The Broncos signed center Chris Myers to a 4-year, $11 million dollar contract and then they traded him to the Houston Texans for a 6th round pick in the 2008 NFL Draft.  Myers started all 16 games for the Broncos last season.  He played in 41 games and started 16 of them in his three seasons for the Broncos.  It doesn’t seem as if the Broncos got fair value for Myers.

The Denver Broncos outlasted the Vikings who had a huge 4th quarter to send the game into OT.  Jay Cutler led the way with another outstanding game as he completed 26 of 37 passes for 246 yards with 2 TD passes.  Selvin Young carried the bulk of the running load as he carried the ball 22 times for 87 yards (4.0 ypc).  Brandon Marshall (10 rec, 114 yards, TD) and Tony Scheffler (7 rec, 52 yards, TD) both had outstanding games.  The Broncos finished up with 128 yards rushing on 27 carries (4.7 ypc) and they also completed 26 of 37 passes for 234 yards.

John Lynch (9 tackles) and D.J. Williams (8 tackles) led the way for the Broncos defense.  The Vikings finished up with 172 yards rushing on 27 carries (6.4 ypc) and they also completed 16 of 31 passes for 160 yards.

The Broncos are lucky that the Chargers called off the dogs in this game!  The Broncos only had possession of the football for 23:17 of this game and it’s almost impossible to win that way.  Jay Cutler had a bad game as he only completed 14 of 32 passes for 155 yards with 2 interceptions.  He also carried the football 3 times for 42 yards (14.0 ypc).  Selvin Young led the running backs in rushing yards with 39 on 10 carries (3.9 ypc).  Brandon Marshall had a solid game with 6 catches for 75 yards (12.5 avg).  The Broncos finished up with 92 yards rushing on 19 carries (4.8 ypc) and they also completed 14 of 32 passes for 133 yards.

D.J. Williams led the way for the Broncos Defense with 12 tackles.  The Chargers finished up with 147 yards on 38 carries (3.9 ypc) and they also completed 18 of 28 passes for 187 yards.
