Super Bowl victory In 2014, the Broncos attempted to return to the Super Bowl and win. They beat Manning's previous team, the Indianapolis Colts, and then defeated the Kansas City Chiefs. Their week 3 game was billed as a Super Bowl rematch against the Seahawks. The Seahawks seemed to have the game won in the fourth quarter, however Manning led the Broncos on a late-game comeback to tie the game 20–20. Ultimately, however, the Seahawks were the victors with a 26–20 win. Later on in the season, Manning threw for his 509th touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers, the most by any NFL quarterback in NFL history. Denver finished the season at 12–4 and at first place in the AFC West, but lost in the divisional round of the playoffs in a rematch against the Colts, who would go on to lose to the Patriots in the AFC Championship game. The Broncos and head coach John Fox mutually decided to part ways following this season, and Gary Kubiak was hired to replace him.

However, the day's celebration was hollow as Manning was intercepted four times and ultimately benched during the game in favor of backup quarterback Brock Osweiler due to injury and a decline in performance. Osweiler helped the Broncos to five wins in seven starts in relief of the injured Manning, including overtime triumphs over eventual playoff teams Cincinnati and New England. Manning returned to the lineup during the final week of the regular season, helping the Broncos rally to a victory over the San Diego Chargers. A Patriots loss to Miami coupled with the Broncos' win, allowed Denver to enjoy the AFC's top seed and home-field advantage for the playoffs. Denver defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 23–16 in the divisional round and got a second victory over the Patriots in the AFC Championship game by the score of 20–18. The Broncos' victory was sealed when cornerback Bradley Roby intercepted a
