Panthers owner paying for staff to go to Super Bowl 50

If there is one thing Carolina Panthers loyalists remember about All Pro linebacker Thomas Davis, it’s the fact that he does not really get intimidated by injuries. The Panthers are 1-3 against the Broncos and would be fitting to get a win and the coveted Lombardi Trophy.

Shula was a hot name entering the 2016 off-season coaching search but rumors of him having no interest in interviewing until the Panthers were eliminated hurt his chances.

Preparing for Newton will certainly take the full two weeks, even for the No. 1 defense in the NFL. The game will mark Rivera’s first appearance in the Super Bowl since 2007, when he served as the Bears’ defensive coordinator under coach Lovie Smith. Denver, Colorado. So that means there should be more Broncos fans at the Bowl than Panthers fans.

Manning has some nice options in the passing game and a running game that can be extremely hard to stop at times.

William Hill U.S. projected the Panthers would be favored just 2.5 points entering today’s game, but Carolina easily routed the Arizona Cardinals to enhance its status.

The 1972 Miami Dolphins are the only team to go an entire season unbeaten, finishing 17-0 when the National Football League played a 14-game schedule.

“There’s no question, this is a sweet day, this was a sweet victory”, Manning said.

On the latest episode of Bill Rhoden On Sports, Bill and I wrap up the NFC and AFC Championship games, talk about Cam Newton’s triumphant season and discuss the changing of the guard at quarterback, as it relates to Manning and Newton, but also the position in general. The 2007 Patriots won their first 18 games before losing the Super Bowl to the New York Giants.

In fact, there have been only two one-loss teams to ever play in and win the Super Bowl, and it happened in back-to-back years: the 1984 San Francisco 49ers and the 1985 Bears. “We wanted to start fast”, Newton said.

Broncos DT Vance Walker: He signed a three-year deal with the Chiefs in 2014 but hardly played and was cut after one year. I am not discrediting any players on the Denver defense, but I just feel like Carolina’s defense will have it somewhat easier against Manning than the Denver’s defense will have it with Cam Newton and his teammates on the offensive side of the ball.
