I think he's referencing in the past when he lost his job to Hillman.

Sometime last week.

He also lost it to Hillman last year.

I didn't realize that. I missed the first little bit of that game.

Some details from Klis:

The procedure could eventually lead to the Denver Broncos’ running back missing the rest of the season, although there is hope he could return for the postseason should the team qualify for an AFC playoff spot. The full extent of the tear won’t be known until the surgeon works inside the knee.

The Broncos are expected to place Anderson on injured reserve as Anderson’s recovery is expected to be eight to 12 weeks. Any player, but not more than one player, can be activated by a team after eight weeks.

The running back iced his knee after the game but when there was greater discomfort on Tuesday morning, he went to the Broncos’ facility for treatment and consultation with trainer Steve “Greek” Antonopulos and team doctors.

They had Anderson undergo an MRI exam which revealed to the Broncos’ medical team the type of meniscus tear that required surgery to repair. Anderson sought a second opinion in hopes the knee could recover with rest and rehab and he could return to play in a month or so.

He underwent a second MRI in the Bay Area on Wednesday when doctors there confirmed the Broncos’ initial diagnosis.

Before his surgery that was scheduled for Thursday afternoon, doctors had Anderson come in for one more test as it was unusual he was experiencing no pain or soreness in the knee area and is not walking with a trace of a limp.

C.J. Anderson has a significant meniscus tear in his right knee and will undergo surgery Thursday in Fremont, Calif., sources told 9NEWS.

The procedure could eventually lead to the Denver Broncos’ running back missing the rest of the season, although there is hope he could return for the postseason should the team qualify for an AFC playoff spot. The full extent of the tear won’t be known until the surgeon works inside the knee.

The Broncos are expected to place Anderson on injured reserve as Anderson’s recovery is expected to be eight to 12 weeks. Any player, but not more than one player, can be activated by a team after eight weeks.

Anderson’s surgery will be performed by the practice of Dr. Arthur Ting, a renowned sports knee surgeon whose surgery center is in Fremont, Calif.

It's a good thing the front office realized it's a 2 back league and drafted Booker. We'll have to find a way to take pressure off Booker the rest of the way however. There's still 11 weeks to go and we don't him to average more than 20 cpg, IMO.

Well shit. Give the guy credit for playing hurt for 3 quarters. I have zero faith in Bibbs, figure Thompson is activated. Pass on Spiller.....who else is available? Chris Polk? Bradshaw?

Minnesota signed him after Peterson got hurt. So sadly he isn't available.

Yes, it's devastating.

Yeah, what will we do without the production Minnesota has gotten out of him since Peterson went down?

We're all crushed.
