Q3 15:00: Green Bay will receive to start the second half. Denver trails 28-17.

Q3 14:59: Prater’s kick goes through the end zone for a touchback. On first down, Aaron Rodgers completes over the middle to Jermichael Finley for 16 yards. Rodgers completes to Jordy Nelson for another first down with another 16-yard gain. Rodgers is then sacked by Von Miller, his second sack of the day. On second-and-13, Rodgers’ pass is incomplete for Finley. On third-and-long, Rodgers completes to James Jones for an 18-yard gain and a new set of downs. James Starks is pushed out of bounds by Elvis Dumervil for no gain on first down. Finley then picks up 3 yards. On third down, Rodgers pass is incomplete for Greg Jennings, but pass interference is called, giving Green Bay a first down. Rodgers completes to Nelson for 8 yards on first down and Starks is stopped for no gain on second down. John Kuhn then dives forward for a first down. On first-and-goal from the 9-yard line, Rodgers is tripped up from behind by Von Miller after a 1-yard gain. On second down, Rodgers scrambles again and is stopped at the 1 yard line. Green Bay is challenging the ruling on the field that Rodgers was stopped short of the goal line.

Mile High Salutes and Lambeau

September 30th, 2011 - 3:02pm by Willis McGaheeOther posts by

Saw a lot of you talking about the Mile High Salute, which I’ve done after my touchdowns so far this year. That’s something I’m going to do every time I score a touchdown. That was a spur of the moment thing, and now I’m going to be consistent.

I saw Terrell Davis do it back in the day. That’s the good thing about running backs, we watch other running backs and there’s a lot of things I can learn from what T.D. did.

This weekend, people keep asking me about us being the underdog. We really don’t look into it, and really don’t even care about it.

It’s a great chance to turn things around, to get a win in Lambeau against the Super Bowl champs.

I think it would be a real eye-opener for everyone.

Disappointed, But Ready for Sunday

September 29th, 2011 - 5:37pm by Rahim MooreOther posts by

Whenever you lose there’s always a lot of woulda, coulda, shouldas. I was disappointed because of how hard we worked throughout the week and our gameplan was perfect. I just hate losing. I’ve lost before in my career, and it’s not fun.

But how hard we took it just shows how much this team wants Ws. Whenever you play a sport like this, especially with the coaching staff we have, you should expect to win. One thing about individual accolades — sure, you can look good. But when you win, everybody looks good. Our main job is to make Coach Fox look as good as he is. That man deserves wins. He’s, what, the third active coach in wins? We want to get him to number one.

I’m going to tell you one thing about sports. When you play on the road, it shows you how much you really can do. It shows your ability. When you play at home, you feel comfortable. When you’ve got to play on the road in a hostile environment, that brings the most out of you. I love road games.

Broncos Roster Filling Up

September 28th, 2011 - 5:20pm by Kenny LeganOther posts by

While the beginning of the season saw the Denver Broncos lose many key players, for the second week in a row, the team is getting healthier.

Cornerback Champ Bailey and defensive tackle Marcus Thomas returned to practice on a limited basis Wednesday. It marks the second straight Wednesday the Broncos got a significant boost in their practice participants as linebacker D.J. Williams, defensive end Elvis Dumervil, running back Knowshon Moreno and receiver Brandon Lloyd all practiced last Wednesday after missing at least the previous game.

Bailey hasn’t practiced since injuring his hamstring in the season opener against the Oakland Raiders, and Thomas hasn’t practiced since suffering an injury in mid-August.

“You feel a little more comfortable in the fight when you have all your troops with you,” Head Coach John Fox said. “They were a welcome addition for sure.”

September 28th, 2011 - 4:57pm by Max HensonOther posts by

For the first time this season, the Broncos are preparing to play a team from the NFC as they’ll head to Green Bay for a meeting with the defending Super Bowl champions Sunday.

The two teams last squared off in Denver during the 2007 season, and it’s been 8 years since the Broncos last stepped foot on Lambeau Field.

In a conference call with the media, Packers Head Coach Mike McCarthy acknowledged the challenge the Broncos present with a new coaching staff and a revamped roster since the teams last met.

Edge Discipline

October 4th, 2010 - 4:03pm by Gabe HiattOther posts by

It’s not about how much bigger you are, how many more weights you can lift or how high you were drafted.

According to Robert Ayers, stopping the run in the NFL is about sheer grit.

“Being sound against the run is a mindset,” Ayers said. “It’s not about talent and having a bunch of guys that are good players. It is about having a physical, tough mindset.”
