Special-teams coordinator Tom McMahon says it's "100 percent on me."

"Saturday, I definitely want to be able to go out and play fast and just not think about anything,” Sutton said.

Only one team has allowed more combined kickoff- and punt-return touchdowns than the Broncos in the last two years. They hope their Day 3 picks can change that.

On Tuesday, Fangio spoke to the media to wrap up the 2020 season and about finding the right replacement for Elway. Here's what we learned.

The Broncos learned their lesson.

The Broncos know what they have to do. They just have to commit to it. But at least they have a viable template now — which is more than they could say before Sunday.

If the Broncos win Sunday, give everybody a game ball.

“We’ve had too many negative plays in the kicking game this year," Vic Fangio said. "We’ve got to do a better job of covering."

That’s the number of offensive plays Janovich has had in two regular-season games and the preseason loss at Seattle. In between, Janovich missed…...

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — You can’t blame Broncos coach Vic Fangio for trying out the league’s new ability for coaches to use instant replay to challenge calls regarding pass interference. But after one attempt at challenging a call in the preseason opener in Canton, Ohio on Aug. 1 and another in last Sunday’s loss in Green Bay, Fangio is 0-for-2. Then,…...

Isaiah McKenzie put last season behind him. He wants to show Broncos Country that he can be one of the best returners in the league.
