The Denver Broncos have a terrifying defence. Carolina’s Ron Rivera has led the Panthers to three straight division titles and is one loss from a flawless season. The Broncos will then need to get to him before Newton uses his improvisational skills to hurt them.

Two years ago, the Broncos had the NFL’s top offense but crashed and burned in Super Bowl XLVIII when they faced the Seahawks’ No. 1 defense.
The Packers were the last Super Bowl favorite to either cover the spread or win straight up.
As for the game itself, the contest features the NFL’s best defense, in the form of the Broncos, going up against the league’s most prolific offense, led by Panthers quarterback Cam Newton.
The Carolina Panthers will have to continue with their first half domination.
Two great defences will take the field at Santa Clara, but, for all of Peyton Manning’s past heroics, one great offence stands alone. Manning ended the day with a Super Bowl-record 34 completions, but Denver lost by five touchdowns.
If this was the final game of his magnificent career, what a Super way to go out for Peyton Manning. The Broncos will be an inspired football team.
“It doesn’t happen for just anybody”, said Denver coach Gary Kubiak, Elway’s longtime backup.
In the last few years, most of the Super Bowls have been decided by less than Sunday’s betting line.
When it comes to Super Bowl 50, Mayor John Tory is cheering for the old guy.
In regards to the experts at ESPN, the 13-person panel is favoring the Panthers to claim their first Super Bowl victory with an 8-5 margin among the experts who make weekly picks.
It is rare that a team heads into a Super Bowl with the bookies giving one team such an advantage as the six points spread handed to the Carolina Panthers.
Peyton Manning is widely regarded as one of the most dominant players at the quarterback position in the history of the NFL. But after fully participating in all three of the team’s practices this week, it’s unlikely that Marshall will miss the Super Bowl. “That and understanding what the team is about and putting the team first when I was young watching him coach”. The Panthers won their finale against Tampa Bay to finish a league-best 15-1, then beat Seattle and Arizona in the playoffs.

Speaking of rap icons, Snoop Dogg interviewed some Panthers and said he approves of Cam Newton’s touchdown dances. “He’s one of the best to have ever done it, a future Hall of Famer, and he has done so much for me. We’re going to go out and do our jobs”. “It’s time to get some rest and get ready to go”. Lets get back to what should be a classic matchup. Newton can break your back running the ball, and we’ve seen Ted Ginn emerge as a multi-faceted game breaker as well. “I know there are certain things that people worry about, but there are some things that are out of your hands”. “They have a great offense, so it’s going to be a tough battle”.
