The Super Bowl attracts billions of dollars in gambling, with gamblers wagering on everything from which team will win the game to whether quarterback Peyton Manning will announce his retirement pre- or post-game to the number of towels Cam Newton will wear on his body during the game.
‘My role is to be the best Greg Olsen that I can, ‘ said Kasa, who went to high school in Broomfield, Colorado, and played at the University of Colorado.
After Carolina routed Arizona in the NFC championship game, Brown tweeted, “Can’t wait to match up against my college roommate/best friend in the bowl @BradRoby_1”.
The five-time league MVP will be playing in his fourth Super Bowl when the Denver Broncos meet the Panthers on February 7 in Santa Clara, California. In the title game he threw for 335 yards and rushed for 47.

His players praised the decision, especially Miller and Harris, who were awaiting ACL surgeries last time and didn’t fly out until the families and staff members traveled late in Super Bowl week. “Yeah, I take a lot with me on what Mike taught me and how he prepared this team for these types of situations”.
Brown made the Panthers previous year after going undrafted.
“He’s been in one as a player, as an assistant coach, and now as a head coach”, said Carolina linebacker Luke Kuechly, who has 19 tackles and two interceptions for touchdowns in the postseason.
“I knew if he got his chance, he would do his thing”, Roby said. “And with my son, when he plays on the field, in his uniform, he has that same hope!”
“Super unique”, Talib said.
