Broncos rookie Hillis out for season

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.

    • Outside of cerrato, I do like our draft overall. Hard to get can't miss draft picks when you pick late in the draft
    • Very True--and I am a former HS English teacher.  
    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
