According to NFL Network’s lead NFL analyst Ian Rapoport, the Denver Broncos have reportedly signed kicker Wil Lutz to a three-year contract extension.

We’ll have more on this story soon!

The Denver Broncos drafted the only punter taken in the draft this year and let veteran former Bronco draftee, Riley Dixon, walk as a free agent. So far, Jeremy Crawshaw has been extremely good at the main job of the punter, which is maximizing field position. He has the most punts downed inside the 20 and the 10, but this has to tempered since he has the most punts with 57 in 11 games. He is near the top in % inside the 20 and the 10, but not leading.

His net average has suffered because he is focusing on...

Welcome back to our Broncos at the Bye series. For the first installment, I asked the Mile High Report staff: “How can Denver achieve contender status in the last six games of the season?” With this second installment, I wanted to switch gears a bit and reflect on what’s been so great about the Broncos to date. That’s why I asked the staff, “What about the team gives you the most optimism after 11 games?”

I’m absolutely stoked on how well the defense has been playing. The most sacks in the league, the best red zone defense,...

A big game in the AFC as the red hot Buffalo Bills offense will be on the road to take on the stingy Houston Texans defense. If I had to pick one team in the conference that would make me sweat if the Denver Broncos were to face them in the playoffs, it would be these Bills — who just happened to whip the Broncos 31-7 last January. I’d hope the New England Patriots would keep them in the wild card hunt and make them win a few games, hopefully, before a rematch in with Denver. So a loss tonight...

With the Denver Broncos enjoying their much-needed bye this week, I thought it would be apt to have a roundtable discussion with the staff and our readers. The Broncos currently sit atop the AFC West with a 9-2 record and are winners of eight in a row. There is no doubt they are one of the best teams in the National Football League.

But have we seen enough thus far to label them legitimate Super Bowl contenders? For the initial installment of our Broncos at the Bye roundtable discussions, I asked the Mile High Report staff: *“How can Denver achieve...

The twelfth week of the NFL regular season has arrived. My Week 11 picks weren’t too shabby. I picked 11 of 15 games correctly. Through eleven weeks I’m now sitting at 109-55 with predictions. Thank you to a reader who noticed my count was off last week by a game. Let’s see how well I can do with my Week 12 picks.

Thursday Night Football — Buffalo Bills at Houston Texans

Winner: Bills

Both of these teams are coming off big wins. I’m excited to see how Josh Allen, who had a tremendous game last week, goes up against a...

Good morning, Broncos Country. With the Denver Broncos on their bye week, I figured today’s installment of Horse Tracks would be apt focus on potential adjustments Denver could make to finish off the last six games of the season strong. The Broncos have certainly done well thus far. Heck, I think it’s safe to say they’ve exceeded most fans expectations.

Sporting a 9-2 record and two-game lead in the AFC West, this is the best the orange and blue have looked since their Super Bowl 50 winning season. Even so, it’s safe to say there is still room for improvement....

In what should be a surprise to no one, Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has been named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week after his walk-off field goal for a huge win over the Chiefs on Sunday.

It was a win that made Aqib Talib say, “Sh*t just got real for the AFC West.”

After the game when head coach Sean Payton was asked about Lutz, a guy he brought to Denver two years ago after being his coach in New Orleans, was not surprised in the least by Lutz’s veins of ic.

“Five-for-five. He had a great night....

The Bronco offensive line had a big challenge on Sunday. The Chiefs boast a strong defensive front, with strong pass rushers, and Chris Jones is a tough guy to handle in the interior. This was also another test to see if Alex Palczewski can perform against an All-Pro. The guys up front did their job well, and Palczewski more than held his own throughout the majority of the game.

This week we’ll focus on the third year man out of Illinois who made his fifth start this year in replacement of Ben Powers. And I wanted to look through the...

As ESPN reporter Sergio Dipp once said, Vance Joseph is having the time of his life!

Vance Joseph is the mastermind behind the Denver Broncos’ defense that is once again leading the NFL in sacks, proving to be an elite unit in the NFL, and a big reason why the Broncos are 9-2, leading the AFC West, and are currently the number one seed in the AFC. He has become a beloved coach in Broncos Country, but it hasn’t always been that way.

Honestly, Vance Joseph is having a Hollywood-like redemption arc with the Broncos.

Let us go back to...

With J.K. Dobbins out for the season, the Broncos’ offense has taken a step back in running production. The Broncos’ running back room currently is as follows:

R.J. Harvey 5’8″ 205lbs

Jaleel McLaughlin 5’7″ 187lbs

Tyler Badie 5’8″ 197lbs

The room is a little light. Each of these guys tends to go down on first contact more often than not on inside runs.

In the middle of the season, these boys aren’t going to size up during a bye week, so they are who they are.

Against the Chiefs, it was rough sledding with a grand total of 2.8 yards...
