description

On a classic January day in Chicago with nasty weather, Bears running back Thomas Jones took this handoff to the right, but found there was no room so immediately cut it back left, following a blocker outside and darting into the end zone for a 15-yard score. The touchdown all but guaranteed a Bears victory in this NFC Championship Game matchup, extending their late lead to 25 points. Jones tallied 123 yards and two scores on the ground in this one, helping the Bears to a 39-14 win over the Saints on Jan. 21, 2007, booking their ticket to the Super Bowl.
