The last time Peyton Manning was quarterbacking an NFL team, True Grit was topping the American box office. (Granted, it was the 2010 remake, not the 1969 original, but you get the idea.) “Tighten Up” by The Black Keys topped the rock charts. Call of Duty: Black Ops was dominating gamers’ televisions. The Colorado Rockies […]

This was the Peyton Manning that Denver Broncos fans have been waiting for. The doubters who found a voice after Peyton Manning struggled in his first two preseason games in a Denver Broncos uniform have been silenced. Manning was nearly perfect in Week Three against the San Francisco 49ers. The 36-year-old looked to be in […]

The hit everyone was waiting for never happened. Left tackle Ryan Clady would rather be penalized than see Peyton Manning get zinged during the Denver Broncos‘ first preseason game. “Peyton gets creamed or I take a 10-yard penalty?” Clady asked rhetorically [via Mike Klis]. “Peyton gets clobbered or I maul this guy?” The answer was […]

From Rick Reilly’s piece last weekend — While everybody in Denver squirms waiting to see whether Manning’s four-times-operated-on neck will hold up when he gets hit hard for the first time in 19 months, Manning himself can hardly wait. “I’d like to get it over with,” he says. “I really would.

Peyton Manning to Eric Decker. Through the first several practices of Denver Broncos training camp, it was clear the two had a connection deeper and more natural than that of any other tandem on the field. Decker was Manning’s favorite target, and the quarterback and receiver connected for several highlight-worthy plays over the course of […]

60 yards, 70 seconds, seven points. That was the situation the Broncos gave quarterback Peyton Manning. Move down the field 60 yards, score a touchdown in under 1:10, or lose the game. It was Manning’s first chance in training camp to execute his legendary two-minute drill. Manning did not disappoint. Here’s the breakdown: 1st and […]

At the start of camp, rookie quarterback Brock Osweiler was buried down the Denver Broncos depth chart, watching veterans Caleb Hanie and Adam Weber take more snaps and enjoy more opportunities in front of him as the second and third quarterbacks, respectively. That was fine with the ASU alum. Osweiler wasn’t trying to advance up […]

Remember when we told you on Thursday that quarterback Peyton Manning earns $10 million annually by endorsing Reebok, Sony, Wheaties, DirecTV, Gatorade and Papa John’s?  Add Buick to that list. The above footage is a little bit of a behind the scenes look at a new 2013 Buick Verano commercial featuring Manning that will air on […]

Forget Madden video game covers, our favorite quarterback is on the cover of a cereal box. Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning appears on the Wheaties boxes being sold in Colorado, according to our friends at Bronco Planet.  The box, with Wheaties’ fittingly orange background, shows Manning in workout attire with a football in hand. This […]
