On this Monday, however, Kubiak said he was not ready to name a starting quarterback for Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

He adds, “If they had asked me what do, I think I would have said, ‘Here’s a list of everyone that was ever in my band”. Not coincidentally, three of the inductees – Chicago , Deep Purple and Miller – finished in the top five in fan voting.

The original belief was that Manning’s foot problem started after he got injured against the Colts on November 8.

Kubiak said Manning would make the trip “and be a part of everything we’re doing and he’ll be on the sidelines, I’d assume”.

Kubiak had previously said that his meeting with Manning would be important to determine where the team would go next.

After speaking with Manning and trainer Steve Antonopulos, Kubiak mapped out a practice plan for Manning this week, but his partially torn left plantar fascia will keep him out Sunday. I’ll talk to (head athletic trainer Steve Antonopulos).

“So we said, OK, we’ll stop for the weekend”, coach Gary Kubiak said. “… We’re a football team and we go about our day that way all the time”. However, in recent weeks Osweiler and the Denver offense have grown stale, failing to score an offensive touchdown in the past seven quarters.

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.

Manning has said his doctors don’t know if or when he’ll be able to return to action this season.

Osweiler completed a career-best 35 of 51 passes for 308 yards, his first 300-yard game, but he was sacked five times by Khalil Mack and several receivers dropped on-target passes. “The question is over the next two days, I’m getting together with Peyton and with (Antonopulos) and we’re going to make a decision on how we proceed this week”. On Dec. 2, Manning told a few news outlets, including The Associated Press, in an interview at his locker that he’d been ailing for some time but he declined to say exactly when his foot began bothering him. Manning appeared in practice for the first time in 31 previous practices on Wednesday in a limited capacity, but was ultimately held out Friday’s practice. “But yeah, it’s a little different watching Peyton run scout team”. But Manning has made enough progress to get back on the football field. The Broncos are 3-1 in games he has started, but they have a tough game at Pittsburgh this weekend coming off a disappointing home loss to the Raiders.
