The Panthers will look to avenge last year’s Super Bowl loss to the Denver Broncos when the two sides kick off the 2016-17 National Football League season at Sports Authority Field at Mile High in Denver in what should be a very raucous crowd. Sports junkies will no doubt delight in once again seeing Panthers quarterback Cam Newton’s on field antics, but above all they’ll be itching to see a rematch between the Carolina and Denver teams, who squared off for Super Bowl 50, where the Broncos triumphed.

The Broncos meanwhile are still expected to do some damage in the AFC West this season despite some significant losses on both sides of the ball as Peyton Manning retired, and both Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan left via free agency and while the bulk of the Denver defense is back there are some question marks on offense. He embarked on a six-month jet-setting junket of television and dance studios. He made him the butt of his jokes on SNL and trolled him on Instagram, photo-shopping himself knocking another ball out of Newtons hands when the QB posted a picture of himself playing with the USA water polo team.
Newton insisted he took no offense and called Miller “one of the great players in this National Football League”.
As of today, there are two ways to watch the Panthers vs the Broncos game online.

Special teams: It’s flying under the national radar, but the Broncos will be starting three new specialists in Week 1 with rookie punter Riley Dixon, kickoff-returner Cody Latimer and long-snapper Casey Kreiter. But Rivera has staunchly defended Remmers, saying the criticism is absurd and declaring, “I have absolute confidence in Mike Remmers”. With Norman shadowing Thomas in the Super Bowl, Sanders led all Super Bowl 50 pass-catchers with 83 yards on six receptions and eight targets. His dogged determination to have a bounce-back year was on full display this summer. It earned the soft-spoken Thomas offensive captain honors. They will be facing a Panthers passing game which gets back the services of 6-foot-5, 240-pound wideout Kelvin Benjamin, who missed last season due to a preseason ACL tear. We did that already.
