Moreno Named Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week

October 9th, 2009 - 2:26pm by Zach Eisendrath

The NFL announced on Friday that Knowshon Moreno has been voted Week 4′s Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week.

Moreno was a major contributor in the club’s 17-10 win over the Cowboys in Week 4, pacing the Broncos with 14 carries for 65 yards and adding two receptions for 11 yards, including one touchdown, to total 76 yards from scrimmage.

Voters on NFL.com selected Moreno over four other finalists for the award — Dolphins cornerback Vontae Davis, Colts wide receiver Austin Collie, Bears wide receiver Johnny Knox and Browns wide receiver Mohamed Massaquoi.

Moreno leads all NFL rookies with 249 rushing yards this season.

    Moreno is only getting started!! Once he gets going good he will make LT look like an amatuer!

    L who? the man needs no help looking like an amateur….he is a non-factor and has fallen off the wagon. I remember times we used to have to worry about him….now we gotta worry about sproles and sproles is no LT (in his prime). lol…..plus our defense swarms now lol

    I’ll be honest, even as a Denver fan, I won’t vote for Broncos players just because they’re up for an award. I always vote for the guy who made the most significant impact for his team in the biggest game, and this week, Moreno was that guy, no doubt about it. Glad to see he won!

    I voted for you like crazy!!! Congrats!!!

    Congrats to Moreno. Hopefully, since he is carrying the bulk of the load, he will put up some big numbers this game.

    Way to go Knowshan, you deserve it. I’m looking forward to watching you play and winning a lot more awards. Offensive player of the week, offensive player of the month,offensive player of the year, MVP of the Super Bowl,and so on, and so on. It’s going to be great.

    I believe that the Broncos can beat anyone or all of the teams that they will face this season. It would be a lot better if the offense could score at least 20-30 points each game though. LOL I believe that they are probably looking at a lot of film from the Pats-Jets game to see how the defense can get to Brady like the Jets did.

    Broncos 23, Pats 13 Hopefully LOL

    GO BRONCOS!!!!!!!!

    GO DONKEYS…. lol i mean BRONCOS!

    Congrats Knowshon, can’t wait till you get real comfortable out there and just break loose on the league, see you running like you did in college with way better blocking, hopefully you continue playing hard and get that award at the end of the year, and the team get the Lombardi.
