Manning threw for two first-half touchdowns and Denver’s ferocious defense withstood a New England rally in the dying seconds for a 20-18 triumph over the visiting Patriots in the American Football Conference final.
The Panthers dismantled the Arizona Cardinals, 49-15, in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday. This one checks out – Manning was in fact injured for much of the regular season. Even amidst the confetti and celebration dances at Bank of America Stadium, Newton kept his focus on his team’s ultimate goal of winning Super Bowl 50.
“Go ahead. We feed off of that”, Ward said. “I keep saying it: We’re not finished”.

Sunday marked the 17 time Manning and Brady have played one another.
“There were a lot of plays in the game, a lot of big plays”, Belichick added.
That bettor will win $420,000 if the Broncos prevail in two weeks. Now, because I know you’ve been waiting with bated breath, we’re going to take a look at the top five takeaways from NFL Championship Weekend 2016.
Finally, the game wasn’t decided until the Patriots’ two-point conversion attempt failed will 12 seconds left in the game and a subsequent onside kick was recovered by the Broncos with 11 seconds left. Earlier in the day, in the AFC, the Denver Broncos narrowly survived a late-game push from the New England Patriots to emerge with a win.
It’s no secret that Denver has reached the AFC title game largely on the strength of its top-ranked defense.
This should be a great matchup between two teams that deserve to face each other in the game that will determine the league’s ultimate champion.
“He’s a great player, he’s the best”, said Brady. As a result, missed extra points were up significantly this season.
At Charlotte, the Panthers forced seven Arizona turnovers and Newton completed 19 of 28 passes for 335 yards. The Panthers’ moneyline is -180, while the Broncos have +160 betting odds to pull off the upset and win outright.

Last week, Hall of Fame quarterback turned Fox analyst Troy Aikman-who was not only the starter, but in his prime the last time the Cowboys played in a Super Bowl-wondered aloud how things might have been different if head coach Jimmy Johnson had stayed in town after the 1993 season.
