Wow, Cam Newton didn't handle himself well in his post game conference. He had a tremendous year and was clearly the MVP (should have been unanimous), but even though he should be disappointed in the loss, he should have handled himself better. He threw his team under the bus and then got up and walked out. That performance was worse than his game play. Very unfortunate.

I'm guilty of that, but it wasn't a very good game to watch. Denver deserved the win with their brilliant defense and the way Carolina got rattled. That was a retirement gift for Peyton who basically went along for the ride tonight. Congrats to Denver.

I think the highlight was the R8 commercial with the astronaut.

I guess he didn't like the orange and blue wrapped humble pie that tasted a bit like grass and dirt he was forced to swallow.

Way to go Broncos! Definitely a good way for Peyton to go out on top!! Defense made that game for sure!! Hopefully Cam will learn a bit of humility from this experience and become a better winner in the future!

I thought the R8 commercial was the best one too!

Cam is still young and might never be the human being that Payton is, but he is a hell of an athelete and will have many more shots at the ring. I was hoping with every bone in my body that Payton would win and go out on top. He has proved to be a class act in every way. Congrats to Denver, they shut the Panthers down.

My Brother sent us a short video of my 90-year old Dad in Colorado doing his Happy Dance at the end. Way to go Broncos.

I am not a big football fan, but after I heard that arrogant azz that North Carolina has for a quarterback in the pregame interview I became a real Denver fan.

I'm sure there are 2 people in the world that love that Newton fella, himself and his mother?.

I understand he didn't exactly set a high mark for sportsmanship in the post-game locker room interview either. (But I didn't see it)

Agree.
What does Cam the Ham have to say now? Oh, I guess he slinked away to pout.

Exciting game with lots of turnovers. Go Denver defense!!

It's easy to be all smiles when things go your way. It's how one handles adversity that really shows what kind of person you are.
I read that Cam Newton's new name is now the incredible sulk.

The new Audi R8 commercial was good, love the car but I think it sends the wrong message.When you put a senior citizen, with what appears to be dementia, behind the wheel of a 200MPH sportscar and show him running thru the gears on a mountain road, it doesn't seem right.

We had the game on, but did not "watch" it, scream and didn't yell like most football fans do. At halftime, it was obvious Denver had won.
Unanimously, my wife and I DID NOT see any commercials that knocked our socks off (all of them were weak, weak, weak)-------------remember the old Bud frog and camelion commercials? And the commentaries-------------GOD, I get so sick of all the damn commentaries-------------on EVERYTHING any more!!!!!!
Halftimes??????? YUK!!!!!!!!!! I had a hamburger, it was MUCH better!

Thanks. We'll take it! Glad to see Vonn get MVP; he certainly earned it.

I can't stand all the pre-game hype (aka B.S.) and especially the halftime shows, so I turn on the game as it is beginning and go do something else during the extended halftime shows.

Very happy to see the Broncos win and will probably spend way too much on a hat and shirt this year!
