As if thats not exciting enough out there, how about that beyonce video, has impeccable timing, doesnt she . She planned that so perfectly. She can do no wrong. You have to check out this video. Admittedly a little haunting but blue ivy makes an appearance. I think she steals the show. The video is incredible. All hail queen b. And a rumor shell be performing that song tonight at the super bowl. Well see. Builds up to the moment, doesnt it . She knows what shes doing. Well come back to you in our top story, the fireworks in last nights reblican debate. Many on the stage setting their sights on marco rubio, but no one seemed to be spared by the end of the night. We have full coverage on both sides this morning. But lets start with nbcs katy tur covering the republicans. Good morning. Last night it cameown to experience as the republican governors took the frontrunmers to task. None more so than marco rubio, who w surging before the debate, and is now on its heels. The grand old party, which at first looked more like the grand old pileup with miscues and donald trumum reporter and forgotten candidates. Yes, were going to introduce Ohio Governor john kasich. Repter spared no time piling on marco rubio who had the same line four times during the debate. Barack obama doesnt know what hes doing. This notion that barack obama doesnt know what hes doing. Anyone who believes that barack obama isnt doing what hes understand what were dealing with here. Reporter a target on his back, rubio gave governor chris ristie the opening he needed, arguing the freshman senator has no depth. Marco, the thing is this, when youre president of the United States, when youre governor of a state, the memorized 30 second speech where you talk about how Great America is at the end of it doesnt solve one problem for one person. They expect you to plow the snow. Chris, your state got hit by a massive snowstorm two weeks ago and you didnt even want to go back. They had to shame you for going back and you stayed there for 36 hours and you left andame back to campaign. Reporter back on the debate stage and once again front and center, donald trump. The frontrunner needing a w but getting repeated boos after his latest jabs at jeb bush. Let me talk. Quiet. Out of time. A lot of times a lot of times [ booing ] thats allis donors and special interests out there. Reporter the billionaire missingg a major opportunity on owned the idea of a wall. Build a wall, were going to triple the border patrol, were going to increase and actually sinceonald enjoyed that, i will simply say ive got somebody in mind to build it. Reporter though trump tried to turn the moment to his advantage in the debate spin room. Why did you let him own that issue tonight . He didnt own it. I owned it. As soon as i looked at him, the whole room cracked up. They understand thats my issue. Reporter done spin, the candidates are back out in front of vots today, making their final pitch for the final push. As for the crowd makeup you heard donald trump allude to that a moment ago. The rnc tells us 75 of the 1,000 seats were for its donors. It is a big day today, a big day tomorrow. No time for badad headlines, guys. Chuck todd is moderator of meet the press and in man chest they are chester this morning. Good morning to you. Good morning, sheinelle. Night, rubio getting hit by his rivals, in particular chris christie. Did the debate put a serious dent into rubios electability arguement . Will this have an effect . Well, look, i do think it has an impact here. This is a very, very i would say fluid situation here in New Hampshire. It is not clear what the it is a jumble, i would say, between second and sixth place. The only thing anybody agrees on is donald trump is ahd, and nobody knows by how many points. I think rubio had some momentum. What was amazing about his performance last night is everyone was telegraphing rubio would be the target and he seemed wholly unprepared. Chris christie had been telegraphing his hits on rubio r two days and it was as if he hit a brick wall heever saw coming. Thats what makes, i think, rubios performance even more troubling to perhaps some potential supporters. Lets talk about this. Looking forward to New Hampshire, analysts say there is not one but three tickets to be trump and cruz on one side, on the far right and this establishment candidate. As you mentioned, for a long time, people thought perhaps it is going to be rubio. Is he damaged . Who would this establishment candidate be now . Well, look, i think it is very possible you have such a jumble between second and fifth, you know. You could have a scenario where trump is sitting at 30 , and then second through fifth is Something Like 17, 16, 15, 14, 13. So the point is, if it is that jumbled, which i think last nights debate offers that opportunity for a result like that, well, then who gets out . There may not be an incentive to get out. The attempt to winnow the particular socalled establishment candidates, but instead we move to South Carolina and South Carolina becomes the primary that essentially separates the rubio, kasich, bush part of the primary and thats where we find o o who becomes the chief challenger to cruz and trump. I tell you what, you cannot write this. Chuck, stay right there. It is. Were going to hear from the democrats now and then well come back to you. Lets turn to Nbcs Kristen Welker following the race between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. Good morning. Reporter good morning to you. Senator sanders has a big lead here in New Hampshire, fueled by those youngervoters. He took a break from the campaign trail last night to have a littleeit of fun, making a guest appearance on snl alongside host larry david who, of course, does that spot on impression of him. His appearance undoubtedly will only energize those younger supporters even more. Snl becoming a popular stop for president ial candidates. Take a look at this very memorable scene when the two appeared in a skit gether, acting out what it would be like to be on the titanic. I am so sick of the 1 geing this preferential enough is enough we need to unite and Work Together if were all going to get through this. Sounds like socialism to me democratic socialism. Whats the difference . Reporter some big laughs there. Well, senator sanders will be back on the campaign trail here in New Hampshire today. It is secretary clinton who will be off of the trail, shes going to visit flint, michigan, the site of the water crisis impacting so many africanamericans. Thats a visit which could resonate in early voting states with large africanamerican communities like South Carolina. Clinton, who is trailing sand birz ers by double digits in most polls is trying to close that gap. Her strategy is touting the work shes done to promote womens rights, even calli in her husband, secretary of state Madeleine Albright to campaign with her. Shes also trying to paint senator sanders as being weak on foreign policy. Flint, her husband, former president bill clinton, will be here in New Hampshire campaigning for her. Sheinelle, back to you. Kristen welker, thank you. Lets bring chuck back in by all appearances, bernie will win New Hampshire, the cnton Campaign Already making the argument that he has the advantage being fro a neighboring state. It is almost as if theyre lowering expectations, but, chuck, can you put this in perspective for us . The fact is, until recently Hillary Clinton was the presumptive nominee a a now this is the first in the nation primary that she can losese how big of a deal is this . Look, i still think it is a big deal particularly when you think about the history the clintonsave had here in New Hampshire. New hampshire saved bill Clintons Campaign in 1992. New hampshire arguably saved Hillary Clintons campaign, prolonged that fight in 2008. So to get blown out here, yes, neighboring senators and governors have had an advantage in new hampspsre through the years. There is no doubt that shes not but to get blown out, to lose by double digits i think would be not just disappointing to her, but i thi that could give momentum to sanders arguably where you have some other democrats who just assumed clinton was going to be their candidate, who takes a second look at sanders. That said, i think if clinton can get this within single digits, make the race a little more competitive, then that could take a little bit of air out of the sanders balloon. Chuck, thanks. Well look for much more on meet the press this morning when you sit down wh Hillary Clinton, donald trump and Bernie Sanders. Stick with today for full primary coverage, live from New Hampshire on primary tuesday. To the other big story of the day, of course thats the big game happening at 6 30 eastern tonight. It is super bowl 50. The panthers against the broncosos at levis stadium, in a moment, well talk to bob costas from nbc sports about the game, about the hgh allegations against Peyton Manning as well. Dreyer who had a really tough assignment mentment this week. Good morning to you again. Im ghoeting a ingnot getting a whole lot of sleep so at times it is tough. But youre at all t t parties. Thats the problem. It has been an amamang week in the bay area. We had thousands of people flying in to this area and the rich and famous, of course, flying in on their private jets. About 1500 private jets there have been parties, some ive been to, an concerts and nhl honors award last night. Only one thing left to do, play the game. Finally super bowl sunday, the Big Questions will be answered, is it thehe crowning achievement of Peyton Mannings legacy or the start of cam newtons. This could be mannings last me. Looking forward to playing in this game and dealing with all the other stuff after this. Reporter or a chance for newton to silence ctics who say hes too brasas people are going to judge and have their own opinion on certain things that i dont have reporter and will it be a hollywood ending for the panthers michael oher of blind side fame, charged with protecting ms blind side. These guys around m m made my job easier because theyre playing great. Reporter oddsmakers tabhe panthers as five point who knows. But there is one sure thing, the game ticket is going to cost you. I bought 4500 each. Reporter but the prices coming. Last night thousands turned away from a super bowllity jammed to capacity. Even the halftime entertainment has people buzzing, beyonce dropped a new video yesterday ahead of the game, but the internet has been snarkier with british alt rocker coldplay with the betterhalftimeshows. It is a blast but crazy all at the same time. Reporter last night, the stars traded turf for red carpet at the nfl honors awarar, footballs biggest night before anquananoldin was named man of the year. I can help as many people as possible. Reporter now there is just one more prize left to award, the lombardi trophy. Are you nervous . What i the feeling . Im excited for him. Im rooting for him. But ill be a little nervous tomorrow once game time starts up. And by nhl honors awards, i meant nfl. This is football. This is football. I was talking to eli manning, he, for some reason, didnt divulge if it would be peytons final game today, but a lot of people are comparing it to super bowl iii when the broncos took it all when john elway retired after that game. Well see what happens but it will be a fun one no matter what. Dylan dreyer in santa clara, thank you so much. Bob costas is the host of nbcs football night in america. Bob, always good to see you. Thank you for being with me, sir. Hall o famer, 39 years old, had the foot injury that kept him at one point playing backup. No matter the outcome tonigh is this Peyton Mannings last game . I think it is ikely his last game. And it is obvious that he wouldnt want to make any declaration about it before hand. But if one had to guess, it is likely his last game. And it would be a storybook ending if you could go out with a super bowl victory. Roger goodell confirmed on friday that the league is continuing its investigation into those hgh allegations. Peyton manning vehemently denying ever using performance enhancing drugs. Is this the kind of thing that can tarnish his name, that can tarnish his legacy, bob . Not as it stands now and i know that some people will say that the media is inclined to dismiss anyththg that might be besmirch Peyton Mannings reputation, not only because hesseen such a gre player, but because he carried himself with such good class and good nature in every way that virtually everyone in the media not naive. We know performance enhancing drugs have been a part of sports for a couple of generations or more so the nfl is right to investigate this. Just as major league basebalal is investigating baseball players. As it stands now, the sole source completely recanted all the allegations, they have no other corrobororion, there is nothing even close to a smoking gun, so to assume guilt or even to suspect anything beyond what we now know i think is unfair. And if it is left where it presently stands, which is to say they find nothing beyond this, i dont think it damages peytons legacy. Lets talk about cam newton, that p pthers quarterback, 65, built like an arm back line backer, arm like a cannon. What do you think that cam newton has so man haters, bob . It may not be everybodys cup the dab dance and everything else. But, look, hes a, a terrific player. Thisiss very unlikely to be the only super bowl in which he plays. And hes so charismatic, it is not just hes having fun, and bringing his teammates along for the ride, even in the press coerences that smile, that presence that he has, hes good for the league. Hes part of the next generation of nfl stars. I know youre not a youre not a big fan of prognostications or speculating. Because youre alwayay wrong so whats the point . If you had to put money on this one, who wins tonight . I t tnk if these two teams were to play ten times on a neutral field, carolina wins six or seven. And if the game is a blowout, it is almost certainly carolina that blows denver out rather than the other ay around. But there are lots of scenarios by which you could see denver winning this game. And if they do, i think it will be a close one. Ill leave you with this observation as we all await beyonce, i think the first covered, craig, the halftime was up with people and the new christie minstrels. Thin have changed. Just a bit. Always good to see you. Thank you for waking up so early, my friend. Who said i ever went to sleep . Fair enough. See you, bob. Now to an International Situation heating up this morning. The United States Security Council is meeting today to discuss a controversial rocket launch by north korea overnight.

A man fleeing a fight in a baltimore bar sparked a car crashing melee caught on camera. You see a black suv slam into the rear of a smaller white car.

Police say the driver then ran over a woman. Look at this. Before speeding off. He was caught several blocks away. The injured woman was taken to the hospital in serious condition. My goodness.

The New Hampshire primary two days away. Two people are dead and six others injured after a bizarre bobsled accident that happened in alberta, canada.

Look at this. More than a dozen cars started sinking into the melting icece on lake geneva. Parking for the winter fest in that city. Several cars are daged so badly that theyre not going to be able to be driven out once again. What a mess, you know. You think it is safe to park on the ice. Super bowl sunday now, new technology helping to keep Football Players safe and coaches make decisions during the game. Olivia sterns is in santa clara. Good mning to you. Good morning. When the players take to the field here at levis stadium later today, theyll be wearing a cool new piece of technology that will be invisible to all of us. Theyre called rfid tags or radio frequency chips, and theyre actually helping players train both harder and smarter. You can think of it as big data meets the nfl. By n n it is a familiar scene on sunday night football. Stats popping up on the top of location, distance traveled and speed. Great for fan bragging rights. But thats not all. Is the technoloky making you a better coach . I hope so. Reporter thats new Orleans Saints coach sean payton who invited us down to the saints practice facility to see how this new technology wowos. It starts with these two little chips. Each about the size and weight of a quarter. So tiny. So light. If you are 63 lineman, a little thing like this doesnt get in the way for you. Reporter jill is with zebra technology, the company changing the way we watch and play football. How does this work . So, it sends a blink from these to receivers in the stadium that sends the information to the servers and we can instantly see what is going on. So when they move, we know. Look at james. Yes. 112 yards hes been running. The data is helping his inging inging his team train smarter and safer. We can look at their work and say, hey, this guy really worked today and maybe this one didnt with the hopes that tomorrow when we have the same players out, we would be smart on how we practice. Reporr i decided to try it out with a little help from some Newman School Football Players. This is owe live whys game jersey. Were going to find out if you wantnto draft you or not. Reporter okay, im ready. Pupume in, coach. Numbers arent bad. Im kind of impressed a little bit with the overall measurables. Reporter all right. Giving plars and fans something to cheer about. Now, tonight as the players are actually running around, we at home will get to see the data in real time because it shows up on screen during the analysis. The data live during the big game, so perhaps thats one more reason that the best seats may be right at your own home. Olivia sternsut there in santa clara wheels. She has a career as a wide receiver. I was prepared to talk about technology, but now wheels. Impressive for sure. Will probably be an analyst for thursday night on nbc now. Thats right. Lets go back out to dylan outside of levis stadium with a final check of the forecast, dylan. We arere gearing up for the big game, finally, it is super bowl sunday. But last night it was the nfl honors awards and it was really an honor to be there. Eric barry brought the house to tears. He won the comeback player of the year award and when he gave his acceptance speech, everyone was just in tears because he beat hodgkins lymphoma and went on to have the best season of his career. We saw all the inductees into the hall of fame, class of 2016, so everybody was very excited to see him on stage. Also, cam newton won mvp this year. He won 48 out of the 50 votes. So, of course, he was a favorite to win mvp for this year. So i got a chance to bring a very special guest of my own, my husband got to join me there. A kid in a candy shop, taking in all of the people that were there. It was a whos who in t t nfl world and it really was a wonderful night. Little bit chilly at night, thats the way it works here in the bay area. Star off with Crystal Clear skies, chilly mornings and into the 70s for game time later on today. Lets look at weather going on across the country, where we are looking at this huge ridge in the jet stream bringing temperatures well above average. Near record highs for some areas. L. A.

Werr keeping an eye on the low off the carolinas today bringing mainly rain and snow through the thats a l for your first alert forecast on this sunday fun day were and thats your latest forecast.

An iteam investigation, hard to believe there could be controversy around an election, but we found plenty on a recent trip to the granite state. The smallest town in New Hampshire is a place called Harts Location. It sits on either side of the saco river, high in the white youre not in the middle of nowhere, but youre kind of close to it. Right on the edge. Right on the edge. Reporter bill king grew up here and observed in a state crawling with president ial wannabes, it is rare to see one here he. We had one on the end.

And first in the u. S. So folks here were voting in the middle of the night befor the people in dixville notch. Yes. Reporter you had a claim to oh, yes. Good night. Reporter dixixlle notch has gotten a lot of publicity over the years in the first place of america tovote, but that tradition actually started in Harts Location. Voting at midnight meant the local railway workerscould get to work on time. Usually patrol the track before the first trains went up. So seven trains each way during the course of the day.
