BRONCOS vs PATRIOTS Watch Live Stream Online & Listen: Week 12 Live Coverage from Gillette Stadium New England

Tags:

Tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET on Sunday Night Football, live on NBC, Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos (9-1) will square off against Tom Brady and the AFC East-leading New England Patriots (7-3) in NFL action that can be live streamed free here. Broncos fans can tune in to the game on 850 KOA, while Pats fans can hear the proceedings on 98.5 The Sports Hub.

In addition to the greatest rivalry in the NFL between Manning and Brady, Broncos slot receiver Wes Welker's return to New England adds a new, juicy twist to the mix. Welker suffered a concussion last week, but has cleared all medical tests and is listed as probable for Week 12.

"I want to be out there," Welker said. "I mean, there are not too many games I've missed in my whole career and I love playing the game, especially in big atmospheres like this. So, I'm doing everything possible in my power to make sure that I get the opportunity to play in a game like this."

This season Welker's been on a mission to prove New England was mistaken in letting him walk. He's reeled in 61 passes for 648 yards and nine touchdowns which matches a career high. Brady, his partner in crime for many years, is not surprised Welker shook off his head injury for this primetime showdown.

"(Welker is) a tough guy so he's played through everything," Brady said. "This is a big game for both teams so you have to expect their best players. I'm sure all those guys will be ready to go."

Manning had similar words about his new safety blanket. "He loves football. He's a tough guy. He plays through injuries," Manning said. "And those are things that you appreciate about a football player, especially playing in that slot position where he's taking a lot of hits."
