Super Bowl 50: Peyton Manning finally explains his ‘last rodeo’ remark

Peyton Manning has about an hour to do this. I know him. And he is a very, very good guy.

And with that, we’re off.

Manning said he has focused on not looking too far ahead or too far in the past, that he is just trying to soak in the atmosphere surrounding his fourth Super Bowl appearance. But it’s clear Manning doesn’t want to allow this to become a valedictory, and the assembled media has less than an hour to try.

The recording of Manning and Belichick’s post-game conversation. A win Sunday would give Manning his second Super Bowl ring, his 200th career win, and he’d become the first starting quarterback to win a championship with two different teams. “Like I told him, the last playoff game against New England and one thing I do share with this city is a lack of affection for New England through the years, but [I] just had a knot in my stomach”.

“I haven’t made my mind up and I don’t see myself knowing that until after the season”, Manning said later.

“I’m thrilled. I really couldn’t be more excited, at the risk of being corny”, Christensen said.

While Tuck has enjoyed plenty of success against Brady, and he told the Dan Patrick Show on Tuesday that he has the “utmost respect” for the Patriots signal-caller due to his toughness.

After the game, a report quoted a Broncos player as saying he tried to rub his junk on Brady while laying on the quarterback. “I think obviously he’s one of the best to ever do it. But more than that, man, that whole “tough” label is warranted for sure”. I honestly think that having a little time off to heal my foot maybe helped some other parts.
