Panthers’ Davis vows to play in Super Bowl despite broken arm

It was certainly the most unexpected.

Benjamin said he spoke with Newton shortly after the injury. These Cardinals fielded the most talented roster Palmer’s ever played with, but this was all new to him: it was the first road playoff game of his career. Then defense saved the day. The Cardinals (14-4) finished with seven turnovers as a team, tied for the sixth-most in a playoff game during the Super Bowl era. But Kimo von Oelhoffen hit Palmer low after the pass, and he suffered a serious knee injury.

New England’s Stephen Gostkowski pushed an extra point to the right in the first quarter of the Patriots’ 20-18 loss at Denver – his first miss in 524 tries….

Davis said after the game Sunday he planned to play in the Super Bowl. “When we’re playing, we’re as good as it gets”. Palmer would subsequently fumble again on a sack by DE Charles Johnson. The Broncos recovered the onside kick, and the celebration began.

Tickets for Super Bowl 50 have sold between $1,222 to $27,983. He’s leaving behind his camera. It’s the Super Bowl and their guards are going to come out.

After the Carolina Panthers were done crushing the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC title game, Cam Newton was asked something about reaching the Super Bowl and all the work it took to get this far. “We’re trying to finish this thing off”.

The AFC championship game had been billed as a clash of the titans, the renewal of a rivalry between the Broncos’ Peyton Manning and the Patriots’ Tom Brady.

“We’re not done yet”, Newton said during the NFC championship trophy celebration on the field Sunday. “We going to do we what we do, so y’all pick who you all like and it is what it is”.

On the next play, Newton ran a powerhouse sweep escorted into the end zone by two running backs for a 12-yard touchdown.

Newton threw a long touchdown pass on third down in the first quarter and scored on a 1-yard dive over the pile in the second as the Panthers powered to a 24-7 halftime lead. The Panthers are the early four-point favorite.

“Looking at the team that’s coming back versus where we were this time a year ago, very few holes to fill”, head coach Bruce Arians said. “Our pen has a lot more ink left”. Manning, a five-time league MVP, will play in his fourth Super Bowl and Denver in a record-tying eighth.

“The summer home of the Carolina Panthers, Spartanburg, South Carolina, could not be happier”, said Chris Jennings of the Spartanburg Convention and Visitors Bureau. But while adoration can be a vague term, I don’t think Newton is adored as other elite quarterbacks, either, judging by whether people have invested in buying his jersey and wearing it. His 32-yard punt return set up his darting, weaving 22-yard TD run. Newton, for his part, converted those opportunities into four touchdowns – two through the air and two rushing scores.

“Yes, it was personal”, Ginn said.
