Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning headed to Disneyland in California on Monday to celebrate the Broncos’ win in Super Bowl 50.

Newton on Tuesday did not back down from his postgame behavior, which many people perceived as him being a sore loser.

Newton also said that a person who likes to lose is a loser. That’s what happens. As far as trying to be like this person, trying to be like that person… the truth of the matter is I’m not trying to be like this person. “I can tell you that”, he said. I say that with so much emphasis. “I think he had to rush out to do a Life Alert commercial”, Miller said.

The sentimental crowd favourite 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. “Quite honestly if he is going to take it hard, as a public service, we should avoid having him talk right away”. “I want players who hate to lose”. I’m assuming everyone associated with the Panthers was not that happy with the way Super Bowl 50 turned out.

“This is a very special group of young men that came together and I hope that we can carry that forward into the 2016 season and everybody remain focused on what the task is”, Coach Rivera said.

When Von Miller stripped Cam Newton late in the 4th quarter of a 1-score Super Bowl game, this is what things looked like. I think the important thing is is it’s going to be his decisions, and so where we get a chance to sit down and talk to him, and that why it’s up to Peyton to see that process. I said it since day one. The Broncos would recover that fumble and score another touchdown to seal the game. In his first extensive comments since the loss, Newton gave an explanation of one of the most talked-about plays of the game.
