ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- For most of those whose vocational life is professional football, the ring is the thing.
The Super Bowl ring is the reason, as Bill Parcells famously said, “you lift all those weights." But when you win one, the question then becomes how to avoid the hangover that comes with it. That’s exactly where the Denver Broncos find themselves as they begin the second week of their offseason.
“And that’s where people are going to find out what kind of team we have," cornerback Aqib Talib said. “Because we have a bunch of super-competitive guys ... And that’s what we have to be is super competitive."
The Broncos weren’t always pretty last season and sometimes looked as if they had no chance of hoisting the Lombardi Trophy. But they were always gritty, strong-willed and played with a close-the-deal toughness that was the hallmark of the franchise’s third Super Bowl winner.
