“I’ve been on record to say I’m a sore loser”, Newton said.

The sentimental crowd favorite was Manning, who at age 39 became the oldest quarterback to win a Super Bowl and who many observers believe will retire on top of the football world.
Rivera suggested in the future Newton may need more time before addressing the media to get his emotions in check. “It was a matter of him channeling all of his talents in the right way and I think you saw him do that this year”.
He continued: “This is a great league with or without me. I am my own person”. “I think he had to rush out to do a Life Alert commercial”, Miller said.
“I was just focused on whether they were going for two, and knew the defense had to step up and make some stops.
That’s where I want to be at right now”. I’m not that guy. “I want players who hate to lose”. I don’t think anybody that played in this game was happy about what happened.
Fowler, a hero of the Spartans’ 24-20 Rose Bowl win over Stanford in the 100th Rose Bowl on January 1, 2014, also tweeted that Manning had asked him for the football.
“We will be back, and I mean that”.
“If anyone wants to question Newton putting his body on the line, they obviously haven’t watched… and that narrative is comical”, Olsen said. “We didn’t lose that game because of that fumble”.
In his four previous seasons, Newton has declined talking to the media in exit interviews.
“Important thing is, it’s going to be his decision”, Elway said. “We all handle defeat differently and it’s hard, so understand that everybody reacts differently”. After losing the biggest game of his career, he remained that way – and took a heap of criticism.

Denver Broncos general manager John Elway says Peyton Manning will be given as much time as he wants to decide whether he wants to continue playing in the NFL. “We had an unbelievable season and we did what a lot of people didn’t expect us to do”, he said.
