John Fox, on Philip Rivers: "Very good, he's had a very productive year ... pretty intense competitor, so we'll have our hands full."

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 9m9 minutes ago

Fox: "We're just trying to win games...we'll lean on whatever we have to lean on. We're just trying to be efficient at both (run/pass)."

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 8m8 minutes ago

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 7m7 minutes ago

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 7m7 minutes ago

Fox on external concern about Manning "Our passing game is fine.You never know, we might put foot on the gas and throw it 50 times" #Broncos

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 5m5 minutes ago

Fox: Bruton's performance Sunday was "tremendous ... might be the best game at safety that I've seen him play."

Troy Renck ‏@TroyRenck 5m5 minutes ago

Fox said that "There's no quarterback I'd rather have than Peyton Manning. It just so happens that we have leaned a little more on run."

Jeff Legwold ‏@Jeff_Legwold 56s56 seconds ago

#Broncos HC John Fox said LB Danny Trevathan would be back in lineup this week if "healthy enough.'' Trevathan eligible to play Sunday.

HUGE Boost to the defense with Danny T back!

Now do they put him at Mike and keep brandon marshall at WILL?

Either/or. But yeah, they need both those guys out there with Von. As I said in the game day thread, though, the reports I'm seeing say they're going to ease Trevathan back in, so I suspect he won't see that many snaps against the Chargers.

I think Marshall has done a great job where he is. Danny may be more versatile to move perhaps.

[Slick]

Props to Bruton filling in. I think he had 9 tackles.

He was a boss in that game.

[DenBronx]

I cant remember who but someone on these boards awhile back was petitioning to cut Bruton.

[NightTerror218]

I would put Marshall at MLB. Travathan was better last season than Marshall this season. Travathan is better in coverage too IMO.

[DenBronx]

Yeah I dont see how Danny T doesnt get back on the field somehow. Marshall has been outstanding in Dannys absense though. So...maybe try Danny at MLB like someone else said earlier.

[SoCalImport]

Don't think Marshall would hold up to playing MLB. Trevian at least has a bit more meat on his bones
