CHICAGO (AP) — Peyton Manning got intercepted near the goal line on the game’s opening possession and watched from the sideline the rest of the night as the Denver Broncos beat the Chicago Bears 31-3 in the preseason opener on Thursday. All eyes were on Manning and the results were mixed for the four-time MVP. Considering he missed all of last season with a nerve injury in his neck that weakened his throwing arm and led to his tearful farewell from the Indianapolis Colts, it was hardly a surprise. Manning is trying to show he still has something left with Denver and on a cool and rainy night, he completed 4 of 7 passes for 44 yards. Jay Cutler warmed up for Chicago but sat out, one day after his fiance Kristin Cavallari gave birth to a boy named Camden Jack. (© Copyright 2012 The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.

There was probably no one more excited for pre-season football to begin again than Peyton Manning. The Denver Broncos quarterback, seeing his first action since the end of the 2010 season, looked very much like the quarterback he had been for his first 14 seasons in the league. Against the Chicago Bears, Manning went just 4-7 for 44 yards and one interception during his only drive on the field but those numbers certainly didn’t tell the whole story for those us watching the game live.
