SANTA CLARA -- T.J. Ward slipped twice on the same play.
Blame that turf.
The Denver Broncos beat the Carolina Panthers to win the Super Bowl, and some players weren't happy with the field at Levi's Stadium.
"The footing on the field was terrible," Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib said. "San Fran has to play eight games on that field so they better do something to get it fixed. It was terrible."
The Super Bowl grass made by West Coast Turf was installed last month. It's a hybrid Bermuda 419 over-seeded with perennial rye, and it was grown on plastic sheeting.
