  • Bruised ribs is the unsurprising diagnosis for Tim Tebow, who suffered the injury during Sunday’s last play on a helmet-first tackle from Bengals linebacker Abdul Hodge.  His availability for Saturday’s preseason game is unknown.
  • Tebow’s feet may be his X-factor, but the rookie still needs to master pocket passing to keep defenses honest. And to stay healthy.
  • Wednesday practice report: “Having (Jarvis Moss) back there was big,” Mario Haggan said. “It was definitely the biggest difference in the two-minute drive.”
  • Woody Paige says it was a mistake for the Broncos not to go after Brian Westbrook, who just signed with the 49ers. Presuming he’s healthy, we agree.
  • The Broncos may get Knowshon Moreno back next week.  Correll Buckhalter may still return this week.
  • Pro touchdowns are few and far between for the current crop of Broncos’ receivers.
  • Life without Marshall ain’t so bad through one preseason game.
  • Looking at some potential roster bubble surprises.
  • Marcus McNeill met with Chargers brass, although no headway on a contract appeared to be made.
