Denver Broncos blog, news and rumors

Just when we thought the Denver Broncos were getting healthier. On Wednesday, veteran safety Brian Dawkins did not participate in practice, joining tight end Daniel Fells on the sideline.  The usual MIP (missing at practice) Broncos all sat out again, receivers Demaryius Thomas (finger) and Eddie Royal (groin) were joined by tight end Julius Thomas […]

You can be a Denver Broncos fan, and you can be a Florida Gators fan, but this is no hybrid. To be clear, I have nothing against fans of the Florida Gators and I’m sure there are legitimate Bronco fans out there that also happen to be Gator fans.  But the Florida fans that have […]

After running a relatively slow […]

The Denver Broncos are 14-point underdogs against the pass heavy Green Bay Packers this week.  Of course, there was another Packers/Broncos match a few years ago in which Denver was 14-point underdogs and won.  [Youtube] The Broncos defense — particularly their secondary — was playing a lot better back then, as Denver’s defense hasn’t played […]

Last week, the Denver Broncos worked out several running backs but each back left unsigned.  Denver may want to consider giving another running back a look. The Houston Texans on Tuesday released former 2008 third round draft pick Steve Slaton, a running back that played collegiate football at West Virginia.  As a rookie, Staton lead […]
