MIAMI - The New Orleans Saints stymied Peyton Manning, then intercepted him to seal the Super Bowl, rallying to beat the Indianapolis Colts 31-17 Sunday night.
Tracy Porter intercepted a pass from Manning and sprinted 74 yards for a touchdown and a 31-17 lead with 3:12 left. Playing in the Super Bowl for the first time, the Saints went on a 31-7 run after falling behind 10-0 early.
MVP Drew Brees went 32-for-39 for 288 yards for the Saints, tying Tom Brady's Super Bowl record for completions.
Brees went 7-for-7 on the drive that put New Orleans ahead to stay, with the score coming on a two-yard touchdown pass to Jeremy Shockey.
Manning's interception was the game's lone turnover, and he was rolled to the turf trying in vain to tackle Porter.
