Panthers open as favorites over Broncos in Super Bowl
The Broncos, who have been to the Super Bowl seven other times with two wins, are 0-4 in the Super Bowl when they wear the orange jerseys. He said he got the tattoo because he was so hopeful for a Super Bowl win for his team and thought this was the year that it would happen.
“We came out here and fought our tails off, and we did what a lot of people said we couldn’t do”, Newton said.
It’s hardly shocking to call 2015’s MVP of the NFL (as voted by the Pro Football Writers of America) “probably the most risky quarterback in the NFL right now”, as cornerback Aqib Talib said on Monday.
Love him or hate him, Cam Newton had a pretty cool tribute to his Panther teammates before the NFC Championship.
The Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos will square off in Super Bowl 50.
Earlier, Denver and veteran quarterback Peyton Manning edged last year’s champion New England Patriots and their signal caller Tom Brady 20-18 for the AFC title.
The score in the NFC championship game was 34-15, and, given the Panthers’ inability to put away opponents after taking big leads, the concern was justified. The Carolina Panthers, who made it to Super Bowl wearing all white, will wear black jerseys when they face the Denver Broncos for the Lombardi Trophy. They wore all white in their postseason wins over the Seahawks and Cardinals. We don’t really pay too much attention to it. We’ve got to still go out on Super Bowl Sunday and we’ve still got to play that game. They aren’t going to necessarily wow you with playmakers on offense.
“I was not a believer (in the Panthers) at first”, said Nick Bogdanovich, the William Hill US Director of Trading.
“Do what you’ve done, ” Rivera said. Some of my experiences in coaching, you get to certain situations like the playoffs, sometimes there’s a little bit of – I won’t say panic, but a little self doubt. Am I doing enough? Do I need to do more? Should I change this?
“I told our coordinators this morning that we’re going to stick to what got us to where we are, and we’ll emphasize that to our players”.
