For the first time since Osweiler moved into the starting lineup a month ago, Denver Broncos coach Gary Kubiak didn’t lay out a definitive plan for his quarterbacks when he met with the media Monday.

Today: It will dry out with a mix of sun and clouds expected, said StormCenter 7 Meteorologist Brett Collar. The rain will stop for a short period around midday, but there is a high chance of showers in the afternoon.
Peyton Manning has said he suffered the injury during the Broncos’ loss in Indianapolis on November 8 when he aggravated the foot on the artificial turf.

The alleged gunman is believed to have been 18-year-old Daquan Antonio Westbrook-a rapper who went by the name “Donkey Cartel”. CMPD says preliminary information on the scene indicates there was an argument between two groups of people inside the mall.
For at least one more week, the Denver Broncos are Brock Osweiler’s team.

Bryant had a rough first quarter with Durant guarding him. “But that being said, we’ll see how everything goes”, ended Bryant. That 118-78 embarrassment was the Lakers’ worst loss to the Oklahoma City/Seattle franchise.
It was a great sight for the Denver Broncos last Wednesday as franchise quarterback Peyton Manning practiced for the first time since sitting out last month due to a plantar fascia tear that already sidelined him for four games this season.
Following the loss, Manning spent two weeks with his left foot immobilized, first in a hard cast and then in a walking boot, before restarting his rehab. Manning will not dress at Pittsburgh on Sunday and Trevor Siemian will remain as Osweiler’s backup. “We gave him the weekend off, so we’ll see where we’re at”, Kubiak said of Manning.
Through nine games, Manning completed just 59.9 percent of his passes, his lowest mark since his rookie year. “Until I sit down and see exactly where Peyton’s at, where we’re moving this week”, he said. The Broncos’ offense has been held to 17 or fewer points in three of his four starts this year.
Brock Osweiler, who has gone 3-1 in Manning’s place will start. Osweiler was sacked five times in the game and did not throw a touchdown pass, but he had his first career 300-yard passing game, finishing with 308. Its the only game this weekend pitting teams with winning records. The Broncos followed suit by not having him practice.
The Broncos running game has been up and down this season and the team is coming into Week 15 dealing with some injuries, as CJ Anderson missed the game on Sunday with an ankle issue.
Although the frustration on Osweiler’s performance has been high as of late, recent reports claimed that he will still be the starting quarterback against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Manning is beginning to practice this week to test his injured foot, The Denver Post reported.
Mallett said that “the best thing, probably, was for me to be cut” after missing a team flight to Miami.
“Obviously it’s a coverage we should have handled better”, Kubiak said.

The Broncos bested that by a day, with Kubiak noting Tuesday that Manning is expected to practice Wednesday. We know what we were going to get.
