Broncos’ Brock Osweiler looking like backup plan at quarterback - Q: Are there any sort of risks if the Broncos make (Brock) Osweiler the backup QB?

Peyton Manning already has memorable history playing in Denver - If he’s nervous, it’s only because for all his robotic passing proficiency, Peyton Manning is human. If he is excited, he will hardly be the only one. If he’s scared, it will be a first.

The second chapter is so clearly under way at Broncos training camp — even if in so many ways he still looks like the same old Peyton Manning. Read more from NFL.com >>>>
Denver Broncos Training Camp 2012: Last chance for 2009 draftees Moreno, Ayers - As a friend recently reminded us on Twitter, in Broncos Country, Josh McDaniels‘ surname is a four-letter word. The sound “McDaniels” is fingernails on the chalkboard, a teeth-clinching, shoulder-buckling, neck-hairs-standing-on-end reminder of the worst two-year period in franchise history.
