BRONCOS

What we learned: For those who needed a reminder, Peyton Manning is just fine. The Broncos wanted to get off to a fast start in this one after back-to-back games in which they dug themselves too big a hole. Ten first-quarter points helped, but an explosion in the third quarter (three touchdowns) sealed it. Manning had his best game yet, throwing for 338 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.9 percent of his passes. The run defense returned to the form we saw the first two weeks, holding Darren McFadden to 34 rushing yards.

What the heck?

Talk about making the best of your opportunities — RB Willis McGahee was on the field for 36 offensive snaps, or 46 percent of the time Denver had the ball. In those 36 snaps, he had 19 carries for 112 yards (5.9-yard average) and one touchdown, and caught all six passes thrown his way for 23 yards.
