“There’s a lot to be said for what we were able to accomplish and where we got ourselves this year”.
Panthers: The Carolina Panthers got to the Super Bowl after destroying the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC championship game. When fans say that the Rams have an elite defense, watch the Broncos and then tell me the Rams have an elite defense. Stewart picked off Tom Brady and served as the Broncos enforcer over the middle, laying huge hits to the Patriots receivers if they dared to cross into his zone.
