  • Denver Broncos – Peyton Manning Survives First Test

    Keyword: Survives, not thrives. Because there was a whole lot of fear regarding Peyton Manning’s debut for the Denver Broncos against the ultra-blitzing Pittsburgh Steelers, waiting for the first moment he’ll take a big hit or sack and connect with the ground. After a 31-19 win, getting sacked twice in the process and hit a couple of more times, it’s safe to say he’s completely back after 20 months.

    It was supposed to be some sort of crowning night. The Super Bowl champions always win their season opener, at least the last eight have.
