The Denver Broncos have fired Coach Josh McDaniels. After going 5-17 in his last 22 games, McDaniels was finally shown the door. Despite unlimited potential as an offensive-minded coach, McDaniels struggled to get consistency from his group, despite turning Kyle Orton into an above-average league quarterback in 2010. McDaniels’ accomplishments on offense can only be [...]

Denver Broncos LB DJ Williams has been stript of his captaincy and will not start Sunday following an arrest for DUI on Friday. Williams was also fined the maximum amount possible by the team, which along with the other punishments, sends quite a message to the team. It’s unclear how long Williams will be on [...]

Denver Broncos WR Eddie Royal (groin) returned to practice Friday and is questionable to play Sunday against Oakland. With a 4PM ET start, we’d look elsewhere for wide receiver options this week, as Royal, unlike Antonio Gates, is not worth the risk of possibly being inactive. Especially in what should be a very easy win [...]

Denver Broncos WR Eddie Royal left Sunday’s game against the Jets with a groin injury and did not return. The severity of Royal’s injury is not yet known, although the fact he couldn’t re-enter the game is obviously not good. We’ll pass along more information as we get it.

Denver Broncos RB Knowshon Moreno (hamstring) participated in practice on Friday and is questionable to play Sunday against the Jets. Even if Moreno returns, we wouldn’t recommend using him against the Jets defense. He’d likely split time with Correll Buckhalter as well. Keep Moreno on the bench for another week.

Denver Broncos FS Brian Dawkins will miss the next 2-3 weeks with a knee injury. Dawkins was a top-10 IDP defensive back last season, and has amassed 27 tackles so far this season. His loss will hurt the Broncos run defense, which will deal with the elite ground game of the New York Jets in [...]

Denver Broncos RB Knowshon Moreno (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for Sunday’s game against Baltimore. Moreno has not only proven to be injury-prone in his first two NFL seasons, but a slow healer as well. It’s concerning that Moreno was ruled out before gameday, indicating he’s not particularly close to being ready for game [...]

Denver Broncos QB Kyle Orton went 35-50 for 341 yards, 2 TD’s, and 1 INT in a 26-20 victory over Tennessee. The Broncos running game was non-existent without Knowshon Moreno, so they attacked the Titans through the air in this one. Orton led the team on a key touchdown-drive in the fourth quarter to take [...]

Denver Broncos RB Knowshon Moreno (hamstring) will miss Sunday’s game against Tennessee, according to Coach Josh McDaniels. The Broncos are holding out hope Moreno can return for Week 5, but Laurence Maroney figures to get the start this week. Maroney was less than impressive last week against the Colts, so look for Correll Buckhalter to [...]

Denver Broncos QB Kyle Orton was 37-57 for 476 yards, one TD, and one INT in a 27-13 loss to Indianapolis Sunday. Orton’s terrific season continues, as he is quickly approaching QB1 status in fantasy leagues. He hooked up with Jabar Gaffney 12 times, while hitting Brandon Lloyd six times for 169 yards. On the [...]
