We won't have to face their hot rook this week.

Looks like Tatum Bell.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The Denver Broncos' backfield carousel shows no sign of slowing down.

Rookie Peyton Hillis, who had energized the Broncos offense over the last month, became the fifth Denver running back to go on injured reserve this season when medical tests showed he had a torn right hamstring behind the knee.

The Broncos now will turn to tailback , who was selling cell phones at a Denver-area mall before he was re-signed last month. The team also will promote from the practice squad to compete with to serve as Bell's backup.

He was on my fantasy team.... I was very upset!!!!! but that's okay because it means I don't have to worry about whether or not to start him this week because he's playing the panthers.... Which is the reason I didn't start antonio bryant last night, and that bit me in the ass lol good thing I was up 30 before the game!

Denver with no running attack? Haven't we already played Arizona?

In all seriousness, we've got to shore up some holes in our secondary or else it's going to be a long day against Denver. Teams seem to pass at will against us, especially when running three and four wide.

Our linebackers, however, seem to be improving in pass defense, so that's a good sign.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
