Denver Broncos Beat Carolina Panthers 24-10 to Win Super Bowl

The players say that it’s hard for them to study film of how other defenses played the Panthers. Manning added a two-point conversion pass.

The tactic proved vindicated on the next Carolina drive, which stalled when Miller sacked Newton for the second time in the match. Stymied by Carolina in the red zone, Denver settled for a McManus 34-yard field goal.

Newton settled down in the second quarter, completing a 20-yard pass to Philly Brown and scrambling twice for 23 yards to drive Carolina down the field.

Newton, who threw for 38 touchdowns and ran for 12 in his first 18 games, produced no touchdowns for the first time all season.

It was a disappointing finish for Carolina.

Carolina responded early in the second quarter. The Broncos, who led the league in total defense, harassed and hit star quarterback Cam Newton, diminishing the potency of Carolina’s offense, which led the league in scoring.

This is the Broncos’ third Super Bowl victory and their first since John Elway lead the team to back-to-back Super Bowl wins in 1997 and 1998. “But this is a different team, different year; we just have to go play, man, like we’ve been playing all year”. “They have a great offense, so it’s going to be a tough battle”. He won with a Super Bowl passer rating of 56.6 that, unbelievably, wasn’t that much lower than what he compiled this season.

With the Panthers driving to open the third quarter, Miller broke up a pass deep down the right sideline intended for wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery. They were salty all night, pressuring Newton like he has never been pressured this season. “Not enough evidence to change the call on the field”. In the AFC Championship, Miller once again had 2.5 sacks and an interception, clobbering Tom Brady in the process. It rolled to the goal line, where Malik Jackson pounced on it for a 10-0 lead.

If you aren’t a Panthers or Broncos fan, you were probably jealous Sunday Night.

“We got goal boards in our locker room and we see everything that we’ve done this year”, cornerback Aqib Talib said. Teams that have scored a defensive touchdown in a Super Bowl are 15-2 in those games. Stewart, back in the game, leaped into the end zone from one yard away.

Starting at the Panthers’ 14 after Josh Norwood’s return, three plays gained 9 yards.

While having more success in moving the ball, the Panthers continued to commit errors and handed the Broncos another opportunity when Mike Tolbert’s fumble was recovered by Danny Trevathan, only for Manning to waste good field position after a long Anderson run by throwing an interception to Kony Ealy.

The Panthers had outscored opponents 55-7 in the first half this season in the playoffs entering the game.
