Thread: Brandon McManus named AFC Special Teams player of the month

He's supplied most of our points lately, so this is probably well deserved. Good job, Brandon!

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – After kicking a pair of game-winning field goals, kicker Brandon McManus has been named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Month for October.

The honor is first in his career and the ninth conference special teams player of the month recognition in Broncos history since the award was initiated in 1993.

This month, McManus connected on 10-of-11 field goals and all five PATs as the Broncos posted a 3-0 record in October. He led all AFC players with 11.7 points per game in October, totaling 35 points in Denver’s three games.

McManus’ two game-winning field goals were the first of his career – a 39-yarder in Week 4 (10/4) against Minnesota (1:15 remaining in 4th qtr.) and a 34-yarder in Week 6 (10/18) at Cleveland (4:56 remaining in overtime).

Nope. Not yet. Hopefully the FO can work one out soon.

Hope he can go to the Pro Bowl!

I hope he can't because he is in the super bowl.

Good for him. ..it's cool to see his work in the offseason pay off.

I think his only miss so far is from 50+.

Definitely agree with diaperdan on this one. We must lock him up. Id hate to see him go. When you get a great kicker like this he should be your kicker the next 10-15 years
