Manning throws two picks in loss

''Both of them are just fine with me,'' Manning said.

As the ball sailed out of bounds, Manning popped right back up and the crowd went wild.

''We weren't worried about it. I think everybody else was,'' Stokley said. ''Now, we don't have to hear about that anymore.''

Instead, they can concentrate on all the mistakes they've been making with Manning under center.

Manning played the first half and gave the Broncos (1-1) a 10-9 lead despite three turnovers, including an interception in the red zone for the second straight week, and another at midfield on a bad overthrow.

He looked great on a 2-minute drive, but that stalled when tight end Jacob Tamme, his old pal from Indianapolis, dropped a wide-open touchdown pass 6 seconds before halftime following a drop by Eric Decker and a 15-yard penalty on center J.D. Walton.

''Well, we moved the ball well,'' Stokley said. ''We had a good 2-minute drive going and we kind of shot ourselves in the foot with the 15-yard penalty. So, we did some good things and then we did some bad things, so you've just got to be glad it's preseason and not the regular season.''

Terrell Owens had a disappointing debut for the Seahawks (2-0), failing to catch any of the five passes thrown his way.

Owens is trying to show he's fully recovered from a knee injury that kept him out of the NFL for the entire 2011 season, but in his first NFL game action since Week 15 of the 2010 season with Cincinnati, he was out of sync with quarterback Matt Flynn.

Flynn targeted him five times. The first was behind him, the second was over his head, the third was knocked away by Elvis Dumervil and then cornerback Champ Bailey broke up a slant pass.

The fifth incompletion was all on Owens.

He sped past cornerback Chris Harris on a deep post and was wide open to haul in a perfectly thrown 46-yard touchdown pass from Flynn but it slipped through his fingers just as he raced across the goal line.
