The era of dominance has once again reared its head in the Mile High City. A sense of urgency looms on the horizon. Swagger has made its mark and the beginning of a journey back to greatness has taken its first step.
The return of the glory days, or as Denver Broncos fans like to call it, Mile High Magic has reemerged in the great state of Colorado in the form of our former nemesis, Peyton Manning.
As a Bronco fan, there were too many times that Manning would dissect our defense and make us realize that we were truly not ready for him and had no business being in a playoff game against anyone, that we squandered our wins in the regular season for a test we did not study for. The red carpet was always rolled out for Manning and fitting enough. He may only have one Super Bowl ring, but the Mile High Magicians have other tricks up their sleeve to ensure that hardware is added to his collection.
The Broncos have decided that winning now is the formula. I agree. John Elway bet his reput...

Juan Eye On: Eli Manning
Eli Manning had a poor week 1 in the opening game against the Cowboys. Throwing for 213 yards and 1 touchdown, look for Eli to improve as the year progresses. As we have seen from previous seasons, he tends to start slow and then gets hot the second half of the season.

Making bold moves in the NFL takes courage. Whether it’s deciding to send an all out blitz on 3rd and long when you need a stop or it’s putting all your trust into a specific player that you feel can help your franchise win, it’s the bold moves that make or break a team. The Denver Broncos and the Washington Redskins were two teams who made bold moves this offseason and if...

Peyton Manning helped lead the new-look Denver Broncos to a big win Sunday night. But while the new quarterback was establishing the start of his era in the Mile High city, one Broncos teammate made sure to pay respects to the team's old signal caller. Von Miller, the NFL's Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2011, picked up where he left off last season on Sunday night. The...
Sports Corn Maze Madness: Peyton Manning & More!

Recap: Peyton Manning Reads Dick LeBeau Like a Map, Steelers Lose
Peyton Manning is back, and it looks like he never left. If you want proof that he's the greatest quarterback of all time, watch his 4th quarter against the Steelers. He saw everything the defense was planning and he knew exactly how to stop it. The defense had no answer for the adjustments Manning was making on the fly. It sucks to lose on opening weekend, but half the teams...
Broncos 31, Steelers 19
DENVER -- Peyton Manning returned from a yearlong absence to lead four scoring drives, completing a go-ahead touchdown pass in the fourth quarter, and the Denver Broncos pulled away to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-19 Sunday night. The NFL's only four-time MVP, who missed his final season in Indianapolis after undergoing a series of operations to repair a neck injury, Manning...
Steelers Offense Atrocious On First Downs Against Broncos
If an offense can't move the ball on first down in a football game, it sets the stage for a long night offensively, and it puts more pressure on the quarterback to convert 3rd and long situations. That is exactly what happened to the Pittsburgh Steelers last night in their 31-19 loss to the Denver Broncos in the Sunday night opener.
While the game plan was to possess the football...
Monday Morning Chrysler New Yorker
No redemption this time.
Not the way I really want to start a season's-worth of recaps. That game was a great battle between Pittsburgh's possession and Denver's quick scores, and 1 mistake ended it. Down 6 with 3+ on the clock is usually a given, only Ben tried to thread a pass to a well-covered Manny Sanders. 6 points the other way and that was pretty much it....
49ers, Cowboys, Redskins, Jets start well
(Eds: With AP Photos.) By BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer Yes, it's one game in a four-month season. Many teams that sizzle in September disappear in December.
Yet the statements made by the 49ers, Cowboys, Redskins, Jets and Broncos cannot be ignored.
Their performances screamed for attention in the opening week of the NFL schedule. Sure, their fans could be screaming...
