Super Bowl 2016: Broncos lead Panthers 16-7 in third quarter

After an eerily accurate prediction last year, the Madden simulation’s prediction didn’t get it right this year. Super Bowl 50 is finally here. Cam Newton (CAR): The Panthers star quarterback. He got the nickname “Riverboat Ron” because he likes to go for it on fourth down a lot.

Despite the hype, the game started on a miscue from Manning that soared the ball into their own end zone for a safety, giving the Seahawks an almost-immediate 2-0 advantage. The only other quarterback to win a Super Bowl at the same age was John Elway, who is now the general manager of the Broncos and former quarterback of the franchise. “He’s a special talent, rare talent. They made more plays than us, and that’s what it came down to”, Newton said. “He has his friends and his family and they’ll say what they need to say to him, …”

Trailing 16-7, the Panthers appeared to be going in for a score before another turnover cost them.

Newton completed 18 of 41 passes for 265 yards, with an interception and two fumbles.

“This game was much like the season has been”, Manning said. Players wanted Ware to talk again after that and Kubiak, as he has all season, leaned on his two most prominent players to come through again. Newton scrambled twice for 23 yards and went 4-of-4 on the drive that resulted in Jonathan Stewart’s dive across the end from 1-yard for a touchdown.

The Canadian actor said he’s a fan of both the Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos.

Only this time, he will have an all-time great defense to thank for it.

There is no getting around just how bad the offensive tackles for the Denver Broncos have been. The injury to Manning opened the door for Osweiler, but despite beating the Patriots in the regular season, it was Manning who was the starting quarterback for the Broncos in the playoffs.

In the second quarter, the Broncos wide receiver returned a Brad Nortman punt a whopping 61 yards – the longest punt return in Super Bowl history.

The Broncos scored early and never trailed as they held the league’s highest-scoring offence in check en route to capturing their first Super Bowl title in 17 years.

“It’s cool to be a part of the festivities in the new world that I’m participating in now”, said Hunt, who’s nominated for two Grammy Awards at next week’s ceremony.
