The book on Lock is only on chapter—or even page—two. But the differences from the prolog—i.e. Drew’s college days—and where he is now are drastic. And that’s why Drew Lock’s hot start shouldn't be considered fluky anymore.

Fangio had some thoughts on how to prevent a .500 team from hosting a 12-4 team in the playoffs. Then Andrew Mason took the baton and went further.

A locked-in Lock, that’s what Drew’s saying the Broncos are getting this week. So far, so good in the eyes of Vic Fangio, too, as Drew’s head coach said he’s handled the week full of hype well.

BOULDER — Before the No. 24 Colorado Buffaloes took on the Northern Iowa Panthers at the CU Events Center Tuesday night, Buffs head coach Tad Boyle laid out the defensive gameplan.

The most important point Boyle tried to make was that Colorado had to take away Northern Iowa's 3-point attempts. The next most important point was to take away offensive rebounds.

Those were the keys to victory.

Then, in the first six-and-a-half minutes of the game, Panthers forward Austin Phyfe pulled in four offensive rebounds.

"That's hard to do," Boyle said after the game. "That might be an NCAA record."

With three games left, and less than a one percent chance of making the playoffs, most of the attention in Broncos Country has turned to looking at the future. And so far, Drew’s given plenty of hope for that outlook. But Vic Fangio's not entirely sold jsut yet.

Kareem Jackson’s 11 total tackles, three defended passes, one interception, one tackle for a loss and one touchdown earned him one of two game balls after the game from Fangio. But there was one play hidden among that eye-popping stats that not only set the tone for this game, but brought an entirely new mentality to the Denver Broncos.

Ah, how much can change in just two weeks.

Can the Broncos' first road win with Lock as a starter be the launching pad of something great?

I took a job a few years back where I had to follow the “rock star”, stepping into a role that the person before me had created. She had defined it, and it had come to exist because she had shown the company the difference she could make in doing it. Stepping in behind her felt like stepping in for…...

Denver's offense consistently starts well, but fades fast.

The good news is Von’s feeling better each and every day. The bad news is with 72 hours until game time, there appears to still be a significant amount of doubt in Von’s mind for whether he’ll be ready to play on Sunday. The ugly news is there’s no sign Sunday will be the last time this impacts whether or not he plays.

DENVER — On Jan. 22, 2019, I sat in the hallway of the Rennaissance Hotel in downtown Mobile, Alabama, where a narrowly-set press conference had been set up. A few minutes after the presser was set to start, a kid by the name of Drew Lock made his way to the podium. With a look that suggested he had just…
