What They’re Saying: Panthers look to disguise intent against Manning
According to Forbes, the Broncos’ value has surged from $78 million in 1984, when its current owner Patrick Bowlen acquired it, to almost $2 billion today.
HNGN is breaking down Super Bowl 50, and why the Carolina Panthers offense is the difference maker. “I hope he can win, but [his] impact has already been made, and his legacy should not be affected by this one game”. Unfortunately for Manning, it happens to be an all-pro cornerback who badly wants to leave the Super Bowl with a souvenir.
“I’m an African-American quarterback that scares people because they haven’t seen nothing that they can compare me to”, said the 1.96 meter, 111-kilogram Newton. “So, it sure has been a pleasure”.
There have been plenty of signals the older Manning brother will walk away from the game after this final shot at a title, the most glaring of which came Sunday when he told New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick in a post-game exchange this could be his “last rodeo”.
At least that’s what the bookies and numerous early gamblers seem to think, with ESPN reporting Carolina has been installed as clear-cut favorites for the February 7 matchup at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. and much of the betting money thus far has been put on the Panthers.
Peyton Manning has a big fan on the Carolina Panthers. “Those don’t exist anymore”.
Aikman, who dealt with concussions in his playing career and retired after the 2000 season, said he sees a big change in how the league handles the issue now. Peyton was on the losing end to New Orleans in 2010 with the Colts and routed by Seattle with Denver two years ago. “He hasn’t said anything, so I don’t really know what he’s going to do”.
“That kind of has become a theme for us”, coach Gary Kubiak said after Denver’s 23-17 win over Pittsburgh in the divisional round, “to grind and work and just keep ourselves in position to be successful”.
He dropped his phone and cracked the screen – that’s another story – but when he finally restored his service, he learned the Broncos wanted to sign him to the practice squad to help them get ready for the Super Bowl against Carolina. “I’m rooting for him, but shoot, I want that ring. We were done in November, it was over”, Manning said. On the sideline, Manning never takes his eyes away from printouts and looks like he’s constantly cramming for the SATs. “If you can be in a lot of those games and win those games, it certainly gives you confidence and, hey, it’s playoff football”. I try to remind them, that’s not the norm.
