The Green Bay Packers will play in Super Bowl XLV, securing a spot in the championship game after defeating the Chicago Bears 21-14. With only six minutes left in the game, the Packers leaped toward victory with an 18-yard interception return by defensive tackle B.J. Raji, off a pass from the Bears' third-string quarterback Caleb Hanie. The Packers are the first sixth-seeded NFC team to make it to the Super Bowl, where they will face the winner of Sunday’s game between the Jets and Steelers.
