SAINTS & COLTS ADVANCE TO CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES

With a balanced attack by Drew Brees, and a dazzling performance by Reggie Bush, the Saints beat the Cardinals 45-14 to advance to the N.F.C. Championship game. Meanwhile, The Colts showed no signs of rust as they dissected a Ravens team that never got in gear. The 20-3 win sends the Colts to the A.F.C championship game. The Chargers will play the Jets tomorrow, in perhaps the most anticipated playoff game yet.
