Broncos Nominated for Weekly Awards

November 22nd, 2011 - 10:37am by Stuart Zaas

The Broncos are up for a pair of weekly awards following the team’s 17-13 win over the Jets in Week 11.

Linebacker Von Miller is nominated for the Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week Award after posting a team-high 10 tackles, 1.5 sacks, three tackles for a loss, one forced fumble and four quarterback hits against the Jets. Miller leads all NFL rookies and ranks fifth among all players with 9.5 sacks this season.

Fans can vote for Miller until 10 a.m. MST on Friday. The winner will be announced on NFL Total Access on NFL Network and on NFL.com on Friday.

In addition, the Broncos game-winning 95-yard dive in the final minutes against the Jets has been nominated for the GMC Never Say Never Moment of the Week Award.

The award is given for the best moment or play of the week that represents determination and perseverance.

The Broncos won the award in Week 7 for their come-from-behind victory over Miami as well as in Week 11 for their late touchdown to seal the win at Kansas City.

Each week’s winner will be stacked up against the 16 other Never Say Never weekly winners at the end of the season to determine the GMC Never Say Never Moment of the Year. At the conclusion of the regular season, fans can log onto NFL.com/gmc to vote throughout January for their favorite Moment of the Year among the 17 candidates.

    I mean, I personally love Tebow as our starting qb. Just saying, one way or another, trading this guy will bite us in the ass.

  2. BeastFromEast92 says:

    The 6 million dollar man should be able to run about 60 mph outta Denver,lol.

  3. strandoftds says:

    We won`t know the true situation about our QB until the 2012 draft. I don`t see us drafting a QB until the mid rounds of the draft.

  4. gabeharter says:

  7. BeastFromEast92 says:

    Wherever he goes next,the fans will be wanting some,and that’s a Helluva deal…LMAO!

  8. alexanserg says:

    That stuff is obsolete now Bay. No market left. haha

  9. Yovi21 says:

    Can teams even pick players up anymore? I thought free agency was over?

  10. Bronco_Turtle says:

    Thanks Gabe… I like that very much…

    Bay… Funny

  11. alexanserg says:

    not on this blog at least :)

  12. baylinorcrush says:

    Yeah, I’ll move my business in whatever town signs him.

  13. BeastFromEast92 says:

    Only question is,how many bottles does it take to work,I think you used like 100 bottles,but that equals 99 bucks,not bad!lol.

  14. alexanserg says:

    lol

  15. royalbroncofan1 says:

    If monodono is right… KO could land up back in the windy city!

    Best wishes to Kyle Orton.

  16. Orange_Crusher says:

    I just got done doing some heavy duty Irish jigging and now I’m out of breath…whew!

    The Jay Cutler Band-Aid has finally been removed, the wound has healed over and we can finally quit hearing about Orton’s stats…..! Yay! The Ortonites have been defeated!!!!!

    Dear KO, thank you for making it perfectly clear that you hated all of the Bronco fans as much as we hated you… sayonara, hasta la vista, bye-bye apple pie, don’t trip over the stairs on your way out, and thank you so very much for absolutely NOTHING.

  17. strandoftds says:

    It could be Houston.

  18. baylinorcrush says:

    Once a guy is waived he is available for whoever wants him, it’s only players under contract that are traded, Orton is free man.

  19. TheHorseWhisperer7 says:

    So we just waived Orton, and of course I can’t find anywhere if well get any draft picks or anything out of it.

    Can somebody give me some info on the situation??

  20. BeastFromEast92 says:

    LMAO@OC!!!!!!

  21. Bronco_Turtle says:

    LOL… Crusher that is funny as well…

    Long live VON TEBOW FOOTBALL!!! :o )

  22. BeastFromEast92 says:

    The Broncos are free!!!!!!!!!!!!

  23. alexanserg says:

    OC, did I miss something? How did Orton make it clear he hates the bronco fans?

  24. TheHorseWhisperer7 says:

    And, can we select which team can get him?, because i wouldn’t want him going to Chicago or KC because we play both teams still this year.

  25. strandoftds says:

    No trade, only cut.

  26. alexanserg says:

    no draft picks or anything will be coming our way for orton. We waived him. Fired him. Cut him. All basically the same thing.

    He is in the same boat as people like T.O. at the moment

  27. Bronco_Turtle says:

    In this time of thanks we must acknowldge KO and McD for blessing us with the ineptitude to Land VON MILLER in the Draft and the pure Dumb Luck of blessing us with TT…

    Many Thanks you wonderful boobs…

  28. BeastFromEast92 says:

    alex,Orton made it very clear he didn’t care about the fans,just saying!

  29. TheHorseWhisperer7 says:

    AND of course I can’t find this out either:

    We get a conditional pick in this years draft from Peyton Hillis. Does anyone have any idea what round pick we’ll get from him?

  30. brian_schneider says:

    We already know how to counter Orton so him going to a team we play isn’t that big of a deal.

  31. baylinorcrush says:

    Whisperer, it’s over we get nothing we can’t ask for nothing Orton is a free man who can go where he wants, it’s over for nada.

  32. baylinorcrush says:

    Compensatory picks are decided during the draft.

  33. TheHorseWhisperer7 says:

    So waiving him is just a fancy way of saying your fired, gotcha

  34. gabeharter says:

    Do you sell Orton-b-gone by the gallon?! i would like a whole lotta that. Bronco turtle…. it seems all analysts miss those stats about Tebow. only passing percentage matters to analysts and it seems john elway. but john elway is a smart guy if tebow keeps winning i think he will back tebow and help him with mechanix during the off season. So it seems to me Tebows fate is in his hands. i kind of like it that way.

  35. TheHorseWhisperer7 says:

    Yeah but baylin, would we get a 2nd round pick for Hillis or a 7th round pick? i can’t find this stuff anywhere

  36. baylinorcrush says:

    LMAO @ Brian again!

  37. brian_schneider says:

    I’ve got a case of Tebow-B-Gone..wait what I meant Orton-B-Back..whoops, I mean Orton-B-Gone..

  38. alexanserg says:

    Oh you mean the quote about “thank god the fans don’t make decisions,” and “i’m not worried about winning over the fans.” and all that.

    I know what you mean now.

  39. strandoftds says:

    We should soon find out who we sign, Weber or bringing in another player. I`d bring in another CB or S.

  40. brian_schneider says:

    Orton only cared about winning and I honestly can’t blame the guy..

  41. TheHorseWhisperer7 says:

    At least kyle orton didnt force his way out of our franchise like jay cutler did, kyle orton handled himself as a professional while he was here, jay cutler didnt. of course the cutler situation had more to it with mcdaniels, but still thats the way i see it

  42. BeastFromEast92 says:

    Agreed strand…a CB or RB.

  43. baylinorcrush says:

    You won’t, it’s not decided yet and won’t be til draft time, thought I just said that.

  44. gabeharter says:

    hey random Q. but does anyone else think we need a playmaker @ reciever? i think we have some talent with decker and royal but i have seen to many dropped passes. i hope it will become better as the offence adjusts to tebow and he improves passing.

  45. strandoftds says:

    True!

  46. BeastFromEast92 says:

    Orton was happy riding the pine,he got 6 million bucks this year,why would he gripe,he knew he would be gone at the end of the season anyway,but I agee he didn’t whine about it!

  47. strandoftds says:

    Another RB would be nice.

  48. baylinorcrush says:

    Tebow has a problem getting the ball to the WRs we’ve got so I seriously doubt more WR would make any difference.

  49. TheHorseWhisperer7 says:

    baylin i guess these compensatory picks obviously just makes no sense to me, id just think we’d know ballpark whether were gonna get a 1st rounder or a 7th rounded for the guy is all im sayin

  50. gabeharter says:

    BFE92 and bay i have always enjoyed reading these blogs and love hearing your veiws! just started posting… just wanted to say i have followed broncos blogs for awhile and you guys have been ryte on about alot of stuff.
