The Associated Press has announced its 2012 NFL All-Pro team, and it features four Broncos — two on each side of the ball.
Quarterback Peyton Manning, tackle Ryan Clady and linebacker Von Miller earned first-team honors, while cornerback Champ Bailey made the second team.
Manning and Miller garnered their third All-Pro nominations of the year after being selected by Sports Illustrated and Pro Football Writers of America earlier in the week. Manning broke franchise records in nearly every single-season passing category during his first year as a Bronco. Miller became the club’s single-season sack king in Week 16, finishing with 18.5 sacks on the year.
Clady earned his second All-Pro nomination. He was also selected as a PFWA All Pro. The Pro Bowl tackle opened all 16 games for the fifth consecutive season and allowed the fewest sacks in the NFL (1.0) among 16-game starting tackles.
Bailey draws second-team All-Pro honors after earning his 12th Pro Bowl selection, the most of any defensive back in NFL history. The 14th year cornerback intercepted multiple passes for the fourth consecutive season and posted his highest tackle total (66) since the 2009 season.

Congrats to Manning, Clady, Champ, and V. Miller on being making the ALL PRO TEAM!! RAD STUFF!!!
All I want for an early birthday present is a Broncos win today.
All I want for a late birthday present is a Bronco win next weekend.
Almost here!! Does anyone think we will trade down to get Teo? I know his draft took a little hit from the bcs gams but the dude is still a baller and we need a young MLB. I also see us taking a DT. thoughts?
GO BRONCOS!!!
I was very high on Te’o but have come done. Dont see the worth to trade up to get him. The hit he took was a big one. Before he was a top 10 pick. Now many are speculating if he will even be a 1st well its more if he should be a 1st rounder.
That will be a nice birthday present AB!
I dont see how this Ravens offense will be able to handle our Defense or even keep pace with ours. Lets take Ray Rice out of the game and force the game to be on Flacco and watch the offense crumble.
I think we’ll be up by 3 scores at half time!
Strand they have to make it past this week (As I expect them to) I dont want to wait till next season to actually be able to drink a beer while watching my Broncos.
We’ll take care of business! No worries!
It was sure cool to talk to Tennessee last night. I’m glad!
Point spreads and hunches and “shoulds” are nothing more than that … I believe the game will come down to turnovers, ball control, red-zone offense, and special teams (returns and punts/kickoffs inside the 10 yard line) … if we win most of those battles, I think we will win … but it’s a football, it bounces funny sometimes, and we just have to stay on top of things … above all – NO FUMBLES ON PUNTS AND KICKOFFS …
The return game is going to be an interesting one. Each team has really good return games.
Stay focused and EAT GREEDY BRONCOS!
1 hr. 34 min. – already locked in!!!
I mad that I’m sitting at home while I’ve got so many friends at the game in Denver!!! Arrrggghhh!!!
Happy Game Day Broncos Country!!!!
It’s almost time for the official Ray Lewis retirement party!!
Rock on Bronc on!!!
Go Broncos!!
C
Rock On Bronc On CAM!! ENJOY BRO!!
MILE HIGH WILL BE FILLED WITH FANS AS LOUD AS TNT!!!!
Rock on Bronc on, Strand! Hope your doing good bro!
I hear the temp in Denver is like 18F right now. Nice thing that PFM has been using a glove in prep for this type of a scenario.
Even if our passing game does struggle I think we have a team with the ‘nuts and bolts’ to still dominate. We shall see!
Go Broncos!!!!!!!
Cam – they just said that it is 13F right now – it was projected that they would be 18F at kickoff. Now they are backing away from that.
BTW – that is an Bronco playoff record -
DB-
That’s pretty chilly. Should not be a problem as long as the wind is not a huge factor. If we can even scrape off a win in this weather without any injuries I think we should be able to take care of the Pats next week.
I really don’t think the Texans have much of a chance. You never know of course.
Prediction: Winners this weekend; Broncos, Packers, Seahawks, Patriots.
55 min.!!!
Hey Daddy – I had my cataract surgery … still some fuzziness at distance, but “re-hab” is going good … the doc was very satisfied … I’m just happy I’ve got vision, and I can WATCH THOSE BRONCOS DOMINATE!!!!!!!
My surgery was at St Judes in Fullerton … a GREAT doctor … pays to get the best – ask John Elway!!
The only one that should be debated is GB. I think A. Rodgers is the best QB on that field – but the GB team is too unbalanced. Niners are more well rounded…
So…what I think will happen…
Broncos, Niners, Seahawks, Patriots
What I hope happens…
Broncos, Niners, Falcons, Texans
Wieman, I grew up in Fullerton. Congrats on the surgery, eyesight is a precious thing. BRONCOS ALL THE WAY!!
Hey WieminCA – That is so great to hear. WHATEVER it TAKES! Hang tough!
I’m outta here! ENJOY YALL!!
Live blog is up everyone.
Chump Bailey for Hall of Fame
hey Champ might have got beaten a few times…….but to call him a chump is unlike a Broncos fan you Chump!!!!!!!!
bb66…..you are the Chump!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PFM and Champ both had bad games,but when you give up 38 points on Defense you expect to lose!!!!!!!!!!!!!
