part of the job I guess, Luck said. I mean honestly, people

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. - Both quarterbacks are downplaying Luck vs. Manning III as Andrew Luck and Peyton Manning seek to knock each other out of the playoffs.Theyre 1-1 against each other heading into Sundays tiebreaker that will determine which one gets to play for the AFC championship and which one gets to start thinking about Luck vs. Manning IV next season in Indy.Manning lost his homecoming in 2013 when his emotions and the Colts both got the best of him in Denvers 39-33 defeat that wasnt really that close.He bested his successor in this seasons opener with a trio of TD tosses to Julius Thomas in a 31-24 win that wasnt really that close.If not for Tebowmania, this game might very well have pitted Luck and the Broncos against Manning and the Colts.After a poor start in 2011, the Broncos promoted backup Tim Tebow, and many beleaguered Broncos fans, dreaming of a franchise-changing quarterback, adopted the popular slogan Suck for Luck.The Broncos fell out of the running when Tebow started winning games, guiding Denver to the AFC West title and the playoffs while the Colts wrapped up a 2-14 season with Manning sidelined after neck surgery.The Colts drafted Luck and Manning went to Denver to restart his career. Tebow went to New York for a forgettable season with the Jets and is now a college football analyst for the SEC Network.Since coming to Denver, Manning is 40-12, including 2-2 in the playoffs. Luck is 35-17 and also 2-2 in the playoffs, including a 26-10 win over Cincinnati in the wild-card round last week.Afterward, Luck was asked about facing his predecessor in the playoffs.I think we face the Broncos in a sense. Its not the quarterback versus quarterback thing, he said. Were not on the field at the same time. I have a lot of respect for him, what he does, what he still does is amazing. Hes a stud. Ill worry about the Denver defence, thats what I worry about.Thats pretty much how Manning sees it, too. As hes fond of reminding people, he doesnt really like going down memory lane.He was asked on Wednesday about facing his old team and shrugged it off, noting, Ive been here for three years and this is the third time weve played them.As for the parallels between the passers, Ive never thought much about comparisons, how it affects me, Manning said, and Im sure he doesnt either.However, both quarterbacks realize theyll be linked forever.I guess if youre the first pick of the draft, youre always going to be compared to other first picks. When you play for a team, there are going to be comparisons to other quarterbacks that have played, Manning said.Luck said talking about Manning beats being asked about his beard all the time.Its part of the job I guess, Luck said. I mean honestly, people dont ask me too much about it. Its you guys on the media days, and I would, too. As fans, we love story lines. It seems to be the nature, the sport culture today, so be it.Luck led the league with 40 TD passes, one more than Manning, who threw just three TD passes last month.A year ago, he broke probably every single-season record known to man, Broncos coach John Fox said. It was the style we played and what was best for our team at that point. This year, I think were a little bit different team. Were built different. He was a 12-4 quarterback during the regular season which is I think tied for the best record in football this year.Notes: With S David Bruton and G Orlando Franklin returning from concussions, the Broncos had 100 per cent participation at practice Wednesday for the first time since Oct. 3. LB Brandon Marshall (foot, limited) was the only player who wasnt a full participant.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton Devin Singletary Womens Jersey .
