DB - Recovering and Ready
Sunday brought the welcome sight of Brian Dawkins and Brandon Marshall practicing. BMarsh admitted to feeling rusty, while BDawk was frustrated watching Friday's game from home. By the way, Marshall is back to referring to the Broncos as "we" - a wonderful development.

BMarsh says it's been all about his hamstring recently; not his hip. He says he's not in game shape. Someone needs to tell Brandon that Roddy White has a year on him...
