Broncos To Start Brock Osweiler In Week 16

The Broncos are 3-2 with Osweiler, who’s been victimized by a leaky line and big drops by Vernon Davis and Demaryius Thomas in back-to-back losses. I just think we were taking the steps we thought that were necessary last week and had a little hiccup along the way.

The three times I was bowled if you look at them in isolation they were three different errors that caused me to get bowled.

Bruton, Denver’s special-teams captain and Walter Payton Man of the Year nominee, played a team-high 77 defensive snaps despite breaking his fibula in the first quarter of Sunday’s game against Pittsburgh. I’m not having to win football games by myself.


Raiders rise to occasion, win possible finale in Oakland
Oakland Raiders free safety Charles Woodson (24) carries the ball against San Diego Chargers inside linebacker Manti Te’o (50). San Diego was coming off a win over the Dolphins in their last appearance, while Oakland fell to the Packers in Week 15.

The Broncos have not scored in the second half with Osweiler under center in their last three games. Facing a Broncos defense looking for redemption, offensive coordinator Hue Jackson is going to have to take some shots with AJ McCarron in his second start. With the playoffs just a few weeks away, It would be a huge boost to Brock Osweiler’s confidence if the Broncos do choose to trust him with the offense going into the postseason. The same things being said about Osweiler now are the things people were saying about Manning two months ago.


At Least 25 Killed in Fire at Saudi Hospital
The civil defense agency said 25 people died but a later statement by Health Minister Khalid al-Falih put the death toll at 24. Jizan is the capital of the Jizan region in southwest Saudi Arabia, located immediately north of the Yemen border.

“You have to make great plays to be successful. That’s been the plan all along”, Kubiak said.

“We got ourselves into this situation and I wouldn’t say it’s a bad situation”, wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders said.

Bruton also was playing on a balky left knee and was so hobbled by game’s end that he needed linebacker Danny Trevathan and a trainer to help him to the locker room. “[Manning] is doing everything we’re asking him to do, and he’s doing it because he wants to do it”. “We’re going to stay focused on the positive and move forward”.

So, no harping on punter Britton Colquitt’s continued poor performances.

The 26-year-old is the driving force on the front seven in Wade Phillips’ 3-4 scheme. “I know who I’d be voting for right now for MVP”.

“It doesn’t bother me either way”, Osweiler said. “That was a tough matchup”.

The Broncos are still the No. 1 defense in the National Football League, allowing just 279.9 total yards per game.

“That’s a insane spectrum of possibilities”, tight end Owen Daniels said. If he can lead the Broncos to a win, which hasn’t happened since San Diego, he could see himself in orange for a bit longer.
