Just because there is no Broncos’ game this weekend does not mean there is no UFG…because ultimate fans are in it every week. And how good does it feel to actually be in the bye week, scouting our future opponent rather than being the “just happy to be here” mode?

Actually, I am just happy to be here because I still think this team needs a lot of refining but I also LOVE THIS TEAM like it’s 2015. Or 1998.

And so does BayAreaUnitedinOrange, our veteran UFGer coming back to give us a preview before heading officially into the postseason...

The Denver Broncos finished their 2025 regular season with a 14-3 record, an AFC West title, and a first-round bye. Today, six members of the team were announced to have earned All-Pro honors. It’s been a long time since the Broncos have had a roster this strong. A big tip of the cap to Head Coach Sean Payton, General Manager George Paton, and the pro and collegiate scouts for helping reforge this roster in relatively short order despite significant limitations due to the implications of the failed Russell Wilson era.

The results of The Associated Press 2025 NFL All-Pro balloting were announced Saturday morning, and a total of six Denver Broncos were named first-team and second-team All-Pros. Your first-team All-Pros are starting left tackle Garett Bolles, right guard Quinn Meinerz, defensive tackle Zach Allen, and special teams ace Devon Key. Your second-team All-Pros are reigning AP Defensive Player of the Year Pat Surtain II and safety Talanoa Hufanga.

The Broncos had an NFL high 6 players named to the AP All-Pro team and an AFC-best total of 14 players receiving at least one vote in the process. The other players...

We asked you which Wild Card team worried you the most as the Broncos’ opponent in the divisional round, and nearly half said the Buffalo Bills. So that means rooting for the Jaguars over the Bills on Saturday, an outcome I personally believe will most certainly happen.

The playoff team the second biggest chunk of Broncos fans fear is the Texans. This is my camp. Of the four teams Denver could face, I worry the most about the Texans defense against our very inconsistent offense.

Not too many fans — just 16% — are worried about our own AFC West...

We will know in just a few days who the Denver Broncos wind up playing in the 2026 NFL Playoff Divisional Round. Their 2025 regular season was a banner campaign. By notching fourteen wins, the Broncos are back to the top of the AFC West. Even better? They have the perks of a first-round playoff bye after securing the number one seed.

It wasn’t always pretty, but Denver showed a lot of toughness and tenacity this season. Embarking on multiple comeback wins, their penchant for fourth quarter comebacks coupled with a stellar defense propelled them to the best regular season...

Garett Bolles was named PFF’s Pass Blocker of the Year for the 2025 season and he has been dominant all year long. He made his first ever Pro Bowl selection this season too.

I’ve been covering the Denver Broncos for his entire career and I remember writing up some pretty harsh criticism of his play early on — especially in regards to holding penalties. I recall at one point he was committing holding penalties at a record-breaking rate. He was so far above the rest of the field that he’d break charts if anyone tried to chart it. The best...

As the number one seed in the AFC, the Denver Broncos could end up playing on either Saturday or Sunday. It all comes down to which teams win during Wild Card weekend.

Head Coach Sean Payton was asked about the potential Divisional Round schedule and he said nothing is finalized. However, the NFL has been known to follow a certain schedule that could end up with the Broncos playing on Saturday if either the Buffalo Bills or Los Angeles Chargers win on Sunday and they’d play the following Sunday only if they had to wait until Monday for the outcome...

The Denver Broncos are on a bye for the Wild Card round, but we’ve got some regular season stats to share. In fact, we’ve had so many that I’ll need to break this up into two posts. One for this week and one for next week.

Denver has a chance to face four of the six playoff teams next week: the Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans, Buffalo Bills, or Los Angeles Chargers. We could know Denver’s opponent as early as Sunday if the Chargers or Bills win, but if both lose then we’ll find out Monday night.

Here’s what I’ve got...

While all the talk and attention this week has been on Broncos coaches interviewing for jobs around the league, the Broncos are still in the playoffs. They clinched the one seed on Sunday and are enjoying a much-deserved bye week before getting ready for the divisional round next weekend. The wildcard round, starting tomorrow, will decide which team will head to Mile High to take on the Broncos.

Due to the Broncos being the one seed, they will play the lowest remaining seed in the divisional round. They will play either the Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans, Buffalo Bills, or Los...

According to ESPN’s Todd Archer, the Dallas Cowboys have requested permission to interview Denver Broncos assistant head coach/defensive pass game coordinator Jim Leonhard for their vacant defensive coordinator position.

The Dallas Cowboys’ defense was absolutely dreadful this past season (trading away Micah Parsons certainly did not help), and due to this, they fired defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus and are looking to revamp their defense this offseason. With them having an opening, they sent out requests to interview four coaches for their defensive coordinator position, which included Denver Broncos assistant head coach and defensive pass game coordinator Jim Leonhard.

Leonhard joined...

There were 1287 sacks in the NFL last season and the Denver Broncos offensive line only allowed 9 according to SISdatahub.com. Ben Powers and Luke Wattenberg allowed no sacks. Garett Bolles, Alex Forsyth, and Alex Palczewski allowed one sack. Quinn Meinerz allowed two sacks and Mike McGlinchey allowed four sacks. The other four offensive lineman who played a snap on offense did not allow a sack.

The team allowed 23, so 14 of the sacks were blamed on a player who does not play offensive line (QB, RB, or TE). FWIW Frank Crum is listed as a TE since he...

There is an old saying that tells us to save our best for last. Sadly, with my Week 18 picks that wasn’t the case. It was one of my worst outings of the season going 8-8. For the regular season I went 178-94 That’s right at 65-percent accuracy. That’s worse than last season by five percent, but not too shabby. Let’s see how I fare with my Wild Card Round picks.
