Broncos announce Brock Osweiler to start this week vs. Bengals

Manning has been out since his four-interception, 0.0-passer rating nightmare against the Kansas City Chiefs on November 15 made it obvious he couldn’t perform with a partially torn plantar fascia in his left heel.

New “Star Wars” film exceeds billion mark in global box office
The Hunger Games and Creed both managed to stay in the top 10 according to estimates with .3 and .6 million. Of this weekend’s overall gross for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, IMAX grosses made up an estimated USmil.

Still with Manning out, Denver will go with the 28-year-old passer as head coach Gary Kubiak said following Wednesday’s practice according to ESPN, “We’re going with Brock; we’ll rally around him”.


Marcus Mariota might be out the rest of the year
The New England Patriots took care of business at Gillette Stadium Sunday afternoon with a 33-16 win over the Tennessee Titans. The quarterback said that his right knee was twisted during a sack by linebacker Jamie Collins. “That’s all I have to say”.

Osweiler will make his sixth straight start for the Broncos (10-4) when they host the Cincinnati Bengals (11-3) Monday night.

He did not know yet whether Manning would be on the sideline for a third consecutive game or would watch inside the Broncos’ locker room, as he did November 29 against New England. Cincinnati, who finds themselves a +3.5 underdog, can’t afford to start turning the ball over and would be wise to test Gio Bernard’s effectiveness on the ground before they turn the reigns over to an unproven quarterback. Peyton Manning will once again be inactive this week. “Let’s go from there, okay?”

Both vowed to refocus for the Steelers game, and Thomas did catch two touchdown passes as the Broncos raced to a 17-point first-half lead.

“It was a workout”, Kubiak said, also confirming that he personally attended the session.

Manning’s health has been a major concern for the Broncos this season and after resuming limited practice last week, he had to miss all of Friday’s practice after suffering a setback physically. I show my emotion inside the white lines, and when I leave the field, I’m pleased with the win but I try to never get too high or too low. “He’s doing everything that we ask him to do and he’s doing it because he wants to do it”.

The reason why Osweiler starting this time around came into a little bit of question is simple: he struggled in the second half of his team’s loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

A win will give the Bengals a first round bye. “I’m going to have him working inside because I think that’s what’s best”.
