Will it be Peyton Manning riding off into the sunset as a champion the way John Elway did, or will Cam Newton begin his legacy with a ring and one of the best teams ever?

Denver made the Super Bowl two years ago as 2.5-point favorites over the Seattle Seahawks, but they lost 43-8 in one of the most one-sided affairs in the game’s history.
The No side is the big -1500 favourite on the odds of Super Bowl 50 going into overtime, while Orange is the +125 favourite on the odds to be the colour of the liquid poured on the winning coach at the end of the game – followed by Blue at +300 and both Clear and Yellow at +400. If the team is too far away to attempt a field goal, they will kick the ball down the field to the other team and make the distance between the ball and the end zone longer. When watching the game on TV, the first down mark is a yellow line.
The 23-year-old soon found out exactly what that meant: Manning brought a guy to the Broncos’ practice facility and that guy took Taylor’s measurements for a suit – and then boom, Taylor had his first custom suit, which was paid for by Manning. Will Manning ride off into the sunset and announce his retirement in the post-game interview on Sunday?
Standing in their way, though, is simply the best team in the league. “I think that has served me well”.
Allen was ruled out of the NFC Championship game with a broken bone in his foot but has been doing everything possible to get himself ready to play in Super Bowl 50 including laser therapy. “People had their opinions about that, but I don’t know a team that’s great that doesn’t take each and every opportunity that they get to try to get better, and that’s what we did”. “Defensively they and Denver are about even. Carolina has had two pretty impressive wins in the playoffs”.
Reputations will be revered or ruined as the Denver Broncos meet the Carolina Panthers in the NFL’s showpiece. “I have a bad habit of saying, just one more, and one more can turn into 10 more. That’s what wins you a championship”. “We love the Panthers”, said Dee Near. Again Cam had no one open, deciding to tuck the ball and scramble for his most impressive run of the year. I also like the way that whole team is going right now. I could even envision a scenario in which the Panthers lose the big game and Newton is still named MVP because no one else on either squad has a notable performance.

On the other hand, I have no idea if Denver is any good.
That would be the Carolina Panthers. They have a great offensive and defensive line and a great quarterback. “Understanding that, you have to know who you’re playing”.

The Panthers have had good defenses for the last few years under head coach Ron Rivera and defensive coordinator Sean McDermott, who was the Eagles’ defensive coordinator in 2009 and 2010.
