DENVER — Emmanuel Sanders is speedy, not greedy.

The Denver Broncos’ fleet wide receiver insisted he wasn’t lobbying Peyton Manning to throw him a fourth touchdown pass Thursday night.

He was perfectly satisfied with his trio of scoring catches in the Broncos’ 35-21 victory over the San Diego Chargers.

This is exactly what Sanders was talking about when he called Denver “wide receiver heaven” upon his arrival in free agency in the offseason.

“Of course, that’s the reason why I came here,” Sander said. “This is a great organization with a great head coach and Peyton Manning at the helm. I wanted to go to a team that spread the football around, that’s going to throw it, because that’s what I was used to in college.

“I’m just happy to be part of it and hopefully we just keep throwing that football.”

That’s a safe bet.

Less than 100 hours after breaking Brett Favre’s record for most career TD throws, Manning put up another masterpiece. He completed 25 of 35 passes for 286 yards and three TDs with no interceptions and no sacks.

The Broncos (6-1) took early control of the AFC West over the Chargers (5-3), losers of two straight.

“They’re better than us right now,” San Diego safety Eric Weddle said. “That’s the reality of it. It’s a long season. When we meet them again, however many more times, we’ll be better.”

Just last week, Sanders was wistfully wishing to join the list of players who have caught one of Manning’s TD throws. Then, he caught his first Sunday night, when Manning threw four of them in a rout of the San Francisco 49ers.

Now, he’s suddenly his favorite target.

“I feel like on any given night it could be anybody’s night,” Manning said. “I feel like that’s a reason all those guys are playing so well, because they’re all running full-speed routes. We’re trying to get everybody involved. Certainly sometimes it’s going to be one guy’s night over another. But all of them played well and of course Emmanuel was great down there around the end zone.”
