Because the New England Patriots and Tom Brady lost Sunday’s AFC title game to the Broncos, Ch. 5 sports director Dennis O’Donnell told Montana he won’t have to be asked the coming days whether he’s better than Brady, who won his fourth ring a year ago in his sixth Super Bowl appearance. Failing to pressure Brady was one of Kansas City’s downfalls in the divisional round. “They’ve got some great pass rushers, they’ve got interior pass rushers, they’ve got some outside rushers”.

The Super Bowl winners each get $102,000 and the losing team’s individual share is $51,000.
I see no situation in which Peyton Manning could keep up with the points that the Panthers will score.
Their number of opportunities in the red zone in the fourth quarter led many to wonder whether Belichick would have been better off taking field goals – or at least one field goal – instead of lining up Brady behind center on fourth down.
“He’s a little different”, Kubiak said of Newton, cracking a smile at the understatement.
“I want to win it every year. That’s what he did”. In the regular season, Carolina was one win away from going undefeated, beating five of their last eight opponents by 17 points or more.
But Belichick was one of the proponents for moving the point-after from the 2-yard line to the 15. (Brady threw the ball) up. “TV copy. Check the TV copy”. “I was the guy Tom picked to throw the ball to, and I was able to get my hand on it”. That’s all the quarterback’s former head coach, Tony Dungy, needed to know. “I didn’t think I held him”.
The Denver Broncos can beat the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50. Denver, of course, have made a habit of going to Super Bowls, reaching it for a record-tying eighth time. Gostkowski defended his teammate, blaming the loss on the entire team.
Will Super Bowl 50 be it for Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning? The real fun statistic is that Manning has a 3-1 record against Brady in AFC Championship games, 2-0 as a Bronco. (Overall, the Panthers forced seven turnovers on the day.) And as heralded as Denver’s defense has been this season, Carolina’s isn’t far behind: The Panthers ranked second this season, according to ESPN’s defensive efficiency metric, which measures a team’s per-play contribution to its scoring margin; only the Broncos finished ahead of them. The network said Monday that trails only the 54.9 million for the 2011 Steelers-Jets matchup, which was played in a later time slot.

“I know he appears to be healthy, but what I saw in the lack of strength were really his throws to the sideline, more so on go routes down the sideline”, Montana said.
