    For all those hoping that Sanders fell on his face this season after comments about Manning being better than Ben those hopes took a steep nose dive on Saturday. Sanders had 5 catches for 128 yards and two TD's after the Bronco's lost Wes Welker to a concussion. His 67 yard catch for a TD also prompted Manning's taunting penalty as the QB seemed to have finally had enough of Texans DB D.J. Swearinger's trash talking throughout the week and game. Swearinger was responsible for the head shot that knocked Welker out of the game. With Welker out Sanders got it going and started to click with his QB. Yes it is preseason and Sanders could return to his ball dropping problems but I wouldn't count on it.
