Analyzing the Broncos‘ decisions to trade Alphonso Smith and not extend Champ Bailey‘s contract. Perrish Cox is relishing his opportunity, even if it means an obscene amount of targets. Jets tight end Dustin Keller looks to the be the shorthanded Broncos’ toughest challenge. Even guys that are “healthy” — like Mario Haggan and David Bruton […]

So we had ourselves a football game last week; an old school brawl, the Tennessee Titans gave it their all and then some. Yet they still couldn’t come away with the victory. What people failed to notice is that I came within one point of predicting each teams score the Denver Broncos can probably beat […]

Analyzing player performances from the Denver Broncos‘ 13-27 loss to the Indianapolis Colts Sunday, highlighting the good and the bad. And this week, for the first time in Studs and Duds history, we have a player boasting stud-dud double-duty. Where would you file our up-and-down enigma? Dud: Kyle Orton Realistically, I have to pick Kyle […]

Apologies for the lack of posts yesterday. Our 9-5’s were a bit extra demanding. We return to your regularly scheduled programming today… Kenny McKinley‘s funeral service was held in Georgia Monday. Wesley Woodyard gave a eulogy, saying, “Every day, (McKinley) would come into the locker room and teach 61 men how to laugh and smile. […]

Kyle Orton threw for nearly 500 yards. Not that you could tell from the scoreboard. Orton’s career-high 476 passing yards took the Denver Broncos into the red zone five times, but he and the Broncos escaped with a mere six points, falling to the Indianapolis Colts by a final score of 13-27. Questionable playcalling, sloppiness […]

No one in their right mind (or our comments section) predicted that the Denver Broncos would lose to the Seattle Seahawks. So good job guys, I myself came within seven points of predicting the final score. I also predicted that the Seahawks offensive line would make the Broncos defense look a lot better than it […]

Denver Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey was seen leaving the locker room on crutches following the Broncos’ 31-14 win over the Seattle Seahawks Sunday. Bailey, who intercepted Matt Hasselbeck in the first quarter with a high-leaping red zone catch, told CBS4’s Vic Lombardi that the crutches were merely “precautionary.” Bailey’s backup, Perrish Cox, also hauled in […]

The Denver Broncos‘ second big rookie debut in as many weeks wasn’t as hungered for, but was much more satisfying. Wide receiver Demaryius Thomas reminded the masses why he was selected three spots ahead of superstar teammate Tim Tebow Sunday, exploding onto the scene at INVESCO Field at Mile High with nine catches for 97 […]

Wow! Couldn’t have been more off last week, but who can predict two Ryan McBeans, one Correll Buckhalter and some interesting Winks. Not me, that’s for sure. I came up a little short on my 28-10 (Broncos) prediction last week, but there was at least one of you who got it correct in the comments […]

Shannon Sharpe has taken a leave of absence from CBS while he settles a family violence complaint. Details about the complaint can be found here. Sharpe hasn’t been charged with a crime or arrested, but the retraining order filed against him cites some pretty serious stuff. Clinton Portis insinuated that a pretty female reporter might […]
