Tale of the Tape

December 29th, 2010 - 3:47pm by Gabe HiattOther posts by

Tim Tebow attracts a crowd wherever he goes.

Whether he’s in Arizona — where the away crowd chanted his name even though he spent the game on the sidelines holding a clipboard — or at INVESCO Field at Mile High, you can bet the eyes of thousands are trained on the rookie quarterback.

With two NFL starts under his belt, Tebow will have another group of observers leading up to this weekend’s home game against the Chargers. San Diego’s coaching staff will devote a fair share of their week dissecting game tape of Tebow as they develop their game plan.

“I think we have an advantage over what Houston had,” Chargers Head Coach Norv Turner said in a Wednesday conference call.

Leonard Added to Active Roster

December 29th, 2010 - 9:39am by Gabe HiattOther posts by

With one game left on the schedule, Denver’s roster is still evolving.

The club placed linebacker Lee Robinson on injured reserve and signed defensive lineman Louis Leonard to the active roster to take his place.

Leonard is a fourth-year player who appeared in one game for the Patriots and two games for the Panthers this year, notching two tackles for Carolina. He also appeared in two games for Carolina last season, posting 11 tackles and a sack before being placed on injured reserve with an ankle injury.

He will wear No. 94 for the Broncos.

Hey Broncos fans!

It’s Janelle, a 3rd-year veteran and I’m so excited after that awesome game Sunday! What a wonderful way to take a huge step in a positive direction with an exciting game and Tim Tebow’s first starting win!

That Winning Feeling

December 28th, 2010 - 10:05am by mike_riceOther posts by

I don’t care how it happened, against whom it happened or any of the circumstances around the fact that it happened.

I am simply glad the Broncos experienced that winning feeling again.

After five straight losses and nine losses in the ten previous games, the Broncos just needed to win a game. And they did. Let me take a moment to exhale.

Ahhhhh. Nice. It’s good to remember what a Broncos’ win feels like. I had nearly forgotten what a Broncos win felt like, even if at least some of the players had not.

Making a Stand

December 27th, 2010 - 2:32pm by Eric DetweilerOther posts by

In their last two fourth quarters coming into Sunday’s game against Houston, the Broncos had been outscored 40-13. Denver reversed that trend in a 24-23 win by coming up with the contest’s final 14 points to complete the comeback.

A day later, Interim Head Coach Eric Studesville pointed to his defense’s ability to get off the field with key third-down stops as one of the big factors in helping to complete the come-from-behind win.

Houston went just 1-for-8 on third-down conversion attempts in the game with quarterback Matt Schaub tossing an incompletion on the Texans’ only fourth-quarter attempt. That play forced the punt that led to Tim Tebow’s go-ahead touchdown run.

Another Start, More Records

December 27th, 2010 - 10:51am by jim_saccomanoOther posts by

It has been awhile since Broncos Country has this much electricity running through it based on the play and potential of one single player.

But the power plant fueling Broncos fandom is on overload today due to the play, potential, charisma and electricity of quarterback Tim Tebow (journalistically, it is appropriate to state his position before his name in a story’s first reference, but I do not think there is a fan in America who does not know Tebow is a quarterback).

I shall leave it to others to argue and debate the growth and development which his potential will reach; as I said last week, no one can predict the future.

A New Swing on Things

December 26th, 2010 - 10:42am by cheerleadersOther posts by

The Denver Broncos Cheerleaders have been perfecting a new style of dance to incorporate into game day routines–swing!

For the past three weeks, each cheerleader has been working with a partner to learn two complex routines. In addition to adding a completely new dimension of grueling exercise to our practices, adding the dance partners has also added some zest to our regular schedules.

Clady Receives Ed Block Courage Award

December 24th, 2010 - 10:52am by Gabe HiattOther posts by

Ryan Clady stands six-and-a-half feet tall, weighs more than 320 pounds, and has an even bigger heart.

On Friday, Interim Head Coach Eric Studesville announced Clady as the recipient of this year’s Ed Block Courage Award for the Denver Broncos. All 32 NFL franchises recognize one player who exemplifies a commitment to sportsmanship and courage for the award selected by his teammates.

“It’s definitely an honor to get this award,” Clady said. “I worked hard during the offseason to get where I am now and I’m definitely blessed to be in the position I am.”

Mile High Momentum

December 22nd, 2010 - 3:54pm by Gabe HiattOther posts by

For the past three weeks, the Broncos have tread a rocky road full of pot holes. Consecutive business trips to Kansas City, Arizona and Oakland all added losses to the team’s record.

But they have the luxury of spending the holidays at home. The team finishes their schedule with a two-game home stand, including a matchup with the Houston Texans on the day after Christmas.

Mario Haggan hopes to find a little Mile High magic in front of the home crowd.

“It would be great to come home in front of our fans right after the holidays and have some holiday cheer on Sunday and go out and play a great game,” Haggan said.

Looking For Some D

December 21st, 2010 - 5:37pm by mike_riceOther posts by

I understand why Tim Tebow’s first NFL start grabbed the headlines last Sunday. Undoubtedly this week, Tebow’s second career start will dominate much of the discussion and analysis after the game.

If I knew today that Kyle Orton or Tim Tebow or someone else would be the starter next season, I would be fine with that, as long as the “someone else” were at least decent.

The Broncos’ quarterback situation is not my number one concern. Not by a long shot.
