Ten days after placing him on Injured Reserve, the Denver Broncos reached an injury settlement with Brandon Stokley Tuesday, the Denver Post reports. The agreement moves Stokley off the Broncos’ Reserved/Injured list, making him a free agent. Stokley suffered a groin injury in August that knocked him out of three of the club’s four preseason […]

Kyle Orton didn’t know what was happening, but he was suddenly losing the focus of his teammates on the field. Blue and white jerseys were suddenly taking flight around him.  It took the quarterback a few moments, but he finally caught on — an ice cream truck had driven onto the field, and his teammates […]

The Mothership encourages you to vote for Brandon Stokley‘s Immaculate Deflection for […]

Brandon Stokley is an awesome example of everything that is good in the NFL. He’s a big team-player, a hard worker and great role model for the younger generation. This email from Matt in Pittsburgh hit our inbox the other day and has stuck with us since, for two reasons — first, Matt’s son is […]

Brandon Stokley‘s insane 87-yard catch-and-run was the longest game-winning play in the last minute of a 4th quarter in NFL history. [ESPN] “Luck” doesn’t quite do it justice; that play was a miracle.  [Denver Post] Not that there’s anything wrong with that. [Rice Takes] An inside peek at the somber Bengals locker room after the […]

Are you? Brandon Stokley‘s catch set a few records, both NFL and personal. (Watch it again.) It is the longest game-winning play in the last minute of a 4th quarter in NFL history. It is now the longest completion of Kyle Orton‘s career at 87 yards. It is also Stokley’s career long, quite remarkable considering […]
