Jake Plummer remains one of the classiest, and one of my favorite, Broncos of the post-Elway era. Retiring after being benched in the 2006 season, Plummer has been a recluse, avoiding public comment and “enjoying life” playing handball and coaching with his brother on a volunteer basis. So when Vic Lombardi and Gary Miller somehow […]

I’ve always loved Jake. 
 With that love also comes understanding. 
 I understand that sending the bird towards the mile high sky was uncalled for. I understand the grudge he still holds from being benched for Cutler. I understand his lack of enthusiasm to compete with the gaggle of quarterbacks on the Tampa Bay […]

Josh McDaniels has made quite the noise with signings and with the league as a whole. I’m definitely not going to beat a dead horse with the repeating the Jay Cutler story. There are a few ways to sum up Denver’s situation, to be obvious, the defense really needs to be improved. Hiring Mike Nolan […]

I had a friend named Luke who I will probably never talk to again; we were watching a game and at 6:40 he said something pretty prolific, “A pupil is not above his teacher; but everyone, after he has been fully trained, will be like his teacher.” Hmm. That’s been going through my head more […]

Week 12 Denver heads to Atlanta for their first NFC away game this season. It’s no secret that the Falcons handed the Saints a notch in the L column last week. However, how did that happen? Drew Brees finished second to only Jay Cutler in passing yards Sunday with 422, but gave up three interceptions- […]

USA Today gives some major love to our rookie wideout.  [USA Today] Meanwhile, the Sporting News asks Eddie Royal some good questions.  [Sporting News] Ryan Clady was ‘credited’ with half a sack from week seven.  BS.  [Colorado Springs Gazette] Jason Elam is floored that his record stands and gives high praise for Matt Prater.  [CSG] […]

Stefan Fatsis’s book “A Few Seconds of Panic” has revealed several interesting insights into the Broncos organization as they prepared and played in the 2006 season. The Denver Post has been promoting the book by printing sections of it in the paper. The current installment centers on Jake Plummer and his eventual benching. The most […]

Rod Smith… John Lynch…. a season ago, Al Wilson and Jake Plummer.  All 4 team captains from 2006.  Who takes over the leadership role? Brandon Marshall can’t escape a feeling of impending doom.  [DPO] TE Tony Scheffler‘s nagging injuries are the team’s inside joke.  [Rocky Mountain News] More buzz about rookie WR Eddie Royal.  [DPO] […]

Please don’t go haze this guy.  But it’s an example of simple don’t-have-a-clue, not-paying-attention football fandom that’s taking place around water coolers worldwide.  No, Brett Favre will not be a Bronco.  [Velocity Weekly] Can the Packers use the Jake Plummer model to get rid of Favre?  [Thin Air] Former Broncos employee says ‘just trade him […]
