Newton is coming into the Super Bowl after putting up an MVP season and now he can cap things off with a championship. The Panthers offense has been the best in the league this season and they now will face off against the top rated Broncos defense. Newton has made Ted Ginn and Corey Brown into true threats at wide receiver and Greg Olsen has shown that he is an elite player at tight end with his performance this season.
The Broncos defense is no joke though, as players like Von Miller, DeMarcus Ware, Aqib Talib and TJ Ward have turned the unit into the best in the league. The defense will have their hands full with Newton, as he is just as big as most of the linebackers and has no problem taking a hit. The key matchup that could decide this game is the Broncos D against the Panthers offense and whether Denver can hold Carolina back enough for Manning to put up enough points to win.
Manning is on the last legs of his career and getting a win for his second Super Bowl championship would cement kid legacy as one of the best quarterbacks of all time. Manning is already one of the best in history win or lose, but getting a second title will change how some have viewed his career around the league. Manning came to Denver to win a Super Bowl and after getting blown out by the Seahawks two years ago, the QB will have another chance to bring a title to the Broncos.
