Moreno Named Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week
Knowshon Moreno was named the Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week for his performance Sunday in Denver's 17-10 victory over the visiting Cowboys. Moreno had 14 carries for 65 yards, along with 2 receptions for 11 yards, including a 9-yard TD catch. Although Knowshon lost a fumble, he did also have a key block on Kyle Orton's 51-yard game-winning TD pass to Brandon Marshall.

When you win
your players get recognition. That’s always the way it’s been. Somehow I suspect he’s proudest of that block. That means he made a key contribution to both TDs.

Nice job Moreno. Now step up big again on Sunday and get us to 5-0.

I could see
two rushing TDs in this game for him. He is one tough runner..

College and Preseason
Congrats Knowshon. I was psyched when we drafted him and his few carries in preseason. My faith in him is steadily being proven in his play. This type of award is nice. I hope he gets it every week! He entered the season as the oddsmakers favorite to win ROY. I think he is just behind Sanchez now.
He'll continue to improve
in this offense, too.

Lady, you want me to answer you if this old airplane is safe to fly? Just how in the world do you think it got to be this old?

Failing to plan is planning to fail.
All I want is 53 Rod Smiths. Is that asking too much????

I think he will be getting this award pretty often.
"Really, I'm a high-motor guy. Tough, hard-nosed, a hard runner, can make you miss at times. And just competitive. I love to play the game and I bring that energy to my team. So, we'll see how that goes." - Knowshon Moreno
Knowshon Moreno=ROY
Nice
I hope this is just the first of many accolades in a long career here in Denver.
Don't argue with fools. It's how they reproduce.
Kudos Kno Mo!

The coolest thing about this..
To me, at least, is that his college teammate Mohamed Massaquoi got 2nd place.
People wonder why Georgia is struggling on offense this year, just look in Denver, Detroit, and Cleveland.
