Peyton Manning and Joe Flacco were awful rusty in their season debuts, each of them throwing a pick-6 in Denver’s 19-13 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore had a chance to take the lead late in the game when Flacco threw an interception in the end-zone to Darian Stewart.

Broncos’ kicker Brandon McManus was a perfect 4-for-4 for field goals with his longest kick at 57 yards. Manning’s arm looked like a wet noodle while Flacco didn’t get his usual heave-and-hope plays for defensive pass interference calls with Torrey Smith now gone.

Also, remember how Terrell Suggs went after Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford’s knees in the preseason and said everyone needed to learn the rule book when they called him out on it? He’s done for the year with an Achilles tear because karma. So there’s that.
