Forward Progress

Through his first nine games as a pro, Knowshon Moreno’s versatility has surfaced early and often.

No rookie has recorded two 100-yard games from scrimmage — except for Moreno. He’s also set himself apart through the air, as the lone NFL newcomer with both a rushing and receiving touchdown this season.

Moreno turned in a career-high 97 rushing yards against Washington on 18 carries. Week by week, the rookie is improving in an area the Broncos stress to their backs — gaining yardage on every play.

“There were some plays where there wasn’t much there, but he didn’t go negative,” Head Coach Josh McDaniels said. “He went, got a yard, got a two-yard gain here or there and kept us in positive situations. That is something that he’s doing better and better as the year goes on.”

Harris Ruled Out for Monday Night Matchup

November 2nd, 2009 - 3:09pm by Zach EisendrathOther posts by Zach Eisendrath

Speaking with the media on Monday morning from Dove Valley, Head Coach Josh McDaniels said that starting tackle Ryan Harris will not be available for Week 9’s Monday Night Football matchup with the defending Super Bowl-champion Pittsburgh Steelers.

“I don’t know the whole entire prognosis,” McDaniels said. “I am meeting with Greek (Head Athletic Trainer Steve Antonopulos) here as soon as this is over, but he will not play this week.”

Harris left Sunday’s 30-7 loss to Baltimore in the first quarter with a toe injury. He was replaced for the remainder of the game by Tyler Polumbus.

Singletary’s 49ers, let’s GO!!

August 13th, 2009 - 8:36pm by mark_cooperOther posts by mark_cooper

Hi all,

Don’t know if it’s me or my tech skills but I haven’t been able to see the post or responses to the last post that had Mondono on the cover with a nice fish. Hopefully you can tell me after I post this.

NINERS tomorrow and it looks like Harris is in good shape and I’m excited to see what we put on the field. Full compliment of running backs and some (ALMOST) ALL new faces on D.

I never get to excited but this years going to be like watching a new team all together. I don’t know about you but I almost have that weird pre-game nervousness to how we do.

Here’s my overview. IF we can stay healthy and Coach McDaniels delivers what I think he is going to deliver, we control the ball and keep the defense off the field and we win more than we don’t win. (never use the L word).

What do you think? Am I losing it or are you with me? I have to go with Mondono’s (TIME OF POSSESSION) mantra more this year than ever.

Go Broncos!!

Training Camp Day 1: P.M. Blog

July 31st, 2009 - 9:32pm by Zach EisendrathOther posts by Zach Eisendrath

Day one of training camp has come to a close. The Broncos completed their first evening practice on a brisk night at Dove Valley, lasting just over two hours.

After enjoying ideal conditions for the morning practice — warm temperatures with a bit of shade — temperatures dropped considerably for the p.m. practice. Still, for the most part the weather again cooperated, as the team managed to avoided the rain that fell at Dove Valley for much of the afternoon.

Here are some tidbits from the team’s second practice of the day:

Moving Forward

THE SHOW MUST GO ON

Even though the Broncos fell just short of the postseason, it’s still playoff time in the NFL, and that means that players, coaches and fans are excited.

The Broncos’ excitement is certainly tempered, by Brandon Stokley said he can’t help but to watch some of this weekend’s matchups.

“I am a football fan,” he said. “I love football. I love watching the playoffs. I will be cheering for Indy.”

Stokley used to play for the Indianapolis Colts, and it doesn’t hurt that they’re going up against the San Diego Chargers.

Jay Cutler, on the other hand, said his TV won’t be tuned in to any playoff football.

“I won’t watch them,” he said. “No interest in it.”

Youth Always Gives Hope

November 11th, 2008 - 10:09am by jim_saccomanoOther posts by jim_saccomano

The Denver Broncos of 2008 have been hit by injuries like few teams in recent memory.

It has been unusual, to say the least, to watch the number of players on the Broncos’ injured reserve list reach double figures.

But you have a schedule, and you have to keep playing, and every time a player goes down it gives an opportunity to another, and in this case, a younger player.

Denver’s young player’s contributions have been tremendous this year, and couple those efforts with the team’s first place standing in the AFC Western Division and you get bright promise for future seasons.

Marshall Votes, Bell Plays and Harris Wants a Sandwich

November 4th, 2008 - 6:28pm by Jake GrilleyOther posts by Jake Grilley

People across the nation are heading to the polls today to make their voices heard, casting their votes on who they want to be the next president of the of the United States of America.

Proud to Vote

First-time voter Brandon Marshall got up extra early today to join the fray.

“I got up actually at 5 a.m., came in, caught a few balls and ran a little bit,” he said. “Then I headed to the polls pretty early.”

Marshall said submitting his ballot was an exhilarating feeling.

“It was great,” he said. “I enjoyed it, it was exciting and I recommend to everybody who hasn’t voted to go out and do it — have a voice.”

A.M. Blog: Day 11

August 5th, 2008 - 12:04pm by Adam ZinserOther posts by Adam Zinser

After a record-setting streak of days with the temperature above 90 degrees, Tuesday morning brought a much welcomed cool front. When I heard over the radio on the way to Dove Valley that the high was predicted to be 82 degrees, I laughed.

Thankfully, they were right. The players (and I) enjoyed temperatures in the low 70s throughout the morning camp session. And now for quick hits from practice.

ATTENDANCE REPORT: Hamza Abdullah remained on the sideline, nursing his strained groin. Peyton Hillis, after making it back onto the field yesterday morning, sat out again. Chad Mustard and Tom Nalen remain out with a right hamstring and left knee, respectively. Montrae Holland continues to work on his own, though he later came out and watched from the sidelines. He looks slimmer to me.

Champ Bailey also missed practice with a sore right hamstring. Bailey spent his time watching from the sidelines with teammates or on the field talking with Head Coach Mike Shanahan. But don’t worry Broncos Country, Shanahan quickly pointed out that No. 24 is a quick healer.

First Depth Chart Released…

August 4th, 2008 - 8:16am by Adam ZinserOther posts by Adam Zinser

The team has just officially released the 2008 depth chart. Though things may change over the course of the next few weeks, it provides a glimpse of who will be taking the field on Sundays.

Of note, Ryan Harris starts at right tackle. Not too much of a surprise since he took most of the reps thus far in training camp.

Darrell Jackson holds the number two WR spot across from Brandon Marshall.

Cecil Sapp starts at fullback.

Marcus Thomas will now line up with the ones at defensive tackle.

Nate Webster has taken over the starting MLB spot.

Hamza Abdullah and Marlon McCree take on the starting strong and free safety roles, respectively.

Sam Paulescu and Matt Prater are tops for the punting and kicking duties.

Eddie Royal is the top return man on both punts and kickoffs.

Check out the entire depth chart here.

Let us know what y’all think about this!
