1. QB's and Turnovers: Expect plenty of turnovers. Manning's thumb is in question and hasn't performed up to par recently. On the other side, who hasn't heard about Grossman's inconsistency?
Advantage: Neither - Both QBs and teams will make an equal amount of mistakes.
2. Defense: Both teams have Defenses that have shown up for the playoffs. The Colts can get to/pressure the QB and their secondary is very opportunistic, but everyone has heard about, and seen how, the Colts defend the run. The Bears have a great front 7, but can be exposed in the secondary.
Advantage: Colts - they're allowing rushing yards but not big plays in the passing game, which is the way the Tampa 2 Defense is designed.
3. Offense: These offenses are on opposite sides of the spectrum. The Bears are mostly a conservative running team and can occasionally throw for a big gain. The Colts excel at passing with Manning and Co. and they have proven they can wear down and score on tough defenses (Baltimore and New England).
Advantage: Colts - Confidence in their offense and a more balanced attack
4. Special Teams: A very one-sided portion of the game. Bears have Devin Hester returning punts and kicks. He hasn't returned one yet in the playoffs, but expect one in the Super Bowl. The Colts special teams are hit-or-miss with their tackles and could easily allow a huge return. Vinatieri is an obvious plus for the Colts and could be worth every dollar come clutch-time (Maybe a game-winning field goal...).
Advantage: Bears - Which would you prefer: 7 points on a kick-off/punt return or 3 points on a FG?
And that is my in-depth analysis-opinion for Super Bowl XLI.

To properly correct you. Lovie Smith was the Defensive cordinator when the tampa 2 deense was created. therefore he should know it's weaknesses, all you really have to do is run the ball and let your recivers ge behind the LB's and in front of the Secondary.
there is your anwser.
Stop. Breathe. Relax. QUIT STATING STUFF THAT YOU DON'T KNOW TO BE TRUE.
