NFL Final Four, One Win Away from Super Bowl XLI

The Indianapolis Colts, the New England Patriots, the Chicago Bears and the New Orleans Saints.

Yes, those teams are your official NFL Final Four as each team is merely one win away from the biggest and grandest stage in all of American sports, the Super Bowl.

Who will advance to Super Bowl XLI and win it all this year? Read on.

New England Patriots +3

Indianapolis Colts -3

Yes, the Indianapolis Colts and the New England Patriots will meet each other in the AFC Championship game, playing for a trip to Miami, Florida.

New Orleans Saints +3

Chicago Bears -3

The Chicago Bears and the New Orleans Saints will be playing for the exact same thing in the NFC as two teams who had absolutely no chance of winning it all at the start of the season find themselves a win away from a Super Bowl berth.

Who'll be going to Super Bowl XLI? Read on.

It's all happening again in the AFC as Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts face Tom Brady and the New England Patriots at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis for the right to advance to the Super Bowl. Both the Colts and the Patriots were able to survive two weeks of the NFL Football playoffs, each failing to have that important first round bye. Well, apparently, it didn't matter as Indianapolis upset the Ravens in Baltimore after beating the Chiefs at home while New England just recently shocked the Chargers in San Diego after destroying the pesky Jets at Foxboro.

Peyton always had his problems against Brady in the post-season. However, THIS TIME, Peyton has Brady's most lethal weapon yet coming to this AFC Championship game, Adam Vinateri. It could be Peyton's year, and if I was a betting man, I'd expect just that.

In the NFC, the New Orleans Saints continue their improbable march this season as they meet the Chicago Bears in the NFC Championship game. If you asked anyone who will represent the NFC in Super Bowl XLI, no one will probably be picking the Saints or the Bears. Who knew both of these NFL Football teams would have the season they had this year?

The New Orleans Saints, yes, they were a team coming off from the devastation Hurricane Katrina brought to Louisiana. We all heard about it. We all felt sorry for New Orleans, especially for the New Orleans Saints, whipping boys of football the last couple of years.

On the other end of the field, we have the Chicago Bears, electrifying the nation with a hot start for the season nobody saw coming. The Bears will come into this NFC Championship game with something to prove. Nobody's giving the Bears, specifically Rex Grossman, that much credit, even after knocking out the defending NFC Champions, Seattle Seahawks.

A win on Sunday will fix just that.
