Well, this Super Bowl L will never be thought of as a offensive fireworks show but a game in which the defenses dominated. The Broncos only had 194 yards total. The Panthers had 304 yards total. But the most important statistic was 5 - 2. Panthers lost the ball five times and the Broncos two times. Turnovers was the decisive factor. After the game Manning stated clearly it was defense that won the game because the offense sucked. I'm sure Manning, who is the oldest Quarterback to win a Super Bowl, will retire. His neck is very fragile and it is obvious that his passing arm is well past its prime. He is also the first Quarterback to win the Super Bowl in two different teams ( Colts and Broncos ). Besides, retiring as a winner is financially much more profitable ( think of all those Papa John's pizzas he can sell
). Anyways, my prediction was crap and it is a good thing I didn't bet on the game. I know the Las Vegas Sports Books made a killing since Carolina was favored at 5 1/2 points. And now we will all be subjected to Denver Broncos fans sore winner bragging.
