All I've heard so far is that Emmanuel's x-ray was negative.

I think you meant Ward? If so, they just believe Simmons has more athleticism and longevity. If you mean Ware... he didn't let him go, Ware retired.

Emmanuel Sanders, Isaiah McKenzie each have ankle sprains, but no breaks. They will miss game vs. LA Chargers at least, per source. #9sports

RT Menelik Watson could miss time with his calf injury. Vance Joseph to address media shortly.

Joseph said he's "not sure" if they'll make a move to bolster OL with Turner out and Watson day-to-day. Have Stephenson, Barbre as options.

Joseph: “It’s really a small-picture focus right now.” Not focused on the 3-game road swing, just one game vs. Chargers.

#Broncos Vance Joseph says they are determining whether or not to bring someone up at WR (off the PS) or sign a free agent @1043TheFan

Damn. I thought Billy Turner at least looked serviceable when he came in for Watson.

Reminds me of last year's OL and QB sitch. Some rando in a Broncos jersey lining up outside RG like it's drama class auditions for football player. And a QB that likes to move in the pocket to enhance his sackability.

It's like hot tub time machine, but with suck. Cold tub time machine.

I think this is a big issue.....our offense does not function without a ground game. Period. And in today's NFL that is a major problem. Giants loaded box and went man to man a lot and we could not take advantage of that. Did not see many "pick plays" that McCoy used with manning. Or hitting the slot guy much with their weak CB defending.

#Broncos McKenzie told me suffered low ankle sprain. That's good news. @DenverChannel

Denver is just screwed at QB and that is on Elway, same with not addressing the ILB position, LG, and RT.

If we are going to do better on offense, McCoy has to figure out something with Siemian and work on a style that can help him out. The offense looks like it has no composure, no hustle, and no direction. If the run game gets shut down then it's lights out.

Someone should create a virtual reality headset that coaches can load scenarios into and use that to work with player development.

You are beyond over reacting about the defense just becase they had one sub par game they all of a sudden arent the number one defense in the league through 5 game's? Even after last night there still likely to be number one. The defense had a semi off night and once again the offense led by Trevor could do absolutely nothing but put our struggling defense is worst spots and go 3 and punt consistently. Our defense is just fine, scheme is just fine, engram was just a match up problem for the inside backers.
