While all four teams in the AFC West have named a starting quarterback, the San Diego Chargers are the only group with a quarterback situation completely devoid of controversy (VOLEKTRICITY fans, argue if you will). The Broncos, of course, are waist-deep in fan and media speculation involving Kyle Orton and Chris Simms. The Raiders have […]

After being a healthy scratch from Monday’s PM practice, talk of bombshells, and another denial to a new contract, there were heavy rumors that the Broncos and Brandon Marshall could be headed for an “ugly standoff.” Consider that standoff pending – Marshall was in attendance during the team’s practice Tuesday. So, for the time being, […]

It was more of the same in Broncos camp Monday. Brandon Marshall‘s agent met with the front office again to request a new contract for his client. They were denied. In response, Marshall’s agent requested a trade. Again, they were denied. Why the continued stubbornness from the Broncos in light of Marshall’s recent exoneration? Mike […]

UPDATE: This was as much of a non-story as I though it might be. After Jamie Dukes teased a “BOMBSHELL” on his twitter, the entire NFL media was eagerly awaiting a revelation. The story? A PR snafu involving the way teammates were instructed to react to Marshall‘s acquittal. Dukes, yagottabekiddingme. Sure, this is significant given […]

Nothing against the Chargers linebacker, but a different AFC West team may be boasting the most appropriate owner of Shawne Merriman‘s “Light’s Out” nickname: Tom Cable, Head Coach, Oakland Raiders. The National Football Post reported Monday that Raiders assistant coach Randy Hanson was injured in an altercation between he and another unspecified coach. Meanwhile, NFL […]

Is the national media really recognizing and praising the Denver Broncos offensive line? Nah, it couldn’t be, not after Ryan Clady was robbed of last year’s Pro Bowl and still has a Madden player rating lower than Jake Long‘s. Don’t look now, but that’s exactly what ESPN has done, ranking all 32 teams’ offensive lines […]

The Denver Broncos‘ front office has continued to tweak the roster since the team’s exhibition debut Friday, most recently releasing defensive lineman Rulon Davis, Head Coach Josh McDaniels said after practice Monday morning.

UPDATE: PFT reports “Fox’s Alex Marvez has the terms: The Broncos acquired reserve defensive end Le Kevin Smith and a 2010 seventh-round pick from the Patriots in exchange for Denver’s 2010 fifth-round selection.” According to Rotoworld and Adam Schefter the Broncos have now acquired former Patriot DL Le Kevin Smith. Smith has played three seasons and […]
