Denver Broncos: Which Rookie Will Have the Biggest Impact in 2012? - After a 1-4 start, Tim Tebow led the Denver Broncos to an 8-8 record and an AFC West title and a first round victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.  But now, Tebow is no longer with the team; the Broncos replaced him with four-time NFL MVP Peyton Manning.  In the 2011 NFL draft, the Broncos struck gold with their first round pick Von Miller, who won NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year. They also gained a starting tackle in Orlando Franklin, who started all 18 games for the Broncos, including their two playoff games. Rahim Moore and Quinton Carter split time at the safety position and appear to be solid back line players.  Read more from Bleacher Report >>>>

What to Watch for in the First Quarter of the Denver Broncos Regular Season - One year ago, when someone said “Denver Broncos“, what was the first thing you thought of?  Current New York Jets backup quarterback, Tim Tebow.  Of course, this time last year, Tebow was on the fast track to becoming a practice squad quarterback, quarterback Kyle Orton‘s job looked safe, and it looked as if a losing season would be a certainty.  Well, we all know how that worked out.  Orton now backs up Tony Romo for the Dallas Cowboys, Tebow is making Mark Sanchez feel more uncomfortable than one feels after eating cheap chinese food on longcar rides, and the Broncos have gone all-in on a quarterback who many feel will lead them to the promised land.  With Tebow already being a distant memory, how much success can Broncos fans expect out of the first year with Peyton Manning?  To figure this out, I think we need to look at the schedule.  Read more from Rant Sports >>>>

Peyton Manning’s Numbers Versus The AFC West - All things being equal, the vast majority of NFL teams (minus the Indianapolis Colts) would likely rather have Peyton Manning competing for them and not against them.  The Denver Broncos know the feeling.  In the nine games Manning has played against the Broncos (not including a game at the end of the 2004 season where his day was done after one drive), he has amassed a sensational 66.1% completion ratio, 24 touchdowns and only 6 interceptions.  Manning also averaged 276 yards per game and a 95.2 averaged quarterback rating.  Oh yeah…he went 8-1 as a starter against the Broncos during his career with the Colts.  Read more from Predominantly Orange >>>>

He’s been fielding questions on Manning-related topics for months.  Read more from NFL.com >>>>

Philip Rivers is just fine with Peyton Manning in a Denver Broncos jersey - It’s near impossible to predict how the AFC West is going to shake out in 2012. The Broncos are led by a legend whose head is currently resting on a gigantic question mark, the Chargers seem philosophically opposed to fulfilling their potential, and almost nothing would be surprising from the Oakland Raiders or the Kansas City Chiefs.  Read more from Yahoo!
