If Denver is going to be Successful this year they need to stay with what Denver has been good at, Running the football. Last week we saw the Broncos go away from running the ball early and late in the game go back to it.  It is still true today as it was 20 years ago running the ball will wear out a defence and late in the game is when you go for the air strike.  To many times this year I have seen Josh McDaniel's go to the passing game early and rely so much on Orton to get the job done.

Is this really beacuse he see's something in Orton we do not see or is this a ploy? Is Orton the fall guy for when this season ends bad, Orton takes the blame? Orton will be a Free Agent next year and denver will have 2 picks in the First round there is talk already Denver has thier QB all picked out. Tim Tebow, I can say if Denver wants him they will need to be in the first 5 picks of the 2010 Draft to get him.

But until Denver shows us they can win a game without a miracle catch I still say the Broncos have a whole lot of work to do. This week look for the browns to put pressure on Orton to force bad throws, If Denver goes away from the run early this could be a long day for the Denver Broncos
