Strand Lewis is my favorite player ever even though he never was a Bronco
My favorite non Broncos player is Polamalu.
The 49ers scored another TD, up 27-13 with 2:11 left in the game.
Still ridin them dirtbikes RH ? Yeah me too. Got to take a gate with Ryno Hughes last summer didn’t see much of him after the start cept when he lapped me. Sorry about the wrist hope it heals fast and right.
Poor Cardinals this game cannot end fast enough for them.

Howdy y’all! Giants are blowing out the Saints! I’m sure PFM is proud of his little bro even if he did throw a couple of picks! Manning vs Manning SB scenario still alive and well. Congrats to Shanny and the Skins for helping us out in the seeding process!
Yeah S72. Still riding. Hughes would lap me four times lol
I feel your pain RH, I rode my 650R this past month to my neighborhood post office and made a detour to the back forty. Bad decision, broken nose, sprained wrist and loss of much pride. My daughter said “Dad, you’re too old to be getting face planted” She’s probably right.
Sorry to hear that Wolfe. Broken nose sounds painful.
I posted my glori hid above. Crash is around 3:30
Hey Cam, long time no see bro. ROCK N ROLL!!!
Checked out the vid RH got off pretty hard. My YouTube handle is usedknobby2 left a comment.
Hey Strand! ROCK ON BRONC ON my Bronco Bro!
Thanks 1972. I started swapping and it was all over. Got hucked backwards onto my @$$. Ill have to check out you vids.
Glad you’re up and at em. You know know if you ain’t falling, you ain’t riding. S%@ happens.
Stuart, this is my favorite weekly blog! Thank you!! <3
Thought before bed: GO HOUSTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Props to Cassius Vaughn!!! Pick 6 for the Colts today!!!
I stumbled upon this, and thought it appropriate to post today, given NE plays tonight. Why Tom Brady is NOT clutch:

I’m happy for Vaugn, good for him.
Hi Strand it made me smile when I saw the replay!

This has some good stats; from Legwold at the Denver Post
And the DP forgot to mention that they have not allowed a single sack when Kuper is on the O-line. I bet Kuper plays on Sunday.
Strand two sacks have been allowed with Kuper in the game. But 17 without him.
Did you guys see where 12 of the 19 have come against the 3-4?
Good game coming up tonight!!! I’m actually excited about a Non-Bronco Game for the first time in a long time
Yea BT I saw that. Not really surprised. Manning has always struggled with the protections against 3-4.
I can’t wait for Sunday either! Ed Reed was my favorite defensive player for the last 10 years before Von came and took that Title! I really like how Miami Hurricanes produce in the NFL… When I think about it it makes me really miss Sean Taylor (possibly the hardest hitter in the league since the Night Train)
Quick question about this upcoming offseason. I have seen mocks having us take a Safety in the first round. Does anyone think we need a safety? Especially that early?
Personally I dont. Moore has stepped up and improved not only from last year to this year but fron the first few games to the last few games. Carter showed a lot late last year but with him being on IR we of course havnt seen anything this year. As for Adams to me he is defiantly the weaker of our two starting safeties but he has been solid this year. Not good but not bad either. I would love to wait and see what Carter and Moore can do (If they are both the starters) next year before saying we need a safety. I guess im more against taking a safety early. Maybe one in the mid to late rounds wouldnt be bad for depth but we also have Bruton and Ihenacho on the PS. I just dont see the need for one in the first three rounds.
After seeing how the Falcons have played the last few weeks. I really think had we not played them week two but sometime in the middle of the season that we wouldve been able to win that game.
AB! my vote is still to Take some BEEF in the first Round… I don’t care if it’s OL or DL so long as we grab one of each in the first couple rounds… I like the Safety from LSU but not for a first round selection for sure
Lot’s of skill players available in FA and with Peyton as a draw, we should be able to take our picks (and if he decides to play for less than 15% of our Salary Cap maybe we can have our choice of two!!!)
The fact that we will have played NE, Houston, and Baltimore in the regular season bodes well for us come playoff time. Whether we win those games or not the first time is irrelevant, since Peyton is one of the most cerebral QB’s of all time. Once he sees first hand what you got, he will expose you the second time..
BT Yes they safety I see a lot of is Vacarro (sp?) Texas or Reid from Florida.
And I agree BEEF lol but I want it on the DL. A guy who can push the pocket and keep the QBs from stepping up in the pocket.
All of our DTs are FAs. Unrein is a ERFA Bannan Vickerson and Bannan are all just normal FAs.
I guess Silliga is the only exception.
If we go OL im with Strand about Barrett Jones from Bama
Looking at the opponets we have next year I dont see how we can have less than 4 or 5 TNF SNF or MNF games (Houston Giants Patriots Ravens and maybe Cowgirls of Turkey day) Plus multiple other national televised games.
Oops guess we might not have Ravens next year. Thought I saw somewhere we would. My bad.
Oh and the Colts game. Especially since it looks to be at Indy as of right now.
We have the AFC North Champs AB… probably will be the Ravens!
Yea BT. Hopefully we can get them at home for a change. (if in fact it is them im not counting out the Bungles just yet)
Don’t sleep on Siliga, I have a feeling Del Rio will develop him into a Samoan Beast!!!
Sorry the safety from Florida is Elam not Reid. BT got me thinking about Reid who is the safety from LSU lol
The Safety I like is Elam from Florida. I doubt we go there in the 1st round, I wouldn’t.
I have that feeling with you OT. But right now he is the only DT we have on roster next year. Which is why I think we need on with our first pick next year.
I wonder if we go heavy in FA with players wanting to come play with Manning, and we trade our 1st round again to get a few key positions for depth. We might get a big name RB, WR, and DE for starts. We have quite a few avenues to go. Just an idea. what do you all think?
You guys see that Cameron was fired as OC of the Ravens… I bet we see alot more Ray Rice this week!!!
Lol the mock I was just looking at had us taking Elam in round 2 then Montee in the 3rd
Ray Rice… MEET the CRUSH!!! ORANGE that is!!! what a horrible week for him to start packing the load, he will hate life next monday
Strand I was actually looking at those positions for FA. Cliff Avrail is a FA. SO is Dwight Freeny which I didnt realize. Thought he had another year after this one.
BT really? Thats good. He wanted Flacco to lead the offense and didnt like playing offensively through their run game.
We might draft Tyler Eifert TE from Notre Dame. I can see that happening actually.
See you guys this afternoon… I’m gonna go get a load of Trees
Morning Turtle & Alaska!!!
Just saw that the Ravens replaced OC Cam Cameron with Jim Caldwell after their 2nd straight loss. Lucky for them Pitt and Cincy lost yesterday as well!
I wonder if Lewis and Suggs will suit up. If they do, how effective can they really be. Gonna be a huge game. Still miffed its a noon start. Lol
Go Kubiak and Dennison…
Broncos Country Strong 2012!!!!!!!!!!
Strand Im against drafting a TE right now lol to me Tamme and Dreesen have been doing whats asked of them so far this year. But an explosive TE like Hernandez Gronk of Jimmy Grahen would be nice.
See ya BT.
I think we resign Vickerson. He has played much better once he put on weight, and he’s only 29 years old.
