The Denver Broncos came up short in their season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs, but they are playoff bound thanks to choking by other teams around the league.
The Oakland Raiders squandered their chance to win the AFC West division by falling to the San Diego Chargers, giving the Broncos the title.
Amazingly, Denver’s .500 record is good enough to host a first-round playoff game against the 12-4 Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Broncos get to face a team that hasn’t been as stiff against the run as usual this year and is pretty beat up. It also helps that it’s a short week and they have to travel across the country.
Denver will still be the decided underdog because of how much Tim Tebow has struggled in recent weeks, but they have a chance to pull off the upset.

The Denver Broncos have decided to keep quarterback Kyle Orton rather than trade him to another NFL team.
The Broncos were in serious negotiations with the Miami Dolphins for quite some time but couldn’t come to any agreement.
It seems that Denver has done a complete 180, now saying that Orton will be their starting quarterback.
Those watching Denver’s training camp have said that Orton has thrown the ball much better than Tim Tebow. ( Read More…)

The Denver Broncos have re-signed veteran cornerback Champ Bailey to a four-year deal worth up to $47 million.
It’s a very surprising announcement considering that Bailey had already put his Denver house up for sale.
The cornerback was angry that Denver pulled an offer off the table earlier in the year and wanted to go somewhere he could win a Super Bowl.
Bailey had a change of heart, which probably had something to do with the uncertain labor situation. ( Read More…)

Denver Broncos new head coach John Fox has not yet made a decision on his quarterback situation.
Rookie Tim Tebow replaced veteran Kyle Orton late in the season and had some surprising success.
Fox was said to be a big fan of Tebow during the draft process, more so than the guy the Panthers drafted, Jimmy Clausen.
Orton still has one year remaining on his contract and was one of the league’s top passers last year until he hurt his arm. ( Read More…)

The Denver Broncos were completely embarassed in a 43-13 loss to the host Arizona Cardinals.
In their first game since the firing of head coach Josh McDaniels, it was clear that the change would not pay dividends.
The Broncos looked just as bad, if not worse, than at any time during McDaniels tenure with the team.
The Broncos committed six turnovers in an embarassing loss to one of the league’s worst teams. ( Read More…)

The Denver Broncos have fired head coach Josh McDaniels after recently giving him a vote of confidence.
The timing is strange given that it is so late in the year and the Broncos hung tough on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs this past weekend.
The team’s owner said that he would consider taking away personnel decisions from McDaniels but that his job was safe.
Firing McDaniels is a killer because of all of the personnel moves the team made that were directives from him. ( Read More…)

The Denver Broncos stumbled after a surprisingly fast start in a 35-14 loss to the San Diego Chargers.
Denver rolled down the field on their opening drive with ease, punching the ball into the end zone.
However, the Broncos stalled from that point on, with the Chargers scoring 35 unanswered points.
The usually crisp Denver passing game appeared totally out of sync, and the statistics reflect that. ( Read More…)

The Denver Broncos came out guns blazing and wasted little time in putting away the Seattle Seahawks in a 31-14 victory.
The Broncos rolled down the field early and often thanks to the accuracy of quarterback Kyle Orton, who threw for 307 yards and two touchdowns.
The Broncos put a touchdown on the scoreboard in each quarter, keeping the Seahawks from mounting any sort of comeback.
The defense also played a strong game, particularly during the first half when they shut out the Seahawks. ( Read More…)

The Denver Broncos have acquired oft-injured running back Laurence Maroney from the New England Patriots.
The Broncos also received a sixth-round pick in next year’s NFL Draft while sending the Patriots their fourth-round selection.
Head coach Josh McDaniels is very familiar with Maroney from his days as offensive coordinator in New England.
With the Broncos running game struggling and a lot of the running backs nicked up with injuries, Maroney provides additional depth. ( Read More…)

After a dismal preseason performance, Denver Broncos quarterback Brady Quinn could be in danger of getting cut from the team.
The Broncos have made it clear that they have special packages installed for rookie quarterback Tim Tebow.
Tebow can’t play in a game unless he is on the active roster, and it’s highly unlikely that the team will keep three quarterbacks.
That means that Quinn has to show some potential and start playing much better for a chance to stick with Denver. ( Read More…)
