Before the 2013 NFL season many experts targeted Denver Broncos running back Ronnie Hillman as a potential breakout candidate. Conventional wisdom had Hillman and rookie Montee Ball taking over in Denver’s backfield and forming an exciting one-two punch at running back. Just seven weeks into the season Hillman has already found himself deep in head coach John Fox’s doghouse. Mike Klis of the Denver Post is reporting that Hillman will not be active for the Broncos this week after fumbling in back-to-back games. In Week 7 he coughed the ball up near the goal line and that cost Denver any chance it had of beating the Indianapolis Colts. C.J. Anderson will replace Hillman on the game-day roster as the team’s No. 3 back for this Sunday’s matchup against the Washington Redskins. If you have Hillman on your fantasy team it’s probably a good idea to go ahead and dump him. Knowshon Moreno and Ball will almost certainly be the team’s top two backs for the rest of the season. Hillman is in hi...

Knowshon Moreno has been a nice story of redemption since the second-half of last season.
His story, though, is getting a little too good. The Broncos want to spell him more. Less now — more later.
And so Montee Ball and C.J. Anderson will get a chance to prove they can ably spell Moreno today against the Washington Redskins.
In the Broncos’ previous two games, Moreno had...

Hey, hey, hey…slow down! It’s Week 8 already? This season is going way too fast. Pretty much like how certain teams can put up points on the scoreboard, quickly. Eleven teams, thus far, this season are averaging at least 25 points per game, which is on pace to be the most in a season in NFL history. Among those quick scorers, or late point grabbers who are milking up garage...
