If you’ve visited NFL.com in recent days, you may have noticed a DirecTV ad on the site’s sidebar which features Broncos QB Peyton Manning.  When did Manning have plastic surgery? He didn’t, but his neck scar does not appear in the ad.  DirecTV, advertising their NFL Sunday Ticket package, either snapped a shot of a […]

No electricity? No problem. Peyton Manning can still deliver. The veteran signal-caller was faced with a short-circuiting dilemma during the Denver Broncos‘ stadium scrimmage Saturday. As the offense faced 3rd and 6 from the nine-yard line, technical difficulties prevented Manning from getting the play call from offensive coordinator Mike McCoy.

On Saturday evening, running back Curtis Martin was among six former NFL players enshrined into the league’s Hall of Fame class of 2012.  While Martin, who spent time in New England and New York, had a brilliant career, he never won a Super Bowl or rushed for 2,000 yards in a single season.  Terrell Davis […]

The Denver Broncos are holding their fourth annual stadium scrimmage practice at Sports Authority Field at Mile High today. The event kicks off at 3:50 p.m. MT (details here), but you may want to get there early. As in, now. I’ll be covering the practice from the press box, as pictured above. Follow BroncoTalk on […]

The Friday before the Denver Broncos‘ Saturday scrimmage saw the team meet for its eighth training camp workout, a scorching hot affair that benefited from a merciful blanket of clouds halfway through. In a way, that weather pattern mirrored the Broncos defense: they were scorching hot at first before succumbing to Peyton Manning‘s offense later […]

As a friend recently reminded us on Twitter, in Broncos Country, Josh McDaniels‘ surname is a four-letter word. The sound “McDaniels” is fingernails on the chalkboard, a teeth-clinching, shoulder-buckling, neck-hairs-standing-on-end reminder of the worst two-year period in franchise history. Four digits that claw at the brain with nearly the same intensity are 2-0-0-9: McDaniels’ first draft class […]

Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos again drew a record crowd Thursday morning, the seventh full practice of the Denver Broncos’ 2012 training camp. Over 5,000 fans and media were present to witness the emergence of Demaryius Thomas and the continued near-perfection of Peyton Manning. Let’s break it down. ROLL CALL Absent: S Quinton Carter (hamstring and […]

Peyton Manning to Eric Decker. Through the first several practices of Denver Broncos training camp, it was clear the two had a connection deeper and more natural than that of any other tandem on the field. Decker was Manning’s favorite target, and the quarterback and receiver connected for several highlight-worthy plays over the course of […]

In one week, the Denver Broncos will kickoff the 2012 preseason when the team travels to Chicago to take on the Bears on August 9th.  Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. (MT). The game, broadcast on KTVD-TV Ch. 20, will mark Jay Cutler‘s second preseason game against Denver and Peyton Manning‘s first game as a […]

The Denver Broncos predicted the weather would make their 2:20 p.m. practice impossible, so they moved it up four hours and closed it to the public. It turned out to be an inspired, even clairvoyant move: the clouds opened up with rain and lightning just as Coach John Fox and company concluded practice at 1:15 […]
