Super Bowl MVP Von Miller wore a cowboy hat. Peyton Manning looked like a suburban dad in his vest & J. Crew-looking sweater. Fire trucks carried the world champs around Denver. An estimated 800k to 1 million fans poured into the city to get a look at the Lombardi and possibly the last look at Peyton as a member of the Broncos.
Just two days removed from a 24-10 win over the Panthers, Peyton Manning has his second trophy and Cam Newton is answering questions about not jumping on a fumble. His excuse, which came out today, is that he was protecting himself against injury.
Denver fans don’t care about any of that. They’re celebrating Lombardi number three. The other two titles came in 1997 and 1998. Elway retired in 1999 at 38. Peyton turns 40 in March.
