After 21 years at CBS Sports, this was Jim Nantz’s first Super Bowl play by play. His first play 0:18 Now, after 38 years at CBS Sports, this Sunday will be Jim’s 7th Super Bowl call.
A memorable Super Bowl for so many reasons-- Hester's iconic kickoff TD, my Colts won and Peyton got his first ring, first time in a Super Bowl that two black head coaches went at it, and Prince performed Purple Rain IN the rain. All kinds of awesome.
Cant blame the loss on Rex at all bro! The defense didn't play near of what they did in the regular season, the Colts ran all over us, defense blew coverages for TDs, Benson fumbled the ball, another fumble lost on ST... Rex had to take risks to try to make up for the whole team terrible performance!!
"gets past the first wave, and here he goes, it's hester, inside the 30, hester's gonna take it all way the for a TOUCHDOWN !!!! NO FLAG AND 92 YARDS !!!" Best play call by Jim Nantz ❤❤❤
yupp. a dome team is the only team to win a SB in awful weather.. and Peyton "cant play in bad weather" is the only QB to win one.. this game was sooo sloppy.. sucks to have the rain
@@crzycolchrisBut Peyton played bad as usual in big games/weather it was just Grossman was even worse. This whole playoff run Peyton was bad he got carried by Colts defense just like in 2015
He threw a pick-six in the 4th Quarter, yet that announcer was acting like, "He'll be fine now, he just had to get it out of his system. The Bears should be fine from here on out."
I remember before this game as a colts fan I was so nervous because it’s the Super Bowl. And my buddy from school kept informing me that we were gonna win and I asked him “how do you know?” And I’ll never forget him saying “you really think Rex Grossman is going to out duel Peyton manning?? And do you really think that defense is gonna be able to hang with that colts offense?” And I just sat there and said “…point taken” 😂
My favorite line leading up to this game…Tony Dunghy “We should play this one in Fort Wayne”. These are my two teams (I lean to the Bears because Indy didn’t have a team until I was 19) and I live in Fort Wayne. I loved that Peyton got us one in Indiana but it was a bitter pill against my beloved Bears.
He was a lot stranger and more complicated than that. I think that he had the most games that season with a passer rating over 100. The first half dozen games that season, before teams adjusted to him, he was incredible. I remember Joe Theisman predicting that the Bears would go undefeated. They seemed absolutely unstoppable.
@@ScootyPuffSr7he pretty much was the first jimmy G, just don’t fuck up and you’ll do good but when the team needed up to step up he showed who he really was
The Bears had so many opportunities at the beginning of the game to really run away and put the game away early but they failed to capitalize on which kept the Colts in the game. I'll never forget watching this game as a kid and going absolutely nuts when Hester ran back the opening kickoff. It's a shame cause this Bears team really was a great team to watch, just needed a better QB and they would have probably won it.
My first thought when this game started was, Naturally it has to rain for Peyton’s first Super Bowl. Then when I saw Hester’s return for a touchdown, I thought , omg , it’s never going to happen 😂. Everything seemed to line up perfectly for Montana and Brady, and nothing came easy for Peyton. From the opening kick return for a touchdown, to the Saints recovering the onside kick to start the second half, to the opening snap going over his head vs the Seahawks. Has any top quarterback had to endure as many crazy plays/ situations in Super Bowls??
@jrad410 name one playoff game where bradys special teams made multiple mistakes. I can name 2 off the top of my head for Manning and one was the super bowl against the saints. Many remember the onside kick but also forget the missed fg with Vinatieri out.
@@campete8124 Who cares, weird things happen in football. Brady was down 28-3 in a SB. And won it. So his entire team was playing terrible. But he pulled the troops together, and won, because that's what greatness does. An onside kick, that happen to start the second half. Missed field goal. Guess what, they still could have won that SB. But didn't, because of Peyton's poor play. I remember the bad pick 6 he threw, when they were going down to score, that change the out course of the game. Peyton was great, but a poor performer in the biggest games. He was poor in every SB he played in. How he won MVP in this one, was honestly, just an honorary given he finally won. He was not why they won. Colts defense was excellent, they ran the ball well, and Peyton just kinda game managed. I won't say he did 'nothing' but he wasn't what really shined either.
@@godfather4377 lol no brady played terrible. The falcons wouldn't have broken 20 points without brady giving the short fields and throwing the pick 6. Bills defense held a team that was dropping 35 to 21. 14 points below their avg as usually happens for brady.
Bears maybe could have won this SB if they had at least Jay Cutler as QB, because Rex Grossman was a$$ but got carried by the Bears defense and running game
Agreed. What casual fan or celebrity who decided to follow the Super Bowl would have ever heard of those two? Trent Dilfer has the same number of Super Bowl rings as Joe Namath.
@@cam-edy1294 I wouldn't go so far as to call Namath that. He didn't have the most impressive of careers outside of Super Bowl 3. I was making that comparison because Namath became overrated and got too much hype and media attention for winning one Super Bowl in which he didn't even throw for a touchdown pass. Trent Dilfer was terrible, and his only job was to give the Ravens, who prided themselves on their defense, a lead to work with. For those who want to make Joe Namath a household name because he won that Super Bowl, I tell them, "Many terrible quarterbacks also have one Super Bowl ring." Warren Moon, Jim Kelly, and Dan Marino are all more deserving of the Hall of Fame than Namath is.
I remember watching this game as a kid thinking after the Hester TD and the Harris INT that "Chicago's got this! We're going to win the Super Bowl!" ... And then Rex Grossman reminded us he existed.
One of the stupidest decisions ever to start Grossman in a Super Bowl when they had two other QBs who could at least manage games and not lose it for you. The Bears proved that they were CLEARLY the better team all-around during the regular season and the Colts were just a team that was good enough to make it to the Super Bowl. That Bears team was stacked at every position besides QB. All that being said, I think this Super Bowl loss was the turning point that turned one of the most iconic and most successful NFL franchises into a laughingstock. Here we are now talking about starting over at QB AGAIN. This is why I have to look at Packers fans in Chicago.
Why in the world was Chicago passing on 1st Down almost every time... Thomas Jones was your guy and your identity, but they went away from it and it cost them. Even when the Bears were down 22-17 they still coulda ran the ball heavy especially in the rain but they just... didn't
Im Brazilian 🇧🇷🇧🇷 and that was the first Super Bowl ever I was watching and the very first play was that unforgettable return. In that moment I said "I didn't choose my team Hester did it for me". I hope he gets in the HOF this year what he did will never be done again! Even tho we lost that game Im still a die hard Bears fan 🐻⬇️
Just for the record, I predicted this a few days beforehand, a Friday, 2/2/07! "... And It Came To Pass"-today, some 17 yrs & almost 4 mo. later, I still have lots of of enemies!!
@@Frankieefootballmundial yeah. It’s rough out here for us Bears fans😭. If Cutler didn’t tear his MCL and they actually made Super Bowl 45, I think that game comes down to the wire. If they made it with cutler hurt or benched no chance they beat Pittsburgh

I remember watching this game at a Superbowl party while still in highschool and being one of only two people there wanting the Colts to win. Devin Hester made that beginning part of the night pure hell with my ears ringing from the gloating around me, such a satisfying conclusion however with the only sound in the room coming from me.
Imagine your team has Super Bowl aspirations and your GM picks the 2nd RB in the draft with the 4th ovr pick. 2005 was so quaint and we didn't even know it. 🤣
That game was won by Indy's Offensive Line. Period. As a Bears fan I was crushed but I never saw a better performance in my life as I did from the Colts O Line that night and it made all the difference.
There's a lotta hate for Grossman, but without him, they don't make it this far. He was an MVP candidate through the first six games of this year, and he made a lot of big plays in the first two rounds of the playoffs.
This game is remeberes for the kickoff return and Prince halftime show. Not much to say about the game, like Superbowl 40 the year before. Its weird if you talk to Manning, he probbaly wouldnt say either of bis SB victories were hos most memorable moments, just because how much control his team had in them.
This was my first Super Bowl too. We all had a Super Bowl party for the first time and when Hester brought it all the way all of our jaws were on the floor lmao I will never forget that moment ever
@@user-wx3fm4gc2d I should’ve been more specific, I wasn’t referring to all of them literally, I was only referring to the first 3 John Elway Super Bowls before the one vs himself and Favre.
Manning had to overcome the top 3 defenses in the league to get this Super Bowl. The Ravens (On the road), Patriots (Coming back from 21-3) and Bears (Playing in the rain and already down a TD thanks to Hester)
Colts run was impressove. The turnaround of the defense really showed. Outside the Pats, held everyone under 20 and of course won that raven game where there wasnt a single Td scored
Not if you appreciate defense. Bears had a phenomenal defense that year. Unfortunately the pro bowl safety (Mike Brown) and DT (Tommie Harris) were on IR.
I remember being a kid watching this performance by one of my all time Fav QBs - Manning. This was a tall task for Manning and Wayne up against Urlacher and the bears defense. The best defensive line at the time.
I was 5 years old, and I still remember my whole family SCREAMING AND JUMPING to the kickoff and remember more than anything my family with their face in their palms.
It wasn't a weird QB matchup. It was just clearly one-sided. Rex Grossman was not even a Superbowl caliber Quarterback. Peyton Manning carried his team and was going to be a franchise Quarterback. He was young back then and he was hungry. I'm a Bears fan and the only blossom of this game was........Devin Hester in the beginning and our legit defense.
Watching this after Super Bowl 58 thinking how nice it is not to hear a color commentator going "OOOHHHHHHH JIIIIIIIMMMMM!!!! LOOK JIIIIIMMMM OOOHHHHH!!!!!" every 10 seconds
Hester returning the opening kick is legit the only play of this game that I remember. The pain of losing a winnable game is the only part I remember 17 years later.
People wanna blame Rex but if mike brown and tank Johnson play and they didn’t play in the pouring rain I think this Super Bowl is a different story. Nobody could hold on to the ball.
Not during that year. It's underrated now. Had the Bears won that SB, the defense would be in the goat discussion. As a colts fan, I was mostly worried about Hester on that day. If the Colts contained him they would win the game.
I completely forgot that it was raining for this superbowl. I was just telling a coworker how Supperbowls always being in domes or in good wrather were annoying because weather is a part of the game.
@@Hossflex True but he actually won unlike Woodley and Grossman so he's got one up on them besides, he was a game manager who actually did what was asked of him.
I loved that the dome team beat the outdoor team in a bad weather Super Bowl, and that the "finesse" team completely ran over the tough team. Dominic Rhodes was robbed of the Super Bowl MVP.
I missed much of this game because of work. 1. Didn't realize how much it was raining 2. Which in turn led to so many fumbles 3. Chicago scored most their points in the 1st qt 💀
Bears gave this game away. Why did they have Grossman passing on 1st down with 11:47 left in the fouth when they have Thomas Jones is beyond me. They were only down 5 points. Fumbles didn't help either.
Yea it looked like Rex blew that game . Those turnovers by Cedric Benson , and the special teams didn’t help as well . The defense play well enough to win that game . They held a young MVP level Peyton Manning in check . They should’ve cashed in on that opportunity. I didn’t see the game because I had to work that day , but from the clips I have seen, that was the bears game to win . Rex didn’t help .
4:25 As a Bears fan I thought we won at that point. Colts had shown NOTHING on offense except turnovers and a blown coverage TD, and Rex was moving the ball. 😊😭
Years later you should know that’s how manning plays seems like she’s warming up in the 1st Qt(seeing how the defense plays) 2nd QT starts seeing what he can get away with 3rd QT wears the defense out with audibles 4th QT Destroys them with more audibles Last 2 mins final form of audibles

@@user-wx3fm4gc2d I should’ve been more specific, I wasn’t referring to all of them literally, I was only referring to the first 3 John Elway Super Bowls before the one vs himself and Favre.
I Agree With You Kevin Uchiha
That kickoff return will forever be legendary 💙
It's nice to see someone score a touchdown without them doing stupid excessive TD celebrations and dances.
They also aren't all wearing ridiculous arm sleeves, baggy t shirts, and the stadium isn't only playing trap
This was the first Super Bowl I remember watching when I was 8 years old and as a colts fan it’s sad it’s all been down hill since then
Devon Hester is now in the Hall of Fame finally❤
Manning had to overcome the top 3 defenses in the league to get this Super Bowl. The Ravens (On the road), Patriots (Coming back from 21-3) and Bears (Playing in the rain and already down a TD thanks to Hester)
Colts run was impressove. The turnaround of the defense really showed. Outside the Pats, held everyone under 20 and of course won that raven game where there wasnt a single Td scored
One of the most boring superbowls this century
I agree, the next 3 after this one were good though.
Not if you appreciate defense. Bears had a phenomenal defense that year. Unfortunately the pro bowl safety (Mike Brown) and DT (Tommie Harris) were on IR.
Laughs in Rams-Pats. This was a track meet compared to that game, in the elements no less.
@@Gatlin96 Rams Patriots Super Bowl 53 might arguably be the worst one.
@@LiamDeegeit was lol it was the lowest rating Super Bowl
Devin Hester’s 92-yard kickoff return for a touchdown is amazing.
I remember being a kid watching this performance by one of my all time Fav QBs - Manning. This was a tall task for Manning and Wayne up against Urlacher and the bears defense. The best defensive line at the time.
I was 5 years old, and I still remember my whole family SCREAMING AND JUMPING to the kickoff and remember more than anything my family with their face in their palms.
Script foreshadowing for Sunday
The college football championship game earlier that year also opened with a kickoff return for a TD. The kickoff returning TD team also lost.
It wasn't a weird QB matchup. It was just clearly one-sided. Rex Grossman was not even a Superbowl caliber Quarterback. Peyton Manning carried his team and was going to be a franchise Quarterback. He was young back then and he was hungry. I'm a Bears fan and the only blossom of this game was........Devin Hester in the beginning and our legit defense.
Watching this after Super Bowl 58 thinking how nice it is not to hear a color commentator going "OOOHHHHHHH JIIIIIIIMMMMM!!!! LOOK JIIIIIMMMM OOOHHHHH!!!!!" every 10 seconds
I’ve always referred to this as The Turnover Bowl.
And now Devin Hester is finally going to the Hall of Fame!!!
So deserving!! Devin's been long overdue.
Hester returning the opening kick is legit the only play of this game that I remember.
The pain of losing a winnable game is the only part I remember 17 years later.
Your RUclips Channel Is My Favorite NFL Throwback
prior to this season people kept saying "Peyton Manning can't win the Superbowl" he proved the doubters wrong also L bears
Yes! Thank you for the upload! Even though my Bears lost its great to see Devin Hester again!
People wanna blame Rex but if mike brown and tank Johnson play and they didn’t play in the pouring rain I think this Super Bowl is a different story. Nobody could hold on to the ball.
Colts clinch with a pick six. Next Colts Super Bowl the Saints clinch with a pick six.
Rex Grossman lmao 🤣
I will never forget Devin Hester’s name
That bears defense was underrated that year imo
Not during that year. It's underrated now. Had the Bears won that SB, the defense would be in the goat discussion.
As a colts fan, I was mostly worried about Hester on that day. If the Colts contained him they would win the game.
I completely forgot that it was raining for this superbowl. I was just telling a coworker how Supperbowls always being in domes or in good wrather were annoying because weather is a part of the game.
It's a toss up between Rex Grossman and David Woodley for worst SB QBs of all time. At least this game has the iconic Devin Hester return.
Trent Dilfer would like a word
@@Hossflex True but he actually won unlike Woodley and Grossman so he's got one up on them besides, he was a game manager who actually did what was asked of him.
Thanks NFL Throwback for these mini SB videos. The title I'm not sure I understand. My choice would have been 'Peyton's Singing in the Rain'.
Man what a huge play by bob sanders to cause that fumble, could have gotten dicey if bears made it 21-6
If only this had been a "Good Rex" game.
Rex knew he didn't belong in a Super Bowl and played like it. Peyton Manning said that he looked like "a deer in the headlights" on the field.
I remember predicting this game about 2 days before: and it came to pass... eventually!!
I loved that the dome team beat the outdoor team in a bad weather Super Bowl, and that the "finesse" team completely ran over the tough team. Dominic Rhodes was robbed of the Super Bowl MVP.
I turned it off after the Hester return … all I was here for lol
I missed much of this game because of work.
1. Didn't realize how much it was raining
2. Which in turn led to so many fumbles
3. Chicago scored most their points in the 1st qt 💀
I was 22 when this happened. I'm almost 40.
It may never happen again, but I'll never have to wait to see if it does.
Bears gave this game away. Why did they have Grossman passing on 1st down with 11:47 left in the fouth when they have Thomas Jones is beyond me. They were only down 5 points. Fumbles didn't help either.
As a Bears fan, I knew we had it won when Hester returned the kickoff for a TD…then Grossman took the field and I was snapped back to reality.
If i remember correctly the first 6 games or so rex was balling
@@playthatagainbruh394 he was until the Arizona game. After that 6 turnover night he wasn’t the same.
The NFL wanted a black head coach to win a super bowl so bad, they couldn't lose in this one!
Yea it looked like Rex blew that game . Those turnovers by Cedric Benson , and the special teams didn’t help as well . The defense play well enough to win that game . They held a young MVP level Peyton Manning in check . They should’ve cashed in on that opportunity. I didn’t see the game because I had to work that day , but from the clips I have seen, that was the bears game to win . Rex didn’t help .
Rex Grossman makes Zach Wilson look awesome.
When I look back this game there were so many chances the Bears had to when this game, but it’s the QB that really makes a difference
I had the bears d/special teams on my fantasy that year and it was literally my best player
they were so scared of devin hester they were willing to just give the bears good field position. lol.
I Was Happy To See Peyton Manning get his 1st SuperBowl Ring and seeing the Bears Lose as an Packers Fan
Bob Sanders was an absolute savage
I remember watching this game with my dad & stepmom. I also remember my dad taking the bears to win the game 😂😂😂😂😂.
4:25 As a Bears fan I thought we won at that point. Colts had shown NOTHING on offense except turnovers and a blown coverage TD, and Rex was moving the ball. 😊😭
Years later you should know that’s how manning plays seems like she’s warming up in the 1st Qt(seeing how the defense plays) 2nd QT starts seeing what he can get away with
3rd QT wears the defense out with audibles
4th QT Destroys them with more audibles
Last 2 mins final form of audibles
You really thought Rex Grossman would win this😂😅
