Quarterback Peyton Manning, who threw seven touchdowns in Denver’s opener, tossed another three on Monday night, as the Broncos routed the Oakland Raiders 37-21 at Sports Authority Field. |
The 37-year-old American has the most touchdown passes through the first three games of the National Football League season with 12.
“You see flashes of good things,” said Manning who hasn’t thrown an interception so far. “When we are executing and not making mistakes, you can go the distance.”
Manning became the first quarterback in 51 years and sixth overall to throw seven touchdowns in a game in Denver’s opener against the Baltimore Ravens. He had two passing touchdowns against the New York Giants in week two.
Manning was 21-of-24 for 264 yards and three scores in the first half against the Raiders. He finished 32-of-37 for 374 yards for Denver.
The Broncos improved to 3-0 on the season and have outscored their opponents 127-71 this season. Eric Decker caught eight passes for 133 yards and a touchdown, while Wes Welker grabbed seven passes for 84 yards and a touchdown for Denver.
The Broncos are winning on the field but they have problems off it. Star left tackle Ryan Clady was put on season-ending reserve Wednesday after suffering a foot injury in the win over the Giants.
