The Colts had two reasons why they released Manning.
1. His salary cap number would have left the Colts unable to sign additional players.
2. The Colts want to clean house and start from scratch. They have released multiple players from the Manning era (Dallas Clark, Reggie Wayne, Melvin Bullitt, to name three) and want to basically "blow up" the roster and build a new one behind the quarterback they hope to draft.
Peyton Manning is out for the season due to neck surgery he had during his off season after the 2010-2011 season. Peyton was expected to be ready for the 2011-2012 season but will be out the whole season.
The first touchdown in the game came after the Colts kicked off to the Bears and Devin Hester returned it 92 yards for a TD. The first receiving touchdown came when Reggie Wayne hauled in a 53 yard pass from Peyton Manning with 6:50 left in the 1st quarter.
The NFL does not Disclose that type of information.
