  • Kiszla: There's Only One Way Beautiful Bro-Mance Between Broncos Chris
    Kiszla: There’s only one way beautiful bro-mance between Broncos Chris Harris Jr. and Von Miller can continue beyond 2019 By Mark Kiszla Denver Post July 18, 2019 The two most essential pieces for Denver this season? Shaq and Kobe … or Chris and Von, if your heart bleeds orange. Before the Broncos even don the pads, there’s already a controversy at training camp. Von Miller and Chris Harris Jr., the two best players on the team, are bickering like brothers. “We are like Shaq and Kobe,” Harris said Wednesday, comparing the Broncos’ stellar defensive tandem to the legendary Los Angeles Lakers of yore. So being the intrepid reporter, I asked: Which one is Shaquille O’Neal? And who is Kobe Bryant? Harris immediately piped up: “He’s Shaq.” And Miller retorted: “I’m definitely Kobe.” Children, please. Try to behave. We all know the Broncos haven’t been on the same page – or in the NFL playoffs — since Super Bowl 50. So it appears Harris and Miller are already in mid-season form, even before new coach Vic Fangio is forced to toss aside his beloved gray sweats in the sweltering July heat. Yes, Miller and Harris are just messing with each other about the Shaq and Kobe stuff. So let’s get down to serious business: How good should Broncos Country expect their favorite team to be in 2019? “I’ll let you guys set that. We know what our goals are,” said GM John Elway, his trademark swagger stuck in a revolving door of failed quarterbacks during the past three seasons.

  • The Broncos Have a Von Miller Problem. Here's What John Elway
    The Broncos have a Von Miller problem. Here’s what John Elway can do to fix it. By Mark Kiszla Denver Post Jan. 18, 2018 The Broncos have a Von Miller problem. Don’t get me wrong. The Vonster is an elite pass rusher, a good teammate and a funny dude. But he was born to dance, not lead. Since Peyton Manning retired, let’s just say Miller is 0-for-2 in leading the Broncos to the playoffs. “Two times not going to the playoffs is just not going to ride,” Miller admitted before Denver’s final loss in a 5-11 season. “There are going to be some drastic changes this offseason, and I’m all for it.” Well, now we get to find out how much Miller really means it. If Denver wants to return to the playoffs in 2018, what the team needs is a new leader to set the tone, so Miller can focus on producing more than his 10 quarterback sacks in 2017, which ranked 18th in the NFL. Miller turns 29 in March. When I asked him if he felt like an old bull, Miller laughed and replied: “No, not yet. I still have like 12 or 15 (years left). I hate to say that ‘old’ word.” How many prime seasons, however, does Miller realistically have left? Three? Maybe four? If the Broncos want to avoid the pain of a lengthy rebuild, they need a quarterback who can not only lead touchdown drives but command respect in a locker room full of strong personalities.

It’s great being back here and seeing all the guys, meeting all the new guys and it just feels great to get back in Denver and start working.” On QB Peyton Manning “It’s really exciting. He’s a great player, he’s experienced, and to have him out here working with us is an honor. We’re just going to take it one day at a time and see where it takes us.” On his interactions with QB Peyton Manning “I’ve spoken with him via text over the break and stuff. Our schedule is different in there than the offense’s is. I’m sure we’ll pull each other aside and we’ll talk, but I haven’t had a chance to just sit down and talk to him yet.” On how big of a jump he expects to make this year “I don’t know. I guess we’ll have to see when the season comes. I just want to take it one day at a time, just continue to be the linebacker that I want to be, continue to be the linebacker that my teammates want me to be. I know that if I just take it one day at a time, I’ll get there.” On Defensive Coordinator Jack Del Rio “He’s a great coach.
