Rooting for Broncos, but do not have much hope as Carolina looks too strong.  Cam is a beast.

If Broncos do not turn it over and plays a lot of field position type drives and keep it close, they may have a chance with that defense.

Carolina has to face a defense like no other in the NFL.

I know Panthers are favorites, but it's not an impossible task to win the Panthers

They get out of gas in the second half, if Broncos control them...Anything can happen.

This is good!!!! Denver D is outstanding.....Carolina O is struggling, but really both O are struggling. Has any team won a SB without scoring an offensive TD?

Cam has to take control, be a team leader and take this game......Denver has to keep doing what they are doing on D.

This really looks like Peyton Manning's last game. Man, those dying quail passes are killing me.

The Panthers coaching staff wanted Cam Newton to refrain from running so much. In doing so, they removed one of their biggest weapons from play. It was, "It's 1st and 10? Let's have Jonathan Stewart run it up the middle."

Really bad offensive coordinating in this one.  What were they saving Cam Newton for? Next Sunday?

Well this went exactly as I expected: Peyton looking dreadful and the defense carrying him. Just as it has all season. That's why I was pulling for Denver, a defense that epic deserves to win. Miller, Ware and the secondary owned it. The whole D though, great effort. Of course glad to see Peyton go out on top. 

Guess this makes up for all the mediocre to bad teams he had to carry. Football justice!

Congrats to the 2015 Denver Broncos!!

Seattle defense is not Denver's, told you.

Denver was never at a real risk.

Yeah, Seattle's D is still good but sorry, deff on the decline and can't even touch Denver. Which is not an insult, some stat places have put the 2015 Broncos defense as one of the best ever. 

In fact, been seeing all over the internet and social media how Carolina didn't show up/shat the bed....I dont know, wanna see some respect for Denver. All year long shut down the run, rushed the QB, stuck to WRs like glue, hit fast and hard. A dominating finish to a dominating season. Never thought I'd say this but good for Demarcus Ware. A great player for a long time, terrorized the Giants but cool to see him finally get a ring, now that he's not on Dallas LOL But really, very deserving. 

Also cool for Demayrius Thomas, one of my favorite players, bailing the team out (including my fantasy ones) since the Tebow days.

And hey, Peyton can ride off into the glorious sunset.

Do we have any Broncos fans btw? Not sure I've seen any. Who will start the 2016 season thread?

Fantastic performance by Denver D, once Talib got his head in the game. There were a few bad looks for Cam, bailing on the fumble recovery, pouting on the sideline, and the post game interview.

Congrats to Denver, what a defense.  Look at the playoff run of quarterbacks they went through, Big Ben, Brady, and then Cam and they did pretty convincingly.  I say their defense had more to do with the Panthers performance than their mistakes (and they did make some).

To me, this Super Bowl run of defensive performances may rank up there with the 85 Bears, the 2000(?) Ravens, and the 2013 Seahawks.

Glad for Manning, it is time to retire and ride off into Papa Johns sunset.  I cringe now when watching his passes flutter along.  Wonder if he will pursue a coaching career or broadcasting?

Denver D is the best ever.....has to be. They stuffed the run and controlled the O line all season long as well as receivers. But that D line and DE are as fast as I have ever seen, Carolina had no answer. No team would have had an answer....
Carolina could get no offense going at all, Cam was off with his throws and even his receivers could not do anything. Just shows you also the Carolina receivers were not SB caliber, they are not elite receivers....And where was Olsen?? He caught 4 passes for 40 yds......
Gotta give props to Carolina D, they stepped up and kept them in the game......Honestly though very little O by either team....This was a D game all the way.

I did not care who won the game, really thought Carolina was gonna win big....Denver is a great team, great win by an amazing QB, best ever with 200 career wins..for now but I think Brady is close by. Manning needs to shut it down, ride into the sunset with that trophy in his back pocket and his dignity, don't come back and then retire with a losing season......and please DO NOT accept a LA Rams offer. 

Not the best SB game....but for sure the best defensive showing by any team.

Great job for the Broncos! Hopefully their defense will be locked into the annals of history now with the ring. Have to feel good for Peyton...getting the second ring, an above .500 record in the playoffs, the most wins by anyone, the only QB to win a ring with two teams....

And now a month and a half or so to free agency frenzy. :p
