In his first game as the Denver Broncos quarterback, John Elway had issues with where he lined up on the field, and was relieved repeatedly by Steve DeBerg in the Broncos 2-1 start. Coach Dan Reeves named DeBerg the starter after that, with Elway soon returning after a DeBerg shoulder injury. An inauspicious start with Elway’s tail-kicking, in what would…
The Broncos were without a team president for less than 48 hours.
Here’s why new President Damani Leech is exactly what Greg Penner and the new ownership were looking for.
The Denver Broncos have had a countless number of legends play for them over the years.
But if you had to choose just one in his prime to add to the 2022 squad, who would it be?
Once Russell Wilson calls it a career, will he be the Broncos' all-time leading touchdown passer?
He'll need 300 to top John Elway.
It won't be easy, but it's doable.
“Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off they’re making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that’s the difference.” – Lou Holtz It actually took John Elway a few Super Bowl trips to get the combination right, to be fair. It took Mr. Bronco until his fourth (and fifth) tries…
Much like Peyton Manning helped John Elway lure free agents to Denver, Russell Wilson's presence in Denver will help George Paton land top talent from around the NFL.
In fact, he's already doing it.
Russell Wilson wants to play 10-12 years as a Denver Broncos and win three to four more Super Bowls.
That would put him on the Mount Rushmore of all-time great NFL QBs.
And truly believes it's possible.
“Defense wins championships” is no longer how the Denver Broncos are being built.
Instead, George Paton is building a balanced team, with Russell Wilson leading the way.
The Broncos are being constructed like a modern-day Super Bowl contender.
Teddy Bridgewater was an incredible value in 2021.
But that’s the issue.
Since Peyton Manning, the Broncos have tried & tried & tried to go the value route at QB. It doesn’t work.
It’s time for a massive investment at the QB position.
"He's tall" used to mean something when it came to the Broncos' evaluation of QBs. Under Nathaniel Hackett and George Paton, it doesn't any more.
Nathaniel Hackett's bringing sexy back.
He's bringing fun back.
And he's bringing deep bombs from John Elway to Ed McCaffrey back. Or at least the 2022 rendition.
George Paton has waited over 25 years to lead his first head coaching search as a general manager in the NFL.
And despite this being his first search, he knows exactly what he's looking for.
Will Vic stay or will Vic go?
Breaking down the case for George Paton to bring Vic Fangio back for a fourth season as the Denver Broncos' head coach and the case to move on from him.
Riding a four-game losing streak with the trade deadline quickly approaching, should George Paton and the Broncos try and turn this season around by acquiring a player or two or begin building for the future by trading players away?
After nearly a month without a win, Vic Fangio isn't concerned about losing his job. Instead, he's worried about doing his job better to get the Broncos back on track.
By Tuesday afternoon, George Paton and Vic Fangio must narrow down the Broncos' roster from 80 players to the final 53.
Here's who is projected to make the final roster.
George Paton destroyed his former team.
His quarterbacks balled.
Paton's first-round pick and second-round pick shined.
Nobody had a better day than George Paton on Saturday.
It was the f—ing Penguin that was screwing with me. No, not the Penguins. Not the Pittsburgh Penguins. Not them. Not a rogue Denver Zoo runaway from the Aviary. No. THE Penguin. Batman’s second-worst arch enemy. That son of a bird had been f—ing with my eight-year old self all summer long. Pepsi had put out a set of collector’s…
