Mims the Word: Broncos have to keep getting the ball to Marvin Mims Jr.

Mims the Word: Broncos have to keep getting the ball to Marvin Mims Jr.

It was a complete win. The Broncos 38-6 shellacking of the Atlanta Falcons left little to complain about. The offense did exactly what it needed against a suspect defense. The defense proved it could put a halt to one of the league’s most explosive offenses. And quarterback Bo Nix turned in a near-perfect game – his first 300-yard passing effort with four touchdowns to match.

Such a win leaves little to complain about. But there’s this one little thing…

Can the Broncos somehow get Marvin Mims Jr. the damn ball… more?

It should be noted that Sean Payton has been...

The Chiefs are 9-1

BY PETE SWEENEY

As you know by now, the Kansas City Chiefs are no longer undefeated. Their first loss of the 2024 NFL season came yesterday, in mid-November, at the hands of one of their greatest rivals of the past few seasons, the Buffalo Bills.

Once again, the Patrick Mahomes-led Chiefs and Josh Allen-led Bills delivered a heavyweight...

Payton: Bo Nix ‘belongs here’

Payton: Bo Nix ‘belongs here’

On a day where just about everything went right for the Broncos, all eyes are on the young quarterback as he leads his team.

When Javonte Williams was carried into the end zone by the offensive line for the Broncos’ second touchdown of the day, Bo Nix saw it as something other than a big score.

The team picking up one guy to help him score was a metaphor.

“We have been wanting to get over a hurdle,” Nix said. “He stopped there for a minute and everybody just kind of pushes around him and gets him in the end...

Silver Minings: Raiders have the 4th pick in the draft heading into Week 12

Silver Minings: Raiders have the 4th pick in the draft heading into Week 12

While the losses isn’t good for fans the high draft pick can help them get ready for the future.

The Las Vegas Raiders tallied another loss, dropping their record to 2-8. It was their sixth loss in a row, falling to the Miami Dolphins 34-19 in a game in which they had no answer for the Dolphins’ offense.

It was the Raiders’ 10th game this season in which they were down by two scores. This was the first time this had happened since 1985. If the team continues on this path, it could be their worst season since 2018, when...

Denver Broncos used KC loss as motivation: ‘Their response was really good.’

Denver Broncos used KC loss as motivation: ‘Their response was really good.’

After the Denver Broncos heartbreaking loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last week, much of this past week’s anticipation for Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons was going to measure how they would respond. Denver blew out the Falcons in dramatic fashion on Sunday, which was the response they were looking for.

Denver Broncos respond vs. Falcons

One thing I said last week after the Broncos lost against Kansas City was that a loss like that can either suck the wind out of the sails of the season or push them in the right direction. Sunday’s 38-6 win against...

Raiders’ quick slants: Dolphins edition

Lackadaisical Las Vegas leveled in 34-19 loss

The offense made baby steps towards improvement. The defense, meanwhile, is going backwards.

That was the high-level tale of the tape for the Las Vegas Raiders in a 34-19 thumping handed to them by the host Miami Dolphins on Sunday afternoon.

The defeat marks the sixth-straight for the Silver & Black and represents the longest losing streak in the NFL today (the New York Giants are close at five straight games lost) and plants the Raiders firmly in the AFC West cellar with a 2-8 overall record.

Like many other teams, the Dolphins...

Horse Tracks: Broncos suddenly interesting on both sides of the ball

Horse Tracks: Broncos suddenly interesting on both sides of the ball

Don’t look now, but the Denver Broncos are in the thick of the playoff hunt.

Think about what Broncos football was just a couple short years ago. Feeble quarterback play, the fans having to count down the play clock because the Broncos suddenly forgot how to keep pre-snap rituals under 40-seconds, and ugly losses were landmarks of football in Denver.

Not any more.

When Sean Payton was hired, fans hailed him as the long-needed adult in the room that would hold players accountable and re-establish standards long abandoned in Broncos Country. It’s an exciting time to be a Broncos fan....
