“We let them talk all week”, said Broncos safety T.J. Ward as reported by Renck.
Newton quipped in reply: “Why can’t LeBron James be the Cam Newton of power forwards?”
“I’m going to say this – and he wouldn’t want me to say this”, Elway said from a stage during the postgame celebration, “This one’s for Pat!”
“We got outplayed”, he said, frowning and shaking his head, at times looking exhausted and thoroughly disappointed, during a post-game press conference.
“I said ‘you know you’re a phenomenal player, but you have to stay consistent through all the distractions, ‘” Ware said.
Although he isn’t required to answer questions, many viewers had a problem with his overall demeanor, saying he acted unprofessionally and unsportsmanlike during the interview. “But I’ve been in that situation before on both sides, so it’s hard”.
After the game, Newton didn’t shed much light on the play. The former Colts coach – now a Hall of Fame coach – thought he would retire following the Colts’ Super Bowl XLI win over the Chicago Bears and ride off into the sunset. “They got a couple of big plays, but…” Giving insight into his team’s strategy against the Carolina team, Harris said: “Load the box, force y’all to throw the ball”.
You start to wonder if these people actually watch football.
The Broncos won despite Manning’s below average play, throwing for 141 yards and one interception.
Broncos linebacker Von Miller, who was named the game’s MVP, had six tackles (including 2.5 sacks), two forced fumbles (one was returned for a touchdown and the other resulted in a TD), as reported by Gary Klein at LATimes.com.
“I’ll say a little prayer to thank the man upstairs for this great opportunity”.
Whether a given Super Bowl-winning player goes to Disneyland, located in Anaheim, Calif., or Disney World, in Orlando, depends on the location of the championship game. Just because he’s been through a lot, he’s going to be 40 years old (in March). “We will look to get at this again next year”.
