The Denver Broncos defense stifled quarterback Cam Newton and the high-flying Carolina Panthers on Sunday during their 24-10 Super Bowl 50 victory. While the players understandably received much of the attention, executive vice president of football operations John Elway helped build the championship roster and was given a chance to speak following the triumph.
The Broncos noted on Twitter the former quarterback said, “This one’s for Pat!”

Elway’s comments were in homage to team owner Pat Bowlen’s proclamation that “this one’s for John” when the Broncos won Super Bowl XXXII over the Green Bay Packers.
