Packers vs. Steelers... Set for Super Bowl 45

This past Sunday, two NFL football teams punched their tickets to Dallas, Texas, for Super Bowl 45.  The Green Bay Packers won 21-14 over the Chicago Bears.  As a result, the Packers became the first NFC team to make the Super Bowl as a number six seed in the playoffs.  On the AFC side, the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the New York Jets 24-19.  This year's Super Bowl includes many headlines.  For example, the Packers have one of the most storied franchises in NFL history.  In fact the Super Bowl trophy, the Lombardi trophy, is named after their famous head coach, Vince Lombardi.  In addition, the Steelers also have a franchise full of a rich history.  The Steelers have won the most Super Bowls in the NFL with six Lombardi trophies.  They search for a seventh Super Bowl title this year as well as a 3rd Super Bowl win in only six years.  Overall, the two teams look to be the best teams at this point in the year, as expected.  Super Bowl 45 should be a fantastic game and certainly must see television.
