COIN TOSS: The Broncos call heads — and it’s tails. Tennessee wins the toss and elects to defer. So the Broncos will receive to start the game.

KICKOFF: After a touchback, the offense is now on the field, led by Kyle Orton at quarterback. Ryan Clady, Zane Beadles, J.D. Walton, Chris Kuper and Orlando Franklin make up the offensive line. Brandon Lloyd and Eric Decker are at receiver. Daniel Fells is at tight end, Spencer Larsen is at fullback and Willis McGahee is at running back.

Q1 14:27: Two runs by McGahee gain a total of 5 yards, leaving Denver with third-and-5 at its own 25-yard line. Orton takes the snap in the shotgun and quickly finds Decker for the first down on the sideline.

Q1 13:27: After the 8-yard gain, the ball is at the 33-yard line. On first down, Orton fires toward Decker as he is hit in the backfield, and the pass falls incomplete. Second down brings a run for no gain by McGahee, and now it’s third-and-10. Orton barks out some instruction at the line before dropping into the shotgun. He takes the snap, steps up in the pocket and fires to Lloyd in the middle of the field, but the pass is incomplete and Britton Colquitt is in to punt. Colquitt keeps up his hot start, booming a punt that’s fielded at about the 5-yard line — a 62-yard punt, officially — and returner Marc Mariani is dropped at the 11-yard line.

Q1 12:14: The starting defense is now on the field. Brian Dawkins and Rahim Moore are the safeties, Andre’ Goodman and Cassius Vaughn are at cornerback, Wesley Woodyard, Joe Mays and Von Miller are the linebackers and finally Jason Hunter, Brodrick Bunkley, Kevin Vickerson and Robert Ayers make up the defensive line.

COIN TOSS: The Broncos call heads — and it’s tails. The Titans will receive to start the game.

Q1 15:00: Matt Prater is ready to kick off, and he booms it midway into the end zone, where Tennessee’s returner whiffs when trying to field it, and it bounces out of the back of the end zone for a touchback. The defensive starters are on the field — Perrish Cox and Champ Bailey are at cornerback, Renaldo Hill and Brian Dawkins are at safety, D.J. Williams, Mario Haggan, Jason Hunter and Robert Ayers are at linebacker and Kevin Vickerson, Jamal Williams and Justin Bannan are on the line.

Q1 14:43: After an incomplete pass on first down, Chris Johnson takes a carry on second down for a gain of two. On third-and-8, Vince Young lines up in the shotgun. He finds a receiver, but it’s a yard short of the first down, bringing out former Bronco Brett Kern to punt. Deep to receive is Eddie Royal. He doesn’t quite get ahold of the punt, and the Broncos will start at their own 43-yard line after the 28-yard punt.

Q1 13:10: A loss of four on a run by Laurence Maroney is the first offensive play of the day for the Broncos. The starters are Kyle Orton at quarterback, Ryan Clady, Stanley Daniels, J.D. Walton, Chris Kuper and Ryan Harris — making his first start of the season — on the offensive line, Maroney at running back, Jabar Gaffney, Brandon Lloyd and Royal at receiver and Daniel Graham at tight end.
