Peyton ManningThough the New Orleans Saints were likely disappointed after having to punt in their first two possessions, they did win a small battle when downing Thomas Morstead's second punt on the Indianapolis 4. But it turned out, all that did was help pad the Colts' offensive statistics.

After the punt, Peyton Manning led his offense on a 96-yard drive, concluding with a 19-yard touchdown strike to Pierre Garcon. The 96-yard touchdown drive tied the Chicago Bears long-standing Super Bowl record -- they completed the same feat in Super Bowl XX against the New England Patriots.

The drive wasn't all Manning, as Joseph Addai ran the ball three times for a whopping 53 yards while Donald Brown added eight yards on a pair of carries.
