The Broncos defense has been criticized going back to their first round playoff exit in January. Their defense let Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco make plays whenever he wanted, and that’s why the Ravens went on to defeat the Broncos in the divisional round. Read More
Broncos fans and Chiefs fans have been fired up all week whether it’s sports radio, Twitter and internet comments on newspapers sites. They have been busy taking shots at each other while defending their teams in the process. It’s great to see this all week. The passion both fanbases have for their teams is palpable, and it’s a reminder that’s it’s on after years of poor to mediocre football by both teams. The Broncos-Chiefs rivalry is in full effect.

Every week I pick every NFL game against the spread. Lucky for you, now that I’m on Lighting Rod Sports, you get to see and rate my picks too!! Of the 131 or so games played this year, I am 131-0, as far as you know. Read More
The long-awaited matchup between the Chiefs and the Broncos is finally under a week away. The 9-0 Chiefs face the 8-1 Broncos in a clash of two of the best teams in the NFL. It isn’t a game simply between two great teams or AFC West rivals, either. The design of each team is fundamentally different. Read More
Talking to a Jets fan at a sports bar in New York yesterday afternoon, he muttered “Why can’t the Jets have players like the Broncos on offense?” The Broncos have been consistently good on offense all season long by averaging 42.9 points per game through eight games. That’s amazing in a league where inconsistency is the norm. Read More
The Denver Broncos have started this season strong, despite a loss to Indianapolis; they are currently 7-1 and in second place in the AFC West standings. Halfway done with the season and coming off of a bye-week, and are in San Diego to take on Phillip Rivers and the Chargers. Read More
In light of what Richie Incognito did to Jonathan Martin, it’s troubling we have former football players, current football players, couple of sports radio talkies and fans defending football players for hazing. Read More

At least, Mike Shanahan received a video tribute from the Broncos for winning two championships as Broncos coach. He even received a standing ovation for two minutes from the crowd. That’s the only good day he had in his return to Denver as Redskins coach. Read More
Something is amiss. Former Broncos coach Mike Shanahan returns to Denver on Sunday as the Redskins head coach, and the Denver media and Broncos fans are indifferent about his return. Read More
Week 5 produced another 2-2 week which brings the year to date total to 11-9-2. New England finally lost a game the one time I decide that they are a good bet. Read More

My apologies for missing last week, however we are back and better than ever. I did end up going 3-1 last week by winning with San Francisco, Arizona, and New Orleans, and losing because Cincinnati could not move the ball against Cleveland. This week has some pivotal games for many teams and should produce some great results. Read More
