LVP
Peyton Manning has become a turnover machine through five weeks. The offense as a whole is underperforming but Manning is the one placing the team is sticky situations far too often. He threw two more interceptions Sunday, totaling seven this season. If the offensive line can get healthy and the running game improves, Manning’s problems may subside but if Sunday’s game is any indication, that may not happen soon.
Up next
The Broncos will travel to Cleveland to take on the Browns (2-3) next Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium. The Browns have improved the last few seasons and are coming off a big overtime win over the Baltimore Ravens. The Broncos will be hoping that DeMarcus Ware, who left Sunday’s game early due to a back injury, and left tackle Ty Sambrailo can return to the starting lineup. The win over the Raiders gave the Broncos a three game lead in the AFC West. Kansas City also lost Sunday and the San Diego Chargers face the Pittsburgh Steelers Monday night.
