Brandon Stokley wants to focus on third downs this season. See here
Stokley is also happy and healthy. See here
It's a good thing that Ryan Clady is a big man because the bar is set very high for the rookie LT. See here
Here's Clark Judge's "5 things to know" about the Broncos. See here
CBS Sportsline also asked if the third year will be a charm for Jay Cutler. See here
SI gave a training camp postcard of the Broncos. See here
Dewayne Robertson is thrilled to be back in a 4-3 alignment. See here
Would you believe that the Broncos were somewhat responsible for getting Guru's favorite player to the NY Cropdusters? See here
Former Bronco kicker Joe Nedney will be inducted into the San Jose State University Hall of Fame. See here

Didn't people associated with the conquered fader nation last season say Michael Bush will be thier team's future savior at the RB position? Looks like he will be just a blocker and a short yardage back now. See here
Looks like there are still problems with Phyllis and his merry men getting a new home. See here
Antonio Cromartie is shooting his mouth off and predicting 15 interceptions this season. I guess Phyllis' ego rubbed off on this merry man. See here

The article on Ryan Clady is very good.
I can’t wait to see how this kid pans out. Horvil_Tiki’s comments are comical as well. Check them out.

omg, so awesome
Reminds me of a poster in a video game forum I used to read for laughs. He claimed he was from Mongolia and typed in all this crazy-funny Engrish. I knew it was fake but still loved every line he posted.
Can someone create a FanPost of the best of Tiki posts? ;)

I always thought it was Woody Paige
Sometimes it’s weird how Horvil_Tiki is always the first to comment on Woody’s articles. Well not everytime but I always wondered if it was him. He wont give you a straight answer if you ask either.

I like how Clark Judge just hands the AFC West title to the Chargers
and leaves the Broncos hope for a wild card. See what I mean about the media hacks crowning the Chargers? Past success does not guarantee future victory. I would give the Chargers a good shot at winning the West based on their talent and past performance, but their AFC West title for 2008 is by no means already decided.
The QUEST.

Clark Judge
is a former SD beat writer so I dont take anything this clown says to seriously.
I wouldnt expect anything less from you Dabolts! =)
Beware of the Broncos. Underestimate them, please do

I was looking for Cromartie's Braggadocio
And all I got was a crummy logo.

He should he
His big fat yapper shut. The NFL record is 14, and that has lasted since 1952. Cromartie is he good enuff to back it up? Maybe. But he isnt getting 14. That I guanantee

lol... not much different than SY predicting 2k yds
Setting lofty, albeit somewhat unrealistic, goals ain’t a bad thing for anyone…

never once
did I say or intimate I disagree with his prediction I believe he should not be so arrogant. But I am a Bronco fan, I as much as I like SY stating he wants 2000, thats different that saying I am gonna get 15 picks. Plus to me its easier to get 2000 (its not easy overall) than it is to get 15 picks. Whereas SY will get the ball, teams can choose not to throw in Cormarties direction. Ask Champ about that. HE is the Best CB in the game. Look how quiet he is.

The article calls 15 Cromartie's goal
I guess we read it differently. As for Champ, I’ll grant he is the best and conducts himself with enormous class and dignity.

Iheard it on the radio
that he guaranteed it. It maybe scematics really. Now if stated it as a goal then thats cool, I dont begrudge anyone saying thats a goal. Its the ones that say I WILL. That was what I was alluding to. I dont know if you listen to 1360 or 1090. But 1360 was touting it as a guarantee

I was going with "goal" too... ;)
And in the article, he says all the “right” things about being the complete player and improving year by year. It’s not just about this 15 INTs thing only…
In any case, both feats in my mind would be monumental given a variety of factors. We’ll see who gets closest! Here’s to hoping it’s SY!!!
Also, arrogance is unfortunately rampant in the NFL these days (see: Chad Johnson, TO, DeAngelo Hall, Todd Sauerbrun, ugh). I take most of what comes out of these athletes’ mouths with a huge grain of salt.
by tunga77 on Aug 8, 2008 2:38 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Think of it this way too...
If SY does get 2000 and Cromartie does get 15 picks you won’t be hearing cracks about the AFC “worst” this year… Now if only we could get the Chiefs and Raiders to elevate their level to competitive again. Well the Chiefs at least.
by JR_G on Aug 9, 2008 6:18 AM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Probably Not
But I love the confidence. I’m thinking he won’t come close just because nobody is going to throw his way next year. But consider this, he started six games, played three playoff games and then the Pro-Bowl, 14 Picks. What I really liked was that in camp he was working on his tackling; he not only has amazing talent, he has a great work ethic to go with it.

Good articles on Clady and Cutler
and I think if Clady succeeds that will be a big impact on Culter. Some people wondered why the Browns picked Thomas in the first, yet he ended up improving their o-line. Hopefully Clady will be able to do the same here in Denver.
Culter did have some bad moments at the end of last year, however he still played good considering, so I figure he will be more focused on the field and be able to make the plays he missed last year.

JUST A QUESTION?
how r teams going to double team marshal and royal and still cover shokley?
by metalman5050 on Aug 8, 2008 7:06 PM MDT reply actions 0 recs
they can't...
that’s what i am saying. the passing game is going to be open this season for exploitation. and don’t forget scheff. then we have our no. 3 wideout, and even graham. oh, and hillis out of the backfield. this is going to be ridiculous when we put it all together, probably around midseason. believe it or not, i’m more concerned with the running game. i can’t believe i’m typing that. but the passing game, with adequate protection, is really looking stupendous
