SANTA CLARA, Calif.—The best thing for Peyton Manning is that he won the Super Bowl.
A close second—he never has to lace ‘em up again.
Constantly harassed, never quite comfortable—sort of the way the whole season has played out—Manning walked away with his second Super Bowl title Sunday night, after Denver’s defense all but handed him the Lombardi Trophy with a 24-10 victory over the Carolina Panthers.
Manning wouldn't budge on whether this was, in fact, his last game.
