Denver Broncos blog, news and rumors

John Lynch and the Denver Broncos have agreed to part ways. While it’s disappointing as fans to see a favorite player go, it’s an inevitable step in a 16-year NFL career. Had Lynch not asked for his release this year, he likely would have retired the next, so let’s discuss less what the future has […]

What seemed like a happy-go-lucky anecdote on the team’s official blog Tuesday actually has me a bit concerned. Brandon Marshall took off his right shoe Tuesday, and ran several drills to end the afternoon practice with only his left shoe. At first glance, it’s nothing to sweat over. Just another comical display of personality by […]

Ramsey is currently Cutler’s backup. (AP Photo/David Zalubowski) The backup quarterback spot is never the most-watched battle in camp. It’s not the flashiest competition, and its result rarely has a large impact on the field.

The good news is that Brandon Marshall isn’t letting his off field theatrics affect his on field performance. Several reports from this morning’s practice indicate that he excelled today, breaking two long touchdown catches of approximately 80 yards and 35 yards respectively. The Broncos need his talent on the field, plain and simple. He’s a […]

Denver Broncos right guard Montrae Holland finally saw the practice field yesterday afternoon during the team’s 2nd session jog through. Apparently the experience was short-lived: Holland was held out of practice again this morning to work with strength and condition coach Rich Tuten. His struggles to lose a reported twenty pounds have earned him the […]
