Manning set for backup role in regular season finale
“It was a good week, and we will move forward with this weekend”, coach Gary Kubiak said.

Assuming he makes it through this week’s practices with no further setbacks in his recovery from a torn plantar fascia, he will be in uniform Sunday when the face the Chargers.
A win Sunday would give the Broncos a first-round bye in the playoffs.
Perhaps, for the first time since he arrived at the University of Tennessee, Peyton Manning will suit up for a football game and be a team’s backup quarterback. Sure, Manning on the roster may be an upgrade over a regular backup quarterback, but he is not what he once was. Considering that Manning’s foot was bothering him for “quite some time” before he left the Chiefs game on November 15, the call to stick with Osweiler is logical – even if it is breathtaking to consider the notion that the NFL’s all-time leader in touchdown passes and passing yardage will be a backup.
It’s an awkward position for Brock Osweiler to be placed in, but the Broncos quarterback has consistently tried to keep the attention off himself.
Bills: Coach Rex Ryan says running back LeSean McCoy is not expected to play in the team’s season finale against the New York Jets on Sunday because of a right knee injury. But if you STILL somehow believe that Manning is the best option for the Broncos, by all means share your reasoning in the comments. Manning is now signed until 2017 with the Broncos.
“It’s been a frustrating injury, but I had a good week of rehab last week, a good week of work on my own in the indoor facility”. Kubiak doubled down in December when he said the team is “fully committed to getting our quarterback – getting Peyton healthy and getting him back”. Manning is set to practice Wednesday night. Osweiler completed 27 of 39 passes for 299 yards with one TD to guide the Broncos (11-4) to their critical 20-17 overtime victory over AFC North champion Cincinnati on Monday. Making matters equally disturbing, San Diego is 0-5 against AFC West opponents this season, meaning Sunday’s game is its last opportunity to come away with a divisional win. In that defensive battle, Osweiler threw for 166 yards – his lowest total as a starter – while Rivers was sacked four times and had a season-low 57.1 passer rating.
That said, few of those things applied to Hasselbeck, until this final week. “And I’m still angry about it”.

“If you need any extra motivation, shoot, in my mind it’s, ‘Let’s not let Denver play another game at home this year”. His contract is up after this season and I think John Elway is ready to commit to Brock Osweiler. Don’t get me wrong, the Denver defense has been unbelievable all year, but they haven’t scored at the rate they were early in the season.
