9. DeMarcus Ware, 33

For the first time in his 11-year career, Ware has a shot at slipping a Super Bowl ring on his finger. He’s accomplished many things over the course of his playing days: 134.5 sacks, 35 fumbles forced and eight Pro Bowls. But there’s nothing the former Dallas Cowboys legend wants more at this point in his career than to hoist the Vince Lombardi trophy.

Here’s a few tidbits from Ware’s words with the media last week:

"This is my 11th year. It’s already January right now — 2016. The year 2015 is already gone. Time flies by so fast, and you have to cherish every single moment. I can remember maybe my first sack, but not the little, small things in the middle. The big things that you can accomplish with a team, that’s what you can remember forever. I look at it right now, this is one of those things that I can accomplish that way and can be a stamp in the book."

Ware was the Broncos’ best pass rusher in the AFC Championship Game, pacing the team with seven pressures of Tom Brady. If the Broncos are going to have any hope of slowing down the explosive Carolina attack, Ware will have to put that stamp in the book early and often.
