Good Morning, Broncos fans! Denver released their cleanest injury report of the year yesterday, as only Andre' Goodman missed practice and is expected not to play Monday night. Robert Ayers and Darcel McBath were limited participants but are expected to play. The Dolts were still without Antonio Gates and Ryan Mathews, while four players were limited for San Diego in practice yesterday. Oh, and Andre Brown is back for more on the Broncos' practice squad. Have a great Friday, everyone! Trivia Trough later...

David Bruton answers (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverbroncos.com%2Fnews-and-blogs%2Farticle-1%2FHelmets-Off-David-Bruton%2F060300d8-de58-4d30-9504-00132f29ea20) a few questions from Gray Caldwell.


Don Banks found little support (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fsportsillustrated.cnn.com%2F2010 %2Fwriters%2Fdon_banks%2F11%2F18%2Fnfl.running.up. score%2Findex.html%3Feref%3Dwriters) in football circles for Todd Haley's hissy fit on Sunday.


Klis on just how far Mario Haggan has come to his place as a key

contributor (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2Fc i_16653896) in Denver.


Can Eddie Royal reprise his exceptional return game (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2Fc i_16653644) from last year's MNF visit to San Diego?


Mason on new Broncos LB David Veikune, who thinks his versatility (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fmaxdenver.com%2Fblog1%2F2010%2F1 1%2F19%2Fveikune-hopes-versatility-helps-his-cause%2F) appealed to the team.


The well-traveled RB Andre Brown is again back (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fmaxdenver.com%2Fblog1%2F2010%2F1 1%2F18%2Fnotes-browns-long-strange-trip-back-to-broncos%2F) on the Broncos' practice squad after the Panthers released him.


Legwold speculates on why DJ Williams has been tight-lipped (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2Fc i_16653914) regarding his DUI arrest last week.

Notes (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2Fc i_16653335) from Legwold.


Krieger already has his second article (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2Fc i_16653897) up about the campaign for orange jerseys. Go figure...


Legwold tries to make the case that "one-dimensional" offenses can win in the NFL. His proof? (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2Fc i_16651047) The Colts, who are led by one of the best QBs in history, and the Dolts - who have one of today's very best QBs and are actually middle-of-the-road in terms of rushing yardage this season (16th in the NFL). Okay, Jeff...


FWIW, the Broncos will have appeared on MNF for 19 straight seasons (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2 F2010%2F11%2F18%2Fbroncos-have-longest-running-monday-night-streak%2F5871%2F), the

most of any team today.


Hopefully Josh McDaniels won't find himself amid any behavior-related scandals (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fcbs4denver.com%2Fbroncos%2Fdenve r.broncos.san.2.2015447.html) come Monday.


Former Denver GM Ted Sundquist is gathering up (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.denverpost.com%2Fbroncos%2Fc i_16653648) one-time Broncos over in the UFL.

Dolts


Unfortunately for the Broncos, Phil Rivers has his starting receivers back (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.signonsandiego.com%2Fnews%2F 2010%2Fnov%2F18%2Fhamstrung-no-more-floyd-and-naanee-back%2F).


RB Ryan Mathews thinks he will play (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.signonsandiego.com%2Fnews%2F 2010%2Fnov%2F18%2Fmathews-optimistic%2F) Monday, but in limited fashion.

Antonio Gates is still uncertain he'll be able to.


Acee's notes (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.signonsandiego.com%2Fnews%2F 2010%2Fnov%2F18%2Fnotebook-crayton-coming-big%2F) on the Dolts.


ESPN's Ron Jaworski thinks there will be balls flying all over the place (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.signonsandiego.com%2Fnews%2F 2010%2Fnov%2F18%2Fespn-eager-monday-night-aerial-show%2F) on Monday night.

Todd Haley is glad Matt Cassel didn't ask out (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kansascity.com%2F2010%2F11%2 F18%2F2450695%2Fcassels-leadership-in-drubbing.html) of Sunday's drubbing.N

Chefs LB Mark Simoneau announced his retirement (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kansascity.com%2F2010%2F11%2 F18%2F2450691%2Fformer-k-state-player-simoneau.html) after hitting IR.


Tafur on the recent impact (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sfgate.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Farticle.cgi%3Ff%3D%2Fc%2Fa%2F2010%2F11%2F19% 2FSPAK1GE6EH.DTL%26amp%3Bfeed%3Drss.raiders) of Jokeland's defensive line.

Trimmings


The NFLPA is seeking the help of Congress in trying to prevent a lockout (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nfl.com%2Fnews%2Fstory%2F090 00d5d81c3546e%2Farticle%2Fnflpa-goes-to-washington-looks-to-congress-on-lockout).


Matt Bowen wraps up (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nationalfootballpost.com%2FG ame-notes-BearsDolphins.html) the Bears' 16-0 victory in Miami.


While his team was getting shut out, Brandon Marshall earned a taunting penalty (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nationalfootballpost.com%2FI s-there-heat-between-Cutler-and-Marshall.html) for throwing a ball at his boy Jay Cutler. Oh, and he dropped two passes and came up lame, to boot.


Pat Kirwan is looking forward to (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nfl.com%2Fnews%2Fstory%2F090 00d5d81c388dd%2Farticle%2Ffavres-potential-last-meeting-vs-packers-tops-week-11-stories%3Fmodule%3DHP_cp2) what may be Brett Favruh's last matchup with the Packers, among other things this weekend.


In response to Bowen's explanation of blitzing from the defense's perspective, Randy Cross tells us how to overcome the blitz (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nationalfootballpost.com%2FB eating-the-Blitz.html).


Jack Bechta on how the NFL will utilize new media (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nationalfootballpost.com%2FN ew-media-and-the-NFL.html) in the future.


Luis DeLoureiro checks out the extreme performances (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Ffifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com%2F20 10%2F11%2F19%2Fthe-good-and-bad-garrard%2F%3Fpartner%3Drss%26amp%3Bemc%3Drss) of David Garrard. Kyle Orton is still third in his QB efficiency ratings.


The Broncos hardly stand a chance according to Brian Burke's game probabilities (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Ffifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com%2F20 10%2F11%2F18%2Fweek-11-n-f-l-game-probabilities%2F%3Fpartner%3Drss%26amp%3Bemc%3Drss ).


TV host James Brown has a pretty serious business (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nytimes.com%2F2010%2F11%2F21 %2Fsports%2Ffootball%2F21brown.html%3Fpartner%3Drs s%26amp%3Bemc%3Drss) aside from football.


KSK captionizes (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fkissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com%2F2 010%2F11%2Flolnfl-week-10-2010.html) Week 10.


Last night was apparently a Matt Millen/Rod Marinelli suckfest (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fkissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com%2F2 010%2F11%2Fmatt-millen-forever-loves-the-rod.html).


In case you've ever wondered why there are no Alex Marvez links here (ever), this should explain it (http://www.itsalloverfatman.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fkissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com%2F2 010%2F11%2Fgreat-moments-in-lede-writing-history-alex-marvez.html).
