SB XLV Post Mortem

It's amazing that a team that started the season at 3-3 , and who ended up with more than a dozen players on the season-ending injured reserve list, managed to turn things around as was the case with the Green Bay Packers.  Remeber, this was a team, as the number six seed in the NFC playoffs, had to win AT Philadelphia, AT Atlanta, and AT Chicago, just to get to the Super Bowl.  The Packers made very few mistakes on Sunday night.  The offensive line did a very good job protecting Aaron Rodgers, who might have had an even better night if not for a handful of dropped passed.  The Green Bay defense certainly did their job, coming up with three big takeaways which contributed to 21 of Green Bay's 31 points---one of the touchdonws happened directly as Nick Collins returned an intercepted Ben Roethlisberger pass to the house.

The Green Bay Packers cetainly earned their fourth Super Bowl title and their 13th NFL championship overall last night down at Arlington, Texas.

Now we'll see if we have NFL football next season.
