The scene on the field in the immediate moments following Super Bowl XLIV was one of jubilation.
Saints QB Drew Brees was selected as MVP of Super Bowl XLIV after leading his team to a 31-17 win over the Colts, and the first NFL title in club history.
The improbable just happened: Peyton Manning threw an interception at the worst possible time in Super Bowl XLIV, ending what was looking like a game-tying drive for the Colts late in the fourth quarter.
The Saints' challenge of a two-point conversion play in the fourth quatrer of Super Bowl XLIV was rewarded after officials reversed their earlier call that Lance Moore didn't cleanly catch Drew Brees' pass.
Drew Brees was perfect on the Saints last scoring drive, completing all seven of his attempts on the drive to seven different receivers.
While most of the pre-snap attention goes to Peyton Manning when the Colts have the ball, it is the clever adjustment orchestrated by the Saints’ Jonathan Vilma that is keying New Orleans' improved defensive play in this game.
Saints QB Drew Brees isn't under any pressure, and Colts DE Dwight Freeney's injured ankle might be slowing him down as the Super Bowl progresses.
We all know a coach can't win the Super Bowl MVP. And we know this game is far from over. But if the Saints win, coach Sean Payton will have been a big part of the reason why.
Colts tight end Dallas Clark’s domination of safety Roman Harper is putting Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams in a quandary when it comes to play-calling.
Sean Payton has earned a reputation for being a brilliant play-caller during his tenure in New Orleans, and his beautifully scripted scoring drive to open the second half of Super Bowl XLIV showcased his masterful talents.
Saints coach Sean Payton took his second gamble of the game by attempting an onside kick to start the second half. This time, his gamble paid off, as the Saints recovered.
The Saints turned the tables in the second quarter of Super Bowl XLIV and dominated the Colts.

Peyton Manning directed a Super Bowl record-tying 96-yard drive that ended on a 19-yard touchdown pass to Pierre Garcon, giving the Colts a 10-0 lead over the Saints in the first quarter.
The Colts’ lightly regarded running game is giving the Saints fits behind Joseph Addai’s workmanlike effort.
Teams that score first are 28-15 all-time in Super Bowls, but have also lost five of the last eight.
The only thing left is the usual rather lame prediction. But, basing my theory on the truly original and totally Brit-oriented fairytale factor (i.e. using the idea of the winner being the one with the most ‘romantic’ storyline) from the 16 years since I first started covering the Super Bowl, I can exclusively reveal that...
It’s about 30 minutes before kickoff, and the scene around the field at Sun Life Stadium is still frenzied and electric. And it’s not just because AC/DC is playing inside the stadium.
Colts DE Dwight Freeney started Sunday's Super Bowl against the Saints despite missing practice the last two weeks because of an injured right ankle.
Seahawks LT Walter Jones posted a cryptic message on his Twitter account Sunday (via the Seattle Post-Intelligencer), suggesting that he's retiring after some injury problems.
There's no doubt about it, it's a true Brit-fest here at XLIV.
Dwight Freeney didn't look bad moving around in warmups. Looks like he can go straight ahead. What you don't know is if can he push off against pressure. But he absolutely looked better than you thought he would. The Colts are going to try to get some situational pass rush out of him.
Of course, just as soon as I make some exceedingly inane remark about shiny trophies, we get this monstrosity from the Russian Football Federation. This trophy, which goes to the club who has the best combined finish in the Russian Premier League and its equivalent youth competition, is made of almost 44,000 diamonds and 2.5 [...]

We all love a good underdog story. There’s a reason the NFL keeps bringing out Joe Namath and his 14-point underdog New York Jets every year. (This year more than others.) It’s the same reason college basketball fans look back fondly on 1983 and 1985, the same reason we enjoy Leeds United’s 1-0 FA Cup [...]

If Major League Soccer follows through on its threat to lock out the players union, does that mean Landon Donovan gets recalled from Everton?
I haven’t seen anyone else ask, and I figure I should, because if it’s true, it would suck on several levels. Donovan played awfully well in his first Premier League match, getting [...]
Kiffin to go to USC.
Are you surprised? I’m not. What in the world has told you that Lane Kiffin is anything but a man of low moral fiber. The multiple offseason controversies of last season? The fact that two of his hottest recruits rolled up on random people at a gas station for pocket change? [...]
My interest in the NFL playoffs seems to have hit an all-time low.
I’m still paying attention, of course, but aside from being utterly transfixed by that shootout in Arizona, I haven’t actually been watching all that much. Saturday’s Wild Card playoffs were mostly background noise in my living room, while the Ravens’ win over the [...]
