ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Broncos coach Gary Kubiak is sticking with quarterback Brock Osweiler for Denver’s showdown with the New England Patriots next weekend while Peyton Manning continues rehabbing from a spate of injuries.

That means instead of Brady-Manning XVII, it’ll be Brady-Osweiler I when Tom Brady and the Patriots visit on Sunday night.

Osweiler won his first NFL start Sunday, throwing for 250 yards and two TDs with no interceptions in Denver’s 17-15 win at Chicago.

It was the first turnover-free game of the season for the Broncos (8-2).

Manning stayed in Denver to get treatment for rib, foot and shoulder injuries.

The Patriots (9-0) host Buffalo on Monday night.
