halftime the score was 10-6 in the Colts favor. However in the second half, the Saints started off with an onside kick and actually recovered it. This led the Saints taking the lead 13-10. The Colts answered right back with a touchdown making it 17-13. The third quarter was probably the best quarter of the game. The fourth quarter proved to be an exciting one when Peyton Manning through an interception for a touchdown with only 3:12. He proved without a shadow of doubt that he’s just like any other Quarterback in the NFL, and that he will make mistakes when the pressure is on. That touchdown pretty much sealed the deal for the Saints. The Colts tried moving down the field again but Peyton and the rest of the offense collapsed and he proved that he is no better then Brett Favre, Tom Brady or any of the other great Quarterbacks in the league. He is not invincible and I hope people start understanding that. The final score was 31-17 and Drew Brees was named MVP. This is the first ever win for the Saints in the Super Bowl. New Orleans is probably still celebrating and will continue to celebrate for awhile. Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints on their season and Super Bowl win.
Now as for the commercials. Their were some really hilarious ones if you know what I mean. I thought the Denny’s, Doritos, and Boost Mobile commercials were great. I loved how they brought back the Super Bowl Shuffle and made fun of it. I also loved the Simpson’s Coca-Cola commercial. That was some interesting stuff. I really loved the Snickers and Budweiser commercials. They were hilarious as well. Before I forget the Monster.com with the Fiddling Beaver was absolutely off the wall crazy. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard in my life. The one commercial that was cool was Tim Tebow and his mother talking about his birth and being a miracle baby. It was a very gentle message that didn’t even mention the word abortion like so many people thought.
So between the game, and the commercials it was definitely a great Super Bowl and one I won’t forget anytime soon. Saints win, and now the off season has started. Stay tuned for the NFL Draft in April. Congrats to the Saints again and enjoy the victory, you guys earned it.
