Manning's 2 TDs leads Broncos past Chiefs, 17-9

Peyton Manning threw for 285 yards and two touchdowns, and the Denver Broncos rallied to beat the woeful

Kansas City Chiefs 17-9 on Sunday for their sixth straight win.

Manning hit tight end Jacob Tamme late in the first half and

wide receiver Demaryius Thomas in the third quarter, and that was

more than enough to overcome three field goals by the Chiefs' Ryan

Succop as Kansas City lost its eighth straight game.

Knowshon Moreno added 85 yards rushing for the AFC West-leading

Broncos (8-3). Moreno got the start in place of Willis McGahee, who

went on injured reserve this week with a knee injury.

Jamaal Charles ran for 107 yards for the Chiefs (1-10), who

failed again to punch the ball into the end zone. They still

haven't scored a touchdown since the first quarter against

Pittsburgh on Nov. 12, a span of more than 11 quarters and 173

minutes of game time.
