Broncos vs. Jets 2014 live stream: Time, TV schedule and how to watch online

When Peyton Manning was a free agent back in the spring of 2012, the New York Jets were one of the teams reportedly trying to bring the future Hall of Famer into the fold. Instead, Manning chose John Elway and the Denver Broncos, leaving the Jets to tumble from consecutive AFC Championship Game appearances in 2010 and 2011 to a pair of playoff-less campaigns. Over that span, New York has started Mark Sanchez, Greg McIlroy and Geno Smith. Meanwhile, Denver made the postseason in both seasons since, including a Super Bowl appearance last February.

Manning made history last week, throwing for his 500th career touchdown in the first quarter of a 41-20 beating of the Arizona Cardinals. Manning proceeded to throw three more touchdowns and rack up 479 yards, leaving him five touchdowns shy of tying Brett Favre's NFL record. After throwing a record-setting 56 touchdowns last season, Manning has thrown for 12 scores in four games, so he would have to eclipse his season-average by two to break Favre's record this week.

Considering the Jets defense, this is not out of the question. New York is coming off perhaps the worst game played by any team this season, getting shut out 31-0 against the San Diego Chargers. Philip Rivers tossed three touchdowns, while Michael Vick and Smith combined for 1.8 yards per attempt for New York. Over the past four games, the Jets have allowed at least 24 points per game. At 1-4, the Jets need to turn things around rapidly but will have a tough time doing so with the Broncos on deck followed by a road game in Foxboro against the New England Patriots.
