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 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 hey doug, how'd that discount double check work out for ya? oh, that was great. -good. i just, i wish i had double checked 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, r no that looks like you're having a migraine r i'm going to break the huddle confidently r 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. 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. me.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 heart-breaker 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 o 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 amazing grace >> right new a community coming together in grief to remember three lives cut short in a horrific halloween tragedy. >> today you are are my hero. for attempting to save all of my children. >> stories of heroics as victims jump into action to help others when an out of control car catapults on it a sidewalk. >> remember fred thompson, senator, presidential candidate and actor, a look back at his life and career. >> a real nail-biter at citi field. extra innings, mets chase for a championship on the line. >> we start with that halloween tragedy that left three trick or treaters dead. the youngest only 10 years old. >> that's right. tonight hundreds gathered at the crash site to grief. they comforted each other, sang songs and prayed. news 4's michael george joins us from the bronx with more. michael?
