Noteworthy notes today… Jarvis Moss is okay after quite a scare yesterday morning. The MRI on his left knee returned negative, and the impressive first round pick will work to return to the field as early as this morning.

An infamous game in Broncos history I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I love the NFL Network. Lately you get the feeling that our “real” rivals in the AFC West are the Chargers – but historically, the Broncos have the least reasons to hate our San Diego foes. It’s the Raiders […]

The Kansas City Star reports that the Chiefs and Broncos, bitter AFC West rivals, are talking trade. I mentioned in yesterday’s AFC West Watch – Secondary post that Safety Greg Wesley was disgruntled, and now it seems my #4 ranked secondary is willing to make my #1 ranked unit even better.
