Denver (+6) at Carolina (2-7-16)

[geordiecolt]

I really hope Peyton doesn't come back, hes been the best and he should definitely leave it at that

[buffalo34]

Also, Patriots fans going "AT LEAST PEYTON DID NOTHING"

 

But according to them Tom Brady and his 130 yards in SB36 was the sole reason they won that game...

[krunk]

Whatever happened to "Were going to Disney World". They used to always say that after the Super Bowl when i was growing up during the Montana and Rice days.

Carolina's never going to win a championship. They lack heart. Got smacked in the face and basically gave up on the game. 

I thought Cam reverted back to the tempermental  guy he was 2 or 3 years ago..

..when the going got tough...he seemed to pout.

 

...I think that's going to be talked about a lot in the days to come

This is the first time in his career that Peyton played with a team like those Patriots teams. 

[nburgmei]

I still can't figure out why he backed off on that fumble. It looked like he might have had first shot at it, but he stepped away.

Oh Cam...

 

Another tantrum thrower. Which is a shame, because he's a very good QB.

[oldunclemark]

 Amazing..Denver was all in..it was Super Bowl or bust.

they didnt 'build a team the right way'  ..they bought what they needed

 

[Moose Of Woe]

All I know is....

 

"THIS ONE'S....FOR PEYTON!"

 

I've said all year Denver will go as far as that D can take them, because the offense is dreadful outside of Sanders. Apparently that's all the way to the Lombardi! That's an amazing feat for that team...most notably the entire defense.

 

Defense.

Wins.

Championships. Or at least they're the biggest contributer most of the time.

[Gavin]

Wow. How quick this turned to a celebratory occassion for Peyon on the forum to cutting Cam down.....All because he went up against one of the best defenses in the league. He had a bad game, It happens.

He is over rated anyway.... he shouldn't have won OPOY either, MVP imudnerstand, but OPOY? Those AP writers were drunk.

That shocked me..because he doesnt shy away from physical contact

[Gramz]

I just feel a sense of peace right now, and it feels good.

Nothing that hasn't been already said, His legacy was already cemented. Now he is just adding on

[jvan1973]

Not even close to the over under.   But it's my second favorite superbowl ever.  That defense was among the best to ever play in that game.    I love peyton manning.    I'm so happy for him

But in such a circumstance, do you really think the Broncos would block him from retiring as a Colt?

i think they would.  elway doesn't care about irsay or colts fans

 

he might entertain the thought as a favor to peyton, but i doubt he would take action to make him a colt again

[oldunclemark]

    He won his final game in the Super Bowl...just like John Elway...who convinced him  to come to Denver.

   It is all so improbable and yet, it just happened

I was totally wrong on how the game would go...

I thought Carolina would score at least 3 TDs

Yes. I have to tip my hat to you and so many positive posters out here who kept cheering for Peyton despite all the negativity around him. I am happy for him as well.

Congratulations, 2 Time Super Bowl Champion, Peyton Manning! 

 

Congratulations, BroncosNation & Super Bowl MVP, Von Miller!

 

One word : DEFENSE! 

 

Now, it's our turn Indianapolis. Let's go get that elusive great defense to go with Andrew Luck!

[nburgmei]

This is another example of what high-powered defenses can do to high-powered offenses in the SB. The Giants did it to the Pats, the Seahawks to the Broncos, and now the Broncos to the Panthers.

[Moose Of Woe]

I knew CAR had a good defense. I knew DEN had a GREAT defense and could make it a game, but I didn't think DEN would dominate CAR's offense for 4 quarters. They did the same thing against NE, too.

 

CAR is the more balanced team. Good offense, good defense. I thought they'd win.   The more you think about it, DEN's offense is so bad it doesn't really matter how good the other's team defense is because DEN's O makes opposing D's look like the 85 Bears every week. It's all on Denver's defense. Pretty damn amazing what they did this season. Carried that team HARD for 19 games. (Aside from the GB one where the offense did something.)

No it didn't. You just wish it did. 

Even if it did, why is that improbable?

What makes you think it is his final game? After a month and some doctor checkups, I think if Elway says come on back and we will keep this team together, he would do it. Who is going to beat them in the AFC? I think he will play one more year just to show that he is not done when injury free. His all pro left tackle is going to be back too.

I like your wishful thinking, but keeping Pagano and his  "monster" isn't the best start. At this point I'd be grateful for an O-line that doesn't get Luck early retirement.

I love your spirit L & L....I want Peyton to keep playing

..but it wont be in Denver.....they have to sign Brock or Peyton...there;s no money for both

[Moose Of Woe]

With that defense even if Ware goes, DEN can repeat with any game manager under center.

 

The defense will be close to as good next year if not the same. DEN's offense can only improve, because they're abysmal.

 

I'd start by cutting Droparyius Thomas. All that money vanishes in big games.

[oldunclemark]

     I think the Peyton to LA thing is not far fetched....but his contract wont allow Denver to keep him

That wasn't a tantrum. He was just responding to a bad break on the field. Don't try to make something out of nothing.

You missed the crying to the ref for a "personal foul" near the end of the game that wasn't a personal foul.

 

Neither was the one where he ran and got blasted, but was given a 15 yard gift for a "late hit" BEFORE HIS KNEE WAS DOWN.

DT was dominated by Norman, wasn't he?

the Patriots "kill everyone tour" ends with Manning riding off into the sunset with a Super Bowl

Out of curiosity, how good is Osweiler anyways ?

Pretty sure, yeah. He was open a few times and dropped 'em scared of the incoming hit, too.
