The most compelling story of the NFL’s Kickoff Weekend unfolds tonight when, for the first time in 20 months, Peyton Manning throws a pass that counts.

Now that he’s a Bronco and not a Colt, Manning, with his surgically-repaired neck, will try to shake off the rust and resurrect a career that already ranks him among the greatest quarterbacks of all-time.

"Everybody in the world is going to be watching,” said Steelers linebacker Larry Foote.

Foote is right about that, although interest in the first "Sunday Night Football" game of the year piques even higher because of the team Manning will face.

That would be the Pittsburgh Steelers, who just happen to have a pretty good quarterback of their own.

“We knew the NFL was going to do that. They were going to schedule the Broncos on Sunday night or Monday night, one of the two, and let Manning play at home,” Ben Roethlisberger said.
