dungy now. tony, no doubt peyton manning and the broncos changed the narrative a bit tonight. what impressed you the most? >> well, i have to start with those two guys, chris harris and aqib talib. i thought that denver could stop green bay but i thought it would be pass rush, but it really wasn't. it was those guys in coverage, putting a blanket on the green bay receivers. that's the best job i've seen done on those green bay receivers since i've been in the league. that was tremendous coverage by the defensive backs. then on the other side of the ball, you heard peyton manning talk about the bye week. i've been with peyton before and what he did over that bye was get those receivers and just route after route after route, what they were going to run, the timing was so much better tonight. i've said all along that's what was missing. it wasn't arm strength or age that was doing it, the timing was a little bit off. they got that and they looked tremendous tonight. >> tony, thanks. they also got the running game going, 160 rush yards. that set things up a bit better for peyton on play action.

so we turn from tony dungy to mike florio. mike, just when the steelers get their quarterback back, they lose their star running back. what's the latest on le'veon bell? >> well, you know, bob, the steelers initially were optimistic about that ugly knee injury. they took him to a local hospital, he was evaluated and they thought the acl is intact. the mcl was injured and they were hopeful it wasn't a serious injury. there are now multiple reports it's a badly torn mcl that is expected to end the season for le'veon bell. that will bump deangelo williams up to the starting running back position for a team trying to compete for a wild card playoff berth. also competing for a wild card playoff berth the new york jets. they lost not one but two quarterbacks to injury on sunday. ryan fitzpatrick the starter has torn ligaments in his left thumb, his nonthrowing hand, and then geno smith came in and he has an injured left shoulder and an abdominal injury. it's so bad the jets are actually beginning the process of making phone calls for available quarterbacks during

today's game in oakland, bob. >> wow. and they had had a more or less promising start to the season as well. okay, mike, thanks very much. the final here, as you no doubt know by now, the broncos 29 and the packers 10. al and cris are back to wrap things up from denver after this. hey doug, how'd that discount doubloh, that was great.? double checkedjust, i wish i had before discussing that play earlier. did anybody catch that play? no, nope, no

ok, we're going to act like we're debating about it. you two do the bouncing football thing, you rub your head like it's a tough call, no that looks like you're having a migraine i'm going to break the huddle confidently and we're going to call it incomplete. your mic's on! first down! thank you! 70,000 people were there. 20 million more people watching at home. got it! save big with state farm. ♪ snow day. ♪ ♪ snow day. ♪ snow day. snow day. ♪ snow day. ♪ snow day. snow day. ♪ snow day. ♪ snow day. ♪

touch? tackle. ♪ ahhhhhh! ♪ play fake, wide open luke wilson at the 5, hit by a dwernds at the end zone. he slams in for a touchdown. >> here's the shotgun snap. cassel pumps, he throws down the right side. the seahawks lead and that will do it. seattle holds on by a point. >> meanwhile let's take a look at the nfc east standings right now.

the giants lose a hearbreaker today. brees throws seven touchdown passes, so the east is just a jumble. washington and philly at 3-4, dallas despite those consecutive losses now, five of them, 2-5. still in the hunt. and tony romo they hope they'll get him back by the third week or so of november. so we've got philadelphia and dallas, not what we thought in terms of the standings, but everybody can still win the nfc east and that's our matchup next sunday night. what do you think? >> how much money do you think tony romo is worth right now? this guy has proven -- they haven't won a game without him, right? it's been a rough road here. but the good news is the new orleans saints did the entire division a big favor today in that shootout and so now the giants come back to the pack a little bit. so it really doesn't matter. are we talking about wild card anymore in that division? i don't think so. but somebody is going to win that division and you can foresee the time if tony romo were to come back, they get just hot enough to win that division.

could they make a run? they were one of the favorites in the nfc to start the year. >> al: ain't over. philly has a bye week, demarco murray comes back to dallas. >> cris: there you go. >> al: and we'll be there. final score here 29-10. denver scores the first 17 points and the last 12. great night for manning, great night for denver. they are 7-0. green bay no longer unbeaten. off we go to arlington next week. until then al michaels, cris collinsworth, michele tafoya, heading up this great crew saying good night from mile high city. nbc sports thanks you for watching this special presentation of the national football league.

>> just some of us. we will be looking at a very distinct line. if you have a washington app, look how distinct that line is looking at showers in the fredericksburg area into richmond. that's your first weather headline. showers tomorrow only for some but the d.c. metro area likely will be dry, talking about a heat wave after that. mid-70s on this 7-day. keep this in mind, friday fin h finishing the work week, it will feel a little humid outside and chance of showers in the forecast next weekend saturday as well as sunday. your impact forecast for tomorrow having a low impact on your day. this is why as we track the showers, they're mainly south of the d.c. area. future weather, 6:00 a.m. cloudy but dry start. look at this green at the bottom of your screen impacting parts of northern and southern

maryland around the fredericksburg area, south of the district in the afternoon. only a 20 to 30% chance we see light rain in prince george's fairfax, washington, arlington and points in the afternoon and evening hours. i think we will stay dry in the district throughout the day tomorrow. those showers in southern maryland and fredericksburg could be a pretty rainy day. for most of us, low impact with comfortable temperatures. high in the district of 55 and right now, 57 degrees. a cool but not cold start in this morning, 54 degrees. as we work our way in the afternoon, we notice more sunshine developing and more sun north of the district, temps in upper 60s, high of 65. and 7:00, walking the dog, going for a jog, temperature about 60 degrees and pitch-black at that

point. tuesday, high temperature of 61 degrees and minimize skies. in the afternoon hours, full on sun. if you're heading to the polls, weather, no excuse. temps in the 60s tuesday evening. great after school activities and high of 74 on wednesday. and if you were thinking ofst staying home from work i recommend wednesday or friday this week. on thursday, high temperature of 70 degrees and about a 30% chance you're dealing with a shower thursday and mainly during the morning hours. moving through the midday and mid-afternoon hours that chance drops off. and a chance of showers saturday and sunday. it's not set in stone but i want to update that forecast. temperatures saturday, 67 and 58 degrees next sunday. >> thanks amelia. a very special honor tonight for our own jim vance.

you know, today was just a perfect day to sit down and watch sports, all things sports. >> yes. i'm sitting down watching this football game like you said, i'm thinking to myself, the redskins really have a chance to possibly make the post-season this year. everyone is just bad, everyone in the nfc east. the nfc east is not the worst division in football but a close second. we played eight weeks of football and there's only a combined 12 victories, 8-8 just might get you in the playoffs this year. redskins and eagles were off today and the other half didn't fare too well. cowboys were hosting seahawks. dallas legend on hand 0 see woodson inducted into the hall of fame. russell wilson, this pass gets

tipped and intercepted by greg hardy. that led to a cowboys field goal, dallas goes up 12-10. wilson making up for those mistakes, fourth quarter, critical third and seven here. wilson using his legs to keep the chains alive. he would gain 10 yards on the play and seattle is in business and sets up this field goal from steven housha. seattle wins. and frank beamer saying he's retiring the end of this season. he has the most wins and the longest tenured active coach in the nation. he started in blacksburg in 1987. during that time, he has been to six bcs bowl games and currently on a streak of going to 22 straight bowl games. they're just 4-5 this
