It’s been a long two weeks, but the day has finally arrived! By the end of today we’ll know if the Denver Broncos season is going to continue for another week or if the Buffalo Bills dashed our hopes for the season.

A lot is riding on head coach Sean Payton’s shoulders in the game and playcalling is going to be a big part of whether or not the Broncos win. That and execution of those called plays, of course.

On that topic, Payton was asked a question that led into far deeper insight into Payton’s mindset in games. The...

The Denver Broncos announced that they are elevating rookie tight end Caleb Lohner and former Buffalo Bills wide receiver Elijah Moore from the practice squad to the active roster for Saturday’s Divisional Round game vs. the Bills.

This will be Lohner’s first career NFL game, while this will be Elijah Moore’s first career game with the Broncos and will be against the team that waived him earlier in the year.

These are two very interesting practice squad elevations.

Lohner was a 7th-round selection in the 2025 NFL Draft and spent the entire regular season on the Broncos’ practice squad. However,...

The Denver Broncos draw what is the toughest opponent of the AFC Divisional Round in the Buffalo Bills. To be the best, you have to beat the best and it feels like the winner of this game is likely to be the team that ends up in the Super Bowl when its all said and done.

After opening as home underdogs, the line quickly shifted to favor the Broncos. However, the insult was there and we won’t stop calling them overdogs until the season is over. Be ready for an electric game on Saturday!

Game Overview

**Denver Broncos vs....

Welcome to our fourth and final installment of our Divisional Round roundtable discussions. In our first entry, I asked the staff which Denver Broncos players needed step their game up against the Bills on Saturday. With our second installment, we discussed the biggest concerns heading into the Divisional Round gridiron matchup. For my third question, we discussed reasons to be optimistic and confident the Broncos can take care of business on Saturday.

The last question may be a tough one to answer. Nobody wants to see Denver’s season come to an end. Even so, I wanted to get the pulse...

Earlier this week, I talked about 3 No Bull keys for the offense. Now let’s talk about what the Broncos’ defense needs to do to beat the Bills.

The Denver Broncos have been riding their defense all season long to rack up the most wins this team has seen in a regular season since 1998. People may like to hem and haw about what this defense is and isn’t (especially toward the back half of the season).

Let me first say that this defense is no joke. Outside of a bad game against Jacksonville, they have been the most consistent...

This is the third of four of our Mile High Report roundtable discussions. For the first installment, we discussed what Denver Broncos players needed step their game up on Saturday against the Buffalo Bills. With our second installment, we discussed our biggest concerns heading into the Divisional Round gridiron matchup.

For my third question, I wanted to be more optimistic. That’s why asked the staff: “What gives you confidence the Broncos can defeat the Bills?”

The Denver Broncos get a shot at revenge this Saturday hosting the Buffalo Bills in their Divisional Round gridiron matchup. After an early Wild Card Round Weekend loss last year, the Broncos are looking to topple the Bills this time around to get the chance to host the AFC Championship Game on January 25th. Let’s take a deeper look at the Broncos’ playoff opponent.

2025 Buffalo Bills Regular Season Review

The Bills finished 12-5 during the regular season with a second-place finish behind the New England Patriots in the AFC East. Their offense had a stellar season being fourth...

Denver Broncos punter Jeremy Crawshaw was decent but not great as a rookie punter in the NFL. As I do at the end of every season, I do a deep dive into punting that is more thorough than any other site.

At the end of the day, the job of the punter is to maximize field position for the team. So the best way to measure the performance of a punter is to determine how well the punter did at winning the field position game for their team.

I break up punts into two groups, long-field punts (from the team’s...

The Denver Broncos have ruled out two players for this game and both were only recently activated off injured reserve in both linebacker Drew Sanders and tight end Lucas Krull. The other two guys on the report both got full days of practice in on Thursday, so it looks like both defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers and linebacker Dre Greenlaw will be good to go on Saturday.

Meanwhile, the laundry list of an injury report from the Buffalo Bills has a lot more to digest. Cornerback Maxwell Hairston and safety Jordan Poyer were both ruled out. Five other players were listed...

Now that we’re full-on into the playoffs, it’s time to stop looking in the rearview with our Secret Superstars series, and start looking forward to the next game with Postseason X-Factors. The principle is the same — using game tape and metrics to uncover those hidden gems for every team who are primed to bring their best when their franchises need it the most.

*The Denver Broncos are the AFC’s one-seed based on a ferocious defense and a complementary, balanced offense in its own way. One issue that could upend the Broncos on the path to their first Super Bowl...

With the Denver Broncos set to battle the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional Round on Saturday, I felt it would be a good time to ask the Mile High Report staff a series of questions about the game. For the first installment, we discussed players we felt needed to step their game up a notch to help topple the Bills. Each and every answer was unique.

For my second question, I wanted to switch gears and asked the staff: “What concerns you most about the Broncos vs. Bills matchup?” And of course, there was a consistent theme to most...

It looks like Vance Joseph will be heading back to the desert.

According to 9NEWS Denver’s Mike Klis, Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph is expected to emerge as a strong candidate for the Arizona Cardinals head coaching position. Yesterday, we told you that Joseph was the current odds-on-favorite to be the next head coach of the Cardinals, and now we have a report from Klis saying Joseph will be a strong candidate for the job once he can officially interview for it.

Where there is smoke, there’s a fire.

Klis notes in his article that Joseph cannot interview in...
