Panthers Player On Peyton Manning: 'He's Had Enough ... It's Our Turn'

[Big Boss]

The public sentiment in Super Bowl 50 is behind the Panthers (betting-wise), but the public is sentimental about Peyton Manning.


The Panthers have very little emotional concerns about the Broncos quarterback, however. Carolina fullbackMike Tolbert even thinks Manning's "had enough" when it comes to success in the NFL and that it's the Panthers trun for some love.

“We don't really care if this is his last game,” Tolbert told Scott Fowler of the Charlotte Observer. “He's played what -- 18, 19 years? He's had enough, you know what I'm saying? It's our turn."

The always-animated Tre Boston had no interest in giving Manning the metaphorical final piece of pizza in the world either.

“So if a man has the last piece of pizza in the world, are you going to take that last piece?” Boston asked. “One of y'all got to live! One of us has to win, and I'm not trying to lose. It's you and that one man. You gonna live or not? I'm trying to win. I don't care who you are."

In Boston's defense, who would give up the last piece of pizza in the world? Just so someone else can survive. (The only way you give that up is if it's Chicago "pizza" and you don't have a set of silverware.)

Long story short is the Panthers aren't going to Santa Clara in order to celebrate the end of Peyton Manning's illustrious run in the NFL. They're going to win a Super Bowl.

As for Manning, he would wholeheartedly disagree he's had "enough" (only one Super Bowl win isn't much compared to his talents) but he certainly wouldn't begrudge the Panthers for wanting to win the game. Few people know how difficult it is to take home the Lombardi Trophy quite like Peyton.

Winning the Super Bowl at this point in his career had de minimis impact on Peyton overall legacy, those of us who saw this season will always remember him competing for a job with Brock Osweiler. Meanwhile, a Cam victory would be a huge boost to the beginnings of a potential GOAT story.

Nobody ever goes into the details of somebody's career after it's over. If the Broncos win, nobody's going to remember that Brock Osweiler had the starting QB spot for a minute, nobody's going to remember that Peyton was pretty awful throughout the season, nobody's even going to remember that he was carried by what could possibly be the GOAT defense. All anybody is going to remember is that Peyton went out on top as the champion again, cementing his legacy as one of the GOATs. This shyt would do wonders for his career/legacy and the way people look at it.

Actually there is this thing called the Internet nowadays so plenty of people will remember it.
