Over the past seven games, the Denver Broncos have fumbled the football 11 times (5th-most in the NFL), losing 10 of those fumbles (2nd-most). Although the offense has been on fire in recent weeks, its Achilles’ heel has been ball security.
From quarterback, to receivers, to running backs, all of Denver’s main skill players have been plagued by the fumble bug this season. Fourth-year receiver Demaryius Thomas and veteran running back Willis McGahee have been the chief offenders, with three lost fumbles apiece.
In Week 6, Thomas vowed to correct his ball security (and boy, was it necessary) and started carrying around a football close to his body. Thomas has lived up to his pledge, at least temporarily, and he’s been fumble-free since Week 5 of the season.
The same cannot be said of McGahee, who has fumbled twice in Denver’s past three games, including a lost fumble during Denver’s 34-14 rout of New Orleans on Sunday. Coach John Fox touched on McGahee — and the team’

Broncos wide receiver Demaryius Thomas reportedly dressed up as a replacement referee for Halloween this year according to Peter Burns, and the picture is pretty great. We aren’t saying that the costume is ground breaking, but when it comes to timeliness, it definitely receives some high marks. No word yet on Roger Goodell’s reaction, but we are fairly positive that even he...

Relevant!
So Broncos WR Demaryius Thomas dressed up as a replacement referee for Halloween, and somehow I’m not the least bit impressed. The NFL just finished up week 8 and the replacement officials haven’t been seen or heard from since week 3, which makes this costume rather lame. Now, had he worn the outfit and added a Home Depot apron or something, then maybe Thomas would...

McGahee took some time out of his busy schedule to speak to over 800 students about the importance of exercise and a healthy diet as part of the Play 60 program. Hopefully he got through to some of them as this next generation is way too lazy and eats like crap.
