Super Bowl 50’s Quarterbacks: So Talented And So Different
“That’s the greatness in it. Stop trying to make him be like everybody else”. “No matter if it was me, Philly, Funchess… whoever you want to name…”
He said: “A lot of things that Peyton has done, and still is doing, I wish I could mimic – but I can’t do it like Peyton can”. Denver’s outstanding defense clobbered Tom Brady in the AFC Championship Game and has both the pass rush and secondary to challenge Carolina.
By accomplishing a few things that he is absolutely capable of, Newton can ensure that the Panthers take home their first Lombardi Trophy.
I’ve said numerous times that I prayed to have a stage that people will listen.
“I would go right at his knees”. “Every team in America would like to have somebody who is big and strong and can run like him”. He didn’t need to point out that several other black quarterbacks have led their teams to the big game: Doug Williams, Steve McNair, Donovan McNabb, Colin Kaepernick, and Seattle’s Russell Wilson the past two years. “He wants to be in a place where he’s wanted”. Yet the people giving these answers never say they actually dislike him, they just say that’s why other people do.
Heading into this season, wide receiver was supposed to be a huge problem for the Panthers.

Backed by a team that wholeheartedly supported him, Oher felt he had a foundation to flourish. He had 10 touchdown catches this season, more than the 2007 first-round pick had in his past seven seasons combined.
“I’ve always been a hard worker”.
“It was tough coming from the environment I grew up in”, said Oher. “You have to look yourself in the mirror”.
‘Then you’re here in the Super Bowl, it just shows you can do anything you want to do, anything you can put your mind to.
The biggest news leading up to the Super Bowl hasn’t even been the game itself.
“That’s how it goes in the National Football League if you’re not one of the big guys, one of the headline guys” said Tight End Ed Dickson, who won a Super Bowl ring with the Baltimore Ravens. “Football is what got me here and the movie, it wasn’t me”. I would try to hurt him.
“But I just want to become relatable, you know what I’m saying?”
Standing in the midst of the insane scene that is Super Bowl Opening Night, Oher shuffled his feet, smiled and spoke with softness that could barely be heard above the Super Bowl buzz. You’ve got to just get it done yourself’.
