Langford scored on a 2-yard run with 24 seconds left to cap a 65-yard drive.
In his first National Football League start, Osweiler, Manning’s longtime backup, completed 20 of 27 passes for 250 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. “To get back on track like that on the road, tough place to play”.
Kubiak said he wasn’t certain if Manning will practice this week or if he will back up Osweiler on Sunday. I fully recognize that he might be the greatest quarterback to play if not one of the greatest. I wasn’t going to let one of those days go by where I didn’t learn something. I’ve been very appreciative for my situation to sit behind a guy like Peyton.
Ronnie Hillman carried a season-high 21 times for 102 yards.
Quarterback Brock Osweiler of the Denver Broncos celebrated his 25th birthday as a starter for his team’s game against the Chicago Bears recently.
“He’s a receiver”, shouted Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller. The Bears have won their past two games after dropping the previous two with their offense and defense clicking at the same time.
While Langford was contained, the Broncos’ running backs went off and it made for a long day full of play-action confusion for the Bears’ defense, regardless of what the final margin was. For the third consecutive game, the opposing offense moved the ball down the field easily to go up, 7-0. Riding shotgun, taking the wheel late in a few game where the lights and the stage overwhelm Osweiler, cobbling together a performance that makes people think Manning could have done it all along if Kubiak and Elway hadn’t betrayed him. “So we were aggressive and came up short on 4th and 4”.
Even more impressive, Osweiler’s family was there to see it. After their flight was canceled, his parents John and Kathy Osweiler drove from Denver, arriving in Chicago in the middle of the night.
The Broncos have a championship-caliber defense, especially when it can sustain a pass rush and force turnovers like it did Sunday against the Bears by intercepting Jay Cutler twice.
Robbie Gould-Possession after possession, the Bears’ offense could not find a way to get the ball into the end zone.
BUCCANEERS 45, EAGLES 17 Jameis Winston and Doug Martin were an unstoppable combination. Whether Manning truly believed he could gut it out that day, was too proud or ego-driven to yield to Osweiler, or didn’t want to let everyone down who hoped to see him set a pithy passing record, he wound up living out the worst-case scenario against the Chiefs.
It was a significant step back from last week when the Bears’ defense held Rams star rookie Todd Gurley to 45 yards on 12 attempts. The team has 144 yards receiving, 13 catches, one touchdown. Martin had 177 yards in the first half, including runs of 84 and 58 yards. Denver finished with 170 yards on the ground on 36 carries. Sanders had 237 for the Lions against Tampa in 1994.
Osweiler proved that on the first series, as he hit a wide open Demaryius Thomas midfield on a short pass that DT turned into a touchdown with his typical YAC explosion.
At this point, Osweiler is the better option for the Broncos. He had just eight tackles and one fumble recovery this season. Tight ends Vernon Davis and Owen Daniels combined for 10 receptions and 137 yards. After losing seven games by a total of 32 points, this would have been a victory to savor if it didn’t cost them their quarterback.

The Bears will have to do the unimaginable and go to Green Bay on Thanksgiving/Brett Favre jersey retirement night. Like when the Packers did the same thing to A-Rod (Aaron Rodgers).
