Ben Hamilton and Alphonso Smith are back practicing, although in limited roles. Buck, BDawk and Larsen did not practice Wednesday.

DPP - Broncos receiver Marshall's attitude improves along with performance - Lindsay Jones
"I'm excited. I've never been more confident in my life and myself as far as the track I'm on, and I can honestly say that," Marshall said. "When you're doing the right thing off the field, it helps on the field, and vice versa. Just like coach always preaches complementary football, life is complementary too."

Kyle Orton practiced without his glove yesterday.

SI - Josh McDaniels takes Bill Belichick's lessons into Sunday showdown - Jim Trotter
"I remember when we first came back after our break, that very first day, that very first morning, he brought me into his office and he gave me five pages, typed, of all the topics and things that he felt like I needed to be educated about to become an effective head coach. I'm thinking to myself, here he's got 10 or 12 days where he can do whatever in the hell he wants to do -- we've just come off a season where we were 16-0 and lost in the Super Bowl -- and the very first day back he gives me this? That was kind of like my bible."

NFL - McDaniels has turned turmoil into triumph, doubters into converts - Bucky Brooks
"after watching the Broncos race out to a surprising 4-0 start this season, even McDaniels' harshest critics must admit the 33-year-old might have been right about this one simple fact: The Broncos are a better team without Jay Cutler."

SN - Defenseless to dominant: Broncos, Jets, 49ers, Saints get tough - Clifton Brown
"We talked a lot about whether it was going to be a 4-3, or 3-4, and what would serve our football team best," Nolan said, referring to conversations with first-year coach Josh McDaniels. "We looked at what we had, and at the time we had very few defensive linemen. I think Josh felt that he could also acquire the players necessary to play the 3-4 quicker."

SI - No-names lead Broncos defensive turnaround - Ross Tucker
"But maybe, just maybe, the guys Nolan is coaching are not as bad as pundits seemed to think they were."

The past meets present clip at DB.com

It’s sure good to see that the players are trying hard to contain their excitement about the stunning beauty of the striped socks so they can concentrate on playing football! LOL

Dawkins: “It matters not what uniform we wear.”

Peterson: “Brown? It doesn’t matter. Doesn’t matter what color we wear. What you wear really doesn’t dictate much of anything.”

Even Gene Mingo is like, “We didn’t have to like what our uniform looked like. It wasn’t about the uniform, it was about the person in the uniform.”

Ringing endorsements if I ever heard them! LOL Looks like we don’t have to worry about the uni’s going to our guy’s heads or anything… LOL

The way Belichick prepared McD

is making it a tiny bit harder for me to hate Belichick so much.

The difference in the way he treated McD as opposed to all the other assistants who left NE, and haven’t done so well, is really promising. Love him or hate him, Belichick is undeniably a good evaluator of talent, and if he sees as much promise in McD as these types of stories make it seem, then we could be looking ta a real good coach here for a long time.

I was shocked by that article too

Belichick going out of his way to help McDaniels succeed is really opening my eyes. Maybe he really is a nice guy deep down and just hates the msm as much as I do. I’m sure if I had to deal with those hyenas on regular basis I would come across as ornery too. Maybe I shouldn’t be so quick to judge him… Nah, it’s still the Pats. GO BRONCOS!

I like how Woody Paige is offended by the "uneducated people outside the building" comment

I think the comment was actually “less educated,” but whatever. It’s true. They know what they’re doing, and we’re all trying to figure out what they’re doing, some with more success than others.

Woody could have said “I am offended by his comment because I feel sorry for those people too and don’t think they should be picked on.”

Frankly the worst thing Woody can do is draw attention to that comment and himself.

Thanks Nyc!

As always, your hard work putting together Horse Tracks is greatly appreciated.

Here’s an article that probably came out after you put the list together that is not listed that gets my goat:

The truth is sexy … and so are NFL Truths by Jason Whitlock:

It’s comical watching everyone fall over themselves praising Josh McDaniels for Denver’s 4-0 start when the Broncos’ undefeated start is the No. 1 reason McDaniels should be ripped.

Put Jay Cutler under center and the Broncos are a serious Super Bowl threat rather than a nice, first-quarter-of-the-season story.

Kyle Orton ain’t winning no Super Bowl. Not in this life. Not on this planet. McDaniels’ mishandling of Cutler might’ve destroyed a Super Bowl team. That’s the story. That mistake isn’t water under the bridge. We don’t forget about it because it happened in February. You can lose the Super Bowl in the offseason just as easily as you can by improperly using timeouts or calling the wrong plays.

At least more people are not as quick, as Whitlock, to fall all over themselves to tear into McDaniels and Orton now that the team has destroyed their preconceived prejudices.

I think he forgot that Cutler wanted to leave.

I’m glad he wrote it anyway. It makes everything more like mainstream media reality. He will not believe, no one believes, everyone just gives the Broncos the friendly stroke.

anybody

who begins a football column with gloating (at least as far as I can tell, though I don’t know why you would gloat over that) about how he was some stupid photo shoot, even going to the lengths of putting a photo of himself to prove it, obviously has some mental issues which should make you seriously question his opinions.

I loved hearing McD mic'd up. That was awesome.

He doesn’t “want” to win. He NEEDS to win. Josh wants to win more than anything. I loved that clip where he is talking to Orton on the sidelines. “No more ‘My Bad’, you GOTTA HIT IT!!!!” He doesn’t take crap from anyone and he wants what is going to WIN the game. This guy is a keeper.

Anatomy of a play

Wow…. great video, but the glaring thing I took from it was something I looked for all week and never saw…. Brandon DID grab the jersey and yank. I know we have said he didn’t. I know several have watched it in HD and sworn he couldn’t have pulled, that it was an open-handed swat or shove. Watch the video again, starting at 2:12. you see the windmilling arms, you see the contact, and it looks innocuous. But if you pay attention, look for what the TE’s body does when Brandon’s hand engages. Watch the direction of the arm movement, and the direction of the TE’s body movement. Brandon’s arm pulls towards himself, and the TE lurches in the same direction. THAT was reminiscent of Shannon Sharp in it’s brevity and effectiveness.
I am not criticizing Brandon here, it’s part of the game and he got away with it. From that perspective it was well done indeed…. but my homerism is not going to put blinders on my objectivity. The TE got used and abused = ) I am sure he will carry that play with him for a long time.

I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money. I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok.

Great catch!

You know what? When I glanced at Newman’s comments (I presume you mean CB, not TE?), I thought he meant Brandon grabbed him just before the catch. Looking back, he actually meant off the snap at the LOS. Brandon definitely DID grab Newman’s jersey. However, I’m guessing this stuff happens both ways and all day long.

Again though, great catch and I think everyone else who wrote that Brandon didn’t grab jersey was also thinking Newman was referring to the moment just before the catch.

by Douglas A. Lee on Oct 8, 2009 7:00 PM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

LMAO… I meant CB, and I think it was actually a DE = )
Newman said he tried to grab back… and he couldnt do that with Marshal behind him, so I looked at the play from the LOS, and saw it. He is still a whiner, but with a point.

was within 5 yards of the LOS, right? So no harm, no foul.

Not that he didn’t do it, but wasit illegal that he did? There is a lot of jersey grabbing at the LOS.
