Denver Broncos blog, news and rumors

I debated titling this post A Few Seconds of Panic, but the name was already taken. Tonight Louisiana State University’s phenomenal cornerback/punt returner Patrick Peterson will be dining with the Carolina Panthers head coach Ron Rivera. As a matter of fact John Elway, Brian Xanders and John Fox were not even in attendance at LSU’s […]

If anyone read my introductory article, you will notice that I disclosed the fact that I have dual loyalties when it comes to NFL fandom: the Denver Broncos as well as the Green Bay Packers.

As you likely know (and if you don’t, you live under a rock), the Green Bay Packers recently won Super Bowl XLV over the Pittsburgh Steelers by a score of 31-25. The Denver Broncos, meanwhile, finished 4-12 and hold the number two overall pick in the NFL Draft this coming April.

Since one of my teams is currently at the top of the NFL and the other is dangerously close to the cellar, I figured that now would be a good time to ask:

What can the Denver Broncos learn from the Green Bay Packers?

Not too long ago John Fox said that there was no clear starter yet, clearly that has changed. According the Denver Post, John Fox stated: “It’s a group of three that are very capable. Right now Kyle Orton is our starter. We have a young guy, high draft pick, in Tim Tebow who got his feet […]

There is a rumor going around NFL circles that there is “little support” for Denver quarterback Tim Tebow in the Broncos organization.  Stemming from John Elway‘s comments on Kyle Orton and bolstered by Michael Lombardi‘s NFL.com report, the theory goes that quarterback is a “huge need” for the Broncos as they enter the scouting period […]
