    Default Broncos players offer mixed reactions to Thursday's color rush uniforms

    CENTENNIAL, Colo. -- Form follows function and colors follow emotions. As such, it is a ripe coincidence that the finally victorious Broncos will suit up Thursday night in uniforms so bright it will make hunters blush.

    Their confidence and smiles are back. And yet....

    In a locker room of 63 players, the retina-burning orange jerseys and pants bring mixed reviews. Color me not surprised.

    "Pumpkin. I will look like a pumpkin," running back C.J. Anderson said, referring to his squatty build. "I will be a pumpkin trying to have a Cinderella night."

    I’m told not only will #broncos safety Justin Simmons miss Thursday’s game vs the #colts with a left ankle injury, the team will also be placing him on injured reserve.

    They are shutting it down and resting players whose injuries limit them. It's a lost season so there's no point hurting the long term play of guys who will be on next years' roster. Justin Simmons will be a starting safety next year so he can just rehab from here on out. If they were making a SB run they'd be trying to rush him back in time for the playoffs.

    But, "Playoffs???? Don't talk about PLAYOFFS!!!"

    The game was fun to watch on TV, but I imagine that it had little value from a film study perspective. Even if you could see everyone, no one was running their normal offense anyway.

    The weirdest thing about the Simmons injury is that it came when he was celebrating a big play on defense (the Marshall strip sack, I believe). The first time they've had something to celebrate in two months and he gets hurt jumping up and down about it.

    I’m actually surprised that VJ watches tape. I’m serious. I assumed the coordinators, position coaches, and players all watched tape, but with the complete lack of preparation the team shows and being devoid of any real HC style adjustments, I figured he just didn’t worry about it.

    I know people think I’m joking, but I’m not. I figured the leader of men just had his assistants handle it while he stood looking “puzzled” on the sidelines.
