The Denver Broncos received a nice surprise as mini camp opened Monday. Wide receiver Brandon Marshall, still recovering from an arm injury in March, ran routes and participated in general workouts during practice today. Among those surprised to see #15 strolling the practice field was Head Coach Mike Shanahan: “It’s ahead of what I thought […]

I dug up some additional news on what Jay Cutler has been going through since last season before it was discovered he has Type I Diabetes.  These are tidbits from an AP article I found on the Boston Herald of all places.  Jay says that he had all the classic signs of diabetes and ignored […]

It’s amazing… two weeks ago, drafting a wide receiver in the first round was a “hot topic” among Broncos fans. I intentionally scheduled this discussion for near last for that reason. Needless to say, recent developments have rendered the conversation a little less engaging. But carry on I shall! There isn’t a flashier position on […]

For as long as I can remember Ralph Routon has been the lead sports editor here in Colorado Springs for the Gazette.  Recently Ralph took an executive editor position for our other paper, the Independent or “CSIndy”.  They are more of the anti establishment, anti-gazette paper.  I was never particularly enamoured with Routon’s work at […]

The Denver Broncos are in serious discussions with two free agent wide receivers, the Denver Post reports. The Broncos could sign either of them in the extremely near future. Darrell Jackson, 29, played for the Seattle Seahawks for 7 years before joining the San Francisco 49ers in 2007. In San Fran, Jackson failed to make […]

Jay Cutler responded to criticism he’s received in light of his previous comments about Brandon Marshall. I have to say… I love everything Jay said here. Take a look. “If I would have known it was going to be such a big story and get picked up by the national media like it did, I […]

Slow news day so far this morning… today the DL is a bit of a mish mash, but you understand. The whole John Elway criticizing Jay Cutler thing is getting blown out of proportion too. All Elway said is that he would have done it differently. [Colorado Springs Gazette] Did anybody else catch South Park […]

John Elway apparently doesn’t approve of Jay Cutler‘s disapproval of Brandon Marshall‘s disap… yeah, we’re confused, and pretty tired of it all, too. Just check out the video below for yourself: If you cannot see this video, please visit BroncoTalk with a Javascript-enabled browser! Thanks.

Football Outsiders has another good article up, this time on the AFC West as a whole. I found this nugget particularly interesting: Last season, Cutler threw 496 passes. Of those, 169 were directed at Marshall. Only T.J. Houshmandzadeh was targeted more often. Carson Palmer threw one more pass to Housh than Cutler threw to Marshall, […]
