Denver’s defense gifts a title for Peyton Manning

SANTA CLARA, Calif. —

This was the career makeup call for Peyton Manning, not that he necessarily had anything to prove. After all of those yards and all of those touchdowns in those seasons for all of those teams, Manning was treated like royalty, surrounded by servants, Sunday.

Physically imposing and intimidating servants – the kind who impose even more pain than Roger Goodell’s couch from hell.

The Denver Broncos’ defense won the Super Bowl 24-10 over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.

The Panthers and Cam Newton were Orange crushed. Denver had seven sacks and forced four turnovers.
