The Best Blips In The New Orleans and Indianapolis Super Bowl
Well, if you love the game of football, then you probably enjoyed this year’s outstanding Super Bowl game that was so awesome to watch. This was the third year in a row that this game was truly worth watching, unlike the games from the years prior to then.
The New Orleans Saints surprised the sports world by beating an Indianapolis Colts team that was favored to win the game. Much of this occurred thanks to a powerful offensive performance on the part of Drew Brees and his teammates, but the New Orleans defense was equally efficient in limiting Colts quarterback Peyton Manning.
Let’s take a look at a few of the top stories from Super Bowl XLIV. If you missed out on the game, here are the things you should know about.
To begin with, although he started the game on shaky ground by only getting three completions from his first seven pass attempts, Drew Brees then went on to have a close to perfect game. He got 29 out of the next 32 attempts and finished the game with a total of 32 completions from 39 attempts, 2 touchdown passes, zero turnovers and 288 total yards.
These statistics are truly superb and, of course, Brees received the award for giving such an efficient performance as a quarterback in this Super Bowl.
Let’s not take anything away from Garrett Hartley, the Saint’s young kicker. He attempted and made all three of his field goals from 44, 46 and 47 yards. These were vital in helping them to win, considering that they were losing to the Colts whenever he made two of them.
Lastly, there was a controversy that emerged after the game involving Peyton Manning. After losing the game to the Saints, the Indianapolis quarterback stormed off the field without shaking hands with or congratulating any of the New Orleans players.
The custom is that the players on the losing team will congratulate the players on the winning team, so what Manning did is being called poor sportsmanship by a lot of people. To the contrary, Drew Brees stated that he does not hold anything against Manning because he knows how that frustration feels.
