Scoring more points than usual is another piece of advice Montana had for Manning, who won his first Super Bowl in the 2006 season with the Indianapolis Colts but has since lost his last two trips. Denver barely gave Tom Brady any time to thrown the ball in the AFC Championship, recording four sacks and hitting the quarterback 20 times. “And today I hope everybody enjoyed that game”.

It was nearly like Von Miller and the Broncos defense challenged Tom Brady and his quick release to beat them going into Sunday’s AFC title game. Both players are key components to their team’s success.
That’s because the point spread – now Carolina by 4 1/2 in The Post Line, at the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook and many other sports books on the Strip – is expected to go up as the February 7 game nears. “He was big time”.
Manning will be the oldest player at 39 years old to start a Super Bowl at quarterback. Sunday against the Broncos, he completed just 55 percent of those passes (17-for-31).
“Brady had to know who we had on this line, and we knew his line wasn’t very good coming into the game”, linebacker Shaquil Barrett told Klemko. And our fans take this personally, and they should. So, while it’s obvious that he harbors a massive amount of respect for the guy, I can’t imagine Belichick’s all that sad to see one of Archie’s kids walk away. The team was starting to get healthy once again.
The head coach did not have his best season. “And it’s a great honor to be going back to the Super Bowl”. The team turned the ball over seven times. Nobody, including me. He’s thrown for 496 yards and three touchdowns while adding another 50 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in just two wins.
Receivers Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders became the 10th Broncos wide receiver duo to eclipse 1,000 receiving yards in the same season. Even more important than that was the defense, which had the task of stopping one of the most explosive offenses in football.

Kuechly, nicknamed “Captain America” by Cam Newton, had a pretty normal game for his standards, which is nearly unbelievable looking at the numbers. He had one tackle. “I shared it with Peyton”, Belichick said. We already talked about how Victoria Azarenka was excited to hear the team had won the AFC Championship Game after her match at the Australian Open.
