Hey there. This is my first review in a while so I will probably seek a second opinion on the verdict. I'll try to take my time though so it will take a couple of days.

Quick Fail Criteria
Nothing glaring, so I'll move on.

Full Review
GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria 1. Is it reasonably well written?
 * A. Prose quality:
 * No issues, article is quite well written.
 * B. MoS compliance:
 * Looks good, particularly all refs outside punctiation. The redlinks all seem acceptable, but if over time the articles are not created I encourage their removal.

2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
 * A. References to sources:
 * Looks good. Lots of sources.
 * B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
 * Just a minor little thing here: The lead is fairly long, but I guess it's OK. However, any chance you could get a citation in there somewhere? Like how about one where it says "the game kicked off at 8:39 p.m.". Otherwise very thickly sourced where possible.
 * Has been explained. OK now.
 * C. No original research:
 * Seems like most of the article is quite well referenced. Nice!

3. Is it broad in its coverage?
 * A. Major aspects:
 * Like the coaching changes info and the Team Selection part.
 * B. Focused:
 * Good to go.

4. Is it neutral?
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * No bias.

5. Is it stable?
 * No edit wars, etc:
 * Pretty much one editor doing most of the work so this isn't an issue.

6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
 * A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
 * The logo is tagged appropriately.
 * B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
 * This kinda stands out to me. I know it is not easy to get free images, but this topic should have some out there. Could you maybe get an image in the prose somewhere? There are no images except for the logo in the infobox.
 * This has been taken care of. Great job. The pictures really make the article now I think. It really looks great.


 * Overall:
 * Pass or Fail:
 * I've temporarily placed this one on hold to get a few minor things fixed which I will outline below. I will try to handle some of them myself. MobileSnail 05:13, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I will promote the article now. Great work! MobileSnail 20:13, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Necessary fixes

 * The article is definitely lacking in pictures. For as long as the article is, it would be nice if you could fit a shot of the game in somewhere there if availible. I think a picture of Andrew Luck, as he was the game's MVP, may be appropriate as well, so I will do that.
 * ✅ This has been done via Flickr. Thanks! MobileSnail 20:10, 6 April 2011 (UTC)


 * A reference somewhere in the lead section would be useful where relevant.
 * ✅ This has been clarified, and now is good to go. <b style="color:brown;">Mobile</b><b style="color:blue;">Snail</b> 20:10, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
