the broncos won because of defense because there defense was 1st place in the league. also because they had many great players.

Did you see that fumble that was taken for a touchdown? The defense was awesome.

The defense of the Broncos forced turnovers, which basically turned the game around. Carolina did not know what was going on, as they were surprised by the brick wall. Cam Newton was held to minimal passing yards because of the amazing cornerback defense. When they tried to run the ball, they got stuffed by the defensive line, and linebackers before he broke he broke out. The offense did not get going until the momentum shifted from the forced turnovers.

because peton manny did nothing it was the defense stoped cam

becase i love the way they stoped cam neton with out the defence the patriots would be n super bowel 50

The Broncos won the Super Bowl purely because of their defense. If you look at the yardage that Manning put up, it wasn't much, showing that the Bronco's offense wasn't the key. Also the strip-sacks on Newton played a big part in winning the game, considering one of them was "returned" for a touchdown. If the Bronco's defense wasn't up to par, the Panthers would have rolled over them, without any problem, considering how great their defense is.

Did Peyton Manning even play in Super Bowl 50? Must've missed his 141 yards and 1 interception performance.
