Saints end 43-year wait for a title...so can they now defend it?

The New Orleans Saints have been crowned Super Bowl champions for the first time after a thrilling 31-17 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. The Saints were down 10-0 early on in proceedings and then trailed 17-16 going into the final quarter of an enthralling game in Miami. However quarterback Drew Brees hit tight end Jeremy Shockey for a two-yard touchdown before Tracy Porter's interception of Peyton Manning made sure of the win in the final few minutes. So where does Super Bowl XLIV rank on your list of all-time great games? Can the Saints do it again next year having waited 43 years for an NFL title? And what about Manning, who is now 9-9 in the play-offs. Does he need to win another Super Bowl to cement his legacy as one of the greatest?
