Broncos Film Review: Mike McGlinchey vs the Texans

Broncos Film Review: Mike McGlinchey vs the Texans

Finally. Let’s spend today talking about a man who is quietly one of the best offensive tackles in the league this season.

Mike McGlinchey’s tenure with the Denver Broncos has not been completely positive. Not that I necessarily agree with those sentiments, but his first year with the team was rocky at times, and he did have those moments last year as well, particularly in the passing game. But I think that overall he has been playing really solid football and has been a key contributor to the success of this offense.

This year he has been proving me right....

Broncos could make a ‘holy crap’ trade today and are reportedly coveting another pass catcher

Broncos could make a ‘holy crap’ trade today and are reportedly coveting another pass catcher

The NFL trade deadline is today, and rumors are starting to heat up about our Denver Broncos. We have heard multiple rumors about them being in the wide receiver and/or tight end market already, and now with just hours before the deadline, we have another.

According to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports, the league believes the Denver Broncos do indeed covet another pass catcher, and Sean Payton’s aggressive history makes them a team to watch.

You could make a case either way here. They are 7-2, have been winning with what they have, and should keep the picks and let...

Broncos at Texans: The No Bull Review

Broncos at Texans: The No Bull Review

The Denver Broncos this week went into hostile territory and came away with a victory. Let’s start by giving some credit. That Houston Texans defense is legitimate and deserves a ton of respect. My focus is normally on our team, but I couldn’t help but be impressed with how good they played all four quarters.

This game was pretty telling for our team from a big picture sense. The offense is young and developing with a top-10 talent at quarterback. The defense is the rock this house is built on. Special teams is a clown fiesta.

I’m grateful for everyone...

Are Special Teams a problem?

Are Special Teams a problem?

Another game dominated by defense.

Another fourth quarter comeback.

Another one-score game.

And even though it was another game won by a last-second field goal from Wil Lutz, it was also another game almost squandered by sloppy special teams.

“I think, a really good issue to have is when you’re finding these ugly wins,” said quarterback Bo Nix, adding that it won’t always be like that, but the team is leaning into it whenever it is. “For right now, the ugly wins are how we’re doing it, so that’s what we’re going to continue to find ways to do.”...

Broncos vs. Raiders: Monday practice participation report

Broncos vs. Raiders: Monday practice participation report

The Denver Broncos win over the Houston Texans seemed to have come at a cost on the injury front. It was a tough defensive slugfest and this practice report shows that. There are seven guys on the DNP list, though four of those guys were out on Sunday anyway, but it is troubling to see Brandon Jones and Riley Moss on the report. It doesn’t seem like anything serious, though, but with the short week it will be something to monitor.

Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Raiders are looking fully healthy. Brock Bowers came back and had a massive game after...

Broncos’ tenacity and toughness shine in six-game winning streak

Broncos’ tenacity and toughness shine in six-game winning streak

Good teams in the National Football League find a way to win close and hard-fought battles. The Denver Broncos victory over the Houston Texans was the epitome of winning an ugly game. It’s also symbolic of a trend that’s fared much for the Broncos in year three of the Sean Payton era compared to the first two seasons.

The Broncos have won five of the seven games this season that have been within one score. The losses? September matches to the Indianapolis Colts and Los Angeles Chargers on last second field goal attempts. Those didn’t go their way and sometimes...

Monday Night Football Week 9: Cardinals at Cowboys Open Thread

Monday Night Football Week 9: Cardinals at Cowboys Open Thread

The Dallas Cowboys (3-4-1) will be at home on Monday Night Football to take on the Arizona Cardinals (2-5) to close out Week 9 of the regular season. Both teams have struggled to start the season, but one at least has an elite caliber unit with the Cowboys offense being a high-scoring unit. Will they be able to put up enough points with their defense also giving up a lot of points? That is the question.

Kickoff is set for Monday, November 3, 2025 at 6:15 p.m. Mile High time at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texans and will air on...

Broncos stats and snaps for the win over the Texans

Broncos stats and snaps for the win over the Texans

As I write this, the Denver Broncos are tied with the Indianapolis Colts and the New England Patriots for the league lead in wins with 7. There is no NFC team with 7 or more wins.

The Broncos are currently 4th in points allowed per game.

The Bronco offense has now beaten the best scoring defense in the league after having played five of the six worst scoring defenses in the league. The only one of those that the Broncos have yet to face is the Bears – Denver does not play Chicago this year. The Broncos have two games...

Game balls for the Broncos 18-15 win over the Texans

All that matters is winning games. And that is something the Denver Broncos are figuring out how to do no matter what type of game they are playing. During this six-game win streak, the Broncos have won two via blowouts, two via defensive slugfests, and two via increasingly insane comebacks. They are now, surprisingly, undefeated in games where they have trailed in the fourth quarter — a perfect 4-0. The irony being that the two losses were walk-off field goals.

It is hard to give game balls to the offense in a defensive battle like this one, but we found...

Bringing back RTD’s BroncosRide is a big deal for fans

The BroncosRide may be making a comeback.

For years, RTD’s BroncosRide brought Broncos fans from all over Denver to Mile High on gameday. My family and I would drive to Arapahoe High School near my parents’ house, pay a nominal fare, and we’d get a ride to the game where they would drop fans off right at the front doors of the stadium. BroncosRide was terrific because it would zip you to and from the stadium without the hassles of parking, walking, or navigating the dreaded goose poop sidewalks around the stadium.

Then the COVID happened and BroncosRide was suspended....

Broncos vs. Raiders betting odds for Week 10

The Denver Broncos secured their sixth win in a row on Sunday in a defensive slugfest on the road against the Houston Texans. They will now have a short week to prepare for their AFC West rival Las Vegas Raiders who are coming off their own close game, though they lost in overtime on a failed two-point conversion attempt. This is a must-win game for Denver as they will be hosting the Kansas City Chiefs the following week in a game that figures to have major playoff implications.

According to FanDuel, the Broncos are 9.5-point home favorites against the Raiders...

Winners and losers from the Broncos’ victory over the Texans

Winners and losers from the Broncos’ victory over the Texans

The Broncos win another close one, win their 6th straight game, and improve to 7-2 on the year.

We saw the offense struggle throughout most of the game once again, but Bo Nix led another 4th quarter comeback and did just enough to get the offense into field goal range, where Wil Lutz kicked the game-winner. The Broncos’ defense suffocated the Texans’ offense, which was without quarterback C.J. Stroud for most of the game, and did well overall while being down All-Pro cornerback Pat Surtain II.

It wasn’t pretty, but a win is a win, and the Broncos are currently...
