Starting Brock will leave Manning tied for wins record
“The ball was on the ground, and I was feeling like, ‘There’s no way somebody’s going to take this ball from me, ‘” Ware said.

“He played great”, Green said. If the Bengals receive a first-round bye – which would happen if they beat the Ravens in Cincinnati next week and the Broncos lose to the Chargers at home – it’s possible Dalton makes it back for the team’s first playoff game.
The Broncos (11-4) overcame a 14-0 first-half deficit in clinching their fifth consecutive playoff berth and denying the Bengals (11-4) their first road win on a Monday night since 1990. Ware recovered the fumble, ending the overtime possession for the Bengals (11-4), who also are playoff-bound. “I looked up to see the coverage and the snap caught me by surprise”.
Prior to his fumbled snap on the game’s final play, the Bengals’ quarterback did almost enough in his second career start to clinch the No. 2 overall seed in the AFC and a coveted first-round bye in the postseason.
But when Mike Nugent banged out a 52-yard field goal with 6:51 left in regulation, that tied the score at 17, and McManus’s awful shank miss from 45 yards out with four seconds left in regulation sent the game into overtime. He appeared in four games for the Eagles in 2010, completing 11 of 16 passes for 107 yards, with no touchdowns and two interceptions. And yet it was one of those contests that felt a bit like a vintage dead-ball era National Football League game, where defenses were the dominant paradigm on both sides of the ball.
“There’s an old saying: ‘It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish, ‘” Broncos quarterback Brock Osweiler said. Or maybe the Bengals are just Bengaling, the way they’ve tended to flop in crunch time year after year under coach Marvin Lewis.
That one was just shy of the longest touchdown drive of the season in term of yards, coming up 36 inches shy of a 91-yard march in the first Cleveland game on November 5. “I wanted a chance to redeem myself, obviously”, McManus said. The second one after that was one of the best kicks of the year. I was looking just to see how they were adjusting to [wide receiver] A.J. They have a lot of talented players.
“It’s my fault. I told the guys that”, McCarron said about the play. The focus moving forward will be San Diego and very quick. He surpassed the 1,000-yard mark for the second season in a row and joined fellow WR Demaryius Thomas (1,187 yards receiving) in achieving the milestone.
Marshall hurt his ankle in the fourth quarter against Cincinnati, got it re-taped, but ended up leaving the game again. He was the team’s second-leading tackler with seven stops before exiting. But Denver adjusted in the second half, limiting McCarron and the offence to 90 yards, while cranking up the offence under Brock Osweiler, who was making his sixth straight start in place of Peyton Manning. They would be the #3 seed in that event, with Cincinnati as the #2 and New England at #1. Let’s assume Cincy doesn’t get the bye and has to play in the first round as a No. 3 seed.
The Chargers are sitting in a flawless spot as the play spoiler, and by Sunday, San Diego will have had ten days to recover and get ready.

So now that Denver’s overtime victory over Cincinnati is in the books, what does it mean? This time around, Kubiak made the decision about three minutes after the Broncos played, and he probably did it to avoid any type of controversy.
