Week 12 Patriots vs Broncos: Peyton Manning Expected to Miss Game Against Tom Brady

This might not be much of a surprise, but Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning is expected to sit out the week 12 showdown with the New England Patriots.

According to CBS Sports Jason La Canfora, the Broncos brass are thinking of putting Manning on ice for at least a couple of weeks to allow the veteran to heal. Manning is dealing with foot, rib, and shoulder injuries and was playing like the worst quarterback in the NFL. The Broncos can't afford a humiliating collapse over the back half of the season and they need Brock Osweiler to lead the team to the playoffs.
