Last outing: 31-24 W @ Kansas City
Standouts: After the defense set the tone and scored the Broncos' lone touchdown in Week 1, the offese was more efficient in Week 2. Falling behind 14-0 in the first half, Manning connected with Emmanuel Sanders and Virgil Green to tie the game before halftime. Late in the fourth quarter, the Broncos needed a touchdown to tie and Manning conducted a smooth 80-yard, two-minute drive capped by Emmanuel Sanders' 19-yard score. But the defense would win the game, with ILB Brandon Marshall forcing a fumble on Jamaal Charles and CB Bradley Roby returning the fumble for the game-winning touchdown.
