Charlie Blackmon is willing the Broncos to a Super Bowl victory with karate

Showing solidarity with his fellow Coloradan athletes, Charlie Blackmon is pulling for a Broncos win in the Super Bowl on Sunday. But he must know that the Panthers are the considerable favorite, expected to win by both professional NFL analysts and some of his MLB colleagues, because Blackmon isn't messing around with the sending of his good vibes.
Just how not-messing-around is he? Well, he did KARATE. 

Was he threatening the the Broncos with karate chops, should they lose?
Was he trying to intimidate the Panthers? If so, Intimidation Factor = 100
Or, perhaps, he wants to teach both teams the quiet strength and interminable focus taught in the classic film "The Karate Kid."

Maybe all three. But really, he probably knew that the best chance the Broncos have to win is if Blackmon himself looks really cool while rooting for them, and there's no better way to look cool than to do air karate.
