We're not getting another installment of Tom Brady vs. Peyton Manning after all.

Denver Broncos quarterback Brock Osweiler will start his second consecutive game this coming Sunday when the Broncos face the Patriots in Denver.



With Manning still dealing with a foot injury that could keep him out longer than this coming week, the Broncos turned to Osweiler in hopes of jump-starting an offense that was anemic under Manning. That was mostly due to the fact that Manning was anemic himself.

Not that Brady wasn't going to not finish with a better overall head-to-head record, but if this rivalry is indeed over, Brady will finish with an 11-5 record against Manning.

Against the Chicago Bears yesterday, Osweiler completed 20 of 27 passes for 250 yards and two touchdowns.
