The Denver Broncos defense came up big forcing Cam Newton to fumble twice, and sacking him 6 times to win Super Bowl Fifty, 24 to 10.

I wouldn't call this a game with explosive plays and amazing highlight footage, but the Denver defense was scary much of the time, and proved to the world that a great defense can win the game.

Peyton Manning didn't have a great game, but again give credit to the Carolina defense for stopping many drives and creating two turnovers.

I said the only way the Broncos could win is to stop Cam Newton and the offense and that is exactly what they did.

Linebacker Von Miller earned Super Bowl MVP honors after forcing two fumbles and getting 2 1/2 sacks.

I think most of us know that Peyton will be making announcement on his future very soon and most likely it will be to retire from the game, when asked after the game if he planned on retiring Manning said “I’ll take some time to reflect,” It’s been an emotional week. I want to go kiss my wife and my kids. And I’m going to drink a lot of beer tonight.”

Carolina Panther fans will try and forget this one, but on a bright note, Cam Newton will be back next year and this team is going to be around for a while and will have several chances to win a championship.

So that wraps up the 2015-16 NFL season, and fans will wait to see what their teams will look like in September as we all start out 0 and 0.

Go Giants!
