In 32 years as owner, Bowlen’s Broncos have made it to the postseason 18 times. The Broncos went for 2 after the touchdown, and Peyton Manning completed a pass to give Denver a 24-10 lead, setting the final score of the game.

Denver’s aggressive and wildly effective green-dog blitzing held the league’s highest-scoring team to 10 points and the Panthers committed a season-high of four turnovers.
Miller told the hundreds of thousands who came out to celebrate he’ll see them a year from now.
Most people at a Super Bowl party are there for more of the party and not for the game.
Thanks to a stiff defense, the Broncos were able to upset the Panthers in Super Bowl 50.
Money, of course, played a massive role in Ware and Talib deciding to wear orange, but so did Manning. We looked forward, with superstars like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees at the end of their careers.
“As you know, our goal is always to be competitive year-in and year-out, and that’s what we want to do”, Elway said”.
Elway is mapping out plans to keep his team intact for a run at another title no matter who’s under center. He won Super Bowl MVP for spending the entire game harassing Cam Newton.
Elway also has big decisions to make on free agents Brock Osweiler, Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan, among others. Mike Klis of 9News in Denver reports that the team is “negotiating in earnest” with the player who scored the first touchdown of their Super Bowl victory. “I don’t want to have to take time out of my day to answer questions about what Cam might have said, or done, nor do I want the team to have to do so”.
On the various radio shows I’ve been a part of over the last two years, I’ve called Jackson the unsung hero of Denver’s defensive front.
Elway reiterated that he has no timetable for Manning to make up his mind about his future. Asked by the host if Manning had retired, he responded, “I think he had to rush out to do a Life Alert commercial”. (He majored in poultry science at Texas A&M.) Here’s how he describes the new discovery, which quickly takes a turn to fun shots at Newton. He’s still has the physical ability and the mental ability to go out there and be great. I envision him as a coach someday.

Some would say Newton needed to reach down and find an extra ounce of power when Von Miller sack-stripped him late in the fourth quarter and Newton didn’t dive for the fumbled ball because he felt he could’ve injured his leg. Unable to overcome the additional pressure by linebacker Brandon Marshall, five defensive linemen on the line of scrimmage and one-on-one coverage by corners Aqib Talib, Chris Harris and Bradley Roby, the Panthers’ offensive crumbled.
