ENGLEWOOD [url=http://www.thebroncosclub.com/dalton-risner-jersey/]Cheap Dalton Risner Jersey[/url] , Colo. (AP) — not be done shuffling backup quarterbacks.General manager John Elway said Tuesday that he might still sign a veteran to back up starting QB Case Keenum if he doesn’t feel Chad Kelly can win games in a pinch.“I’m not going to tell you we’re definitely going to stand pat, but I’m not telling you we’re going (in) that direction, either,” Elway told 103.5 The Fox radio station in Denver.The Broncos promoted Kelly over former first-round pick Paxton Lynch this week following their contrasting performances in training camp and in the preseason opener last weekend, when Lynch threw for just 24 yards over seven series with the second string. Kelly had a pair of touchdowns in mop-up duty against the Minnesota Vikings.“We’ve got to have confidence that that guy that’s going to be the backup can play and win football games,” Elway said. “And so that’s why we’re still in that process of trying to see if we’ve got that guy behind Case.“Even though Chad played very well on Saturday night — we’ll see how he does this week — but if something were to happen to Case, can he come in and continue to win football games for us?” Elway said. “That’s the big part of the evaluation process and that’s still going on.”Kelly will get plenty of work with the second stringers as the Broncos host the Chicago Bears for joint practices Wednesday and Thursday before their preseason game Saturday night in Denver.Kelly, whose uncle in NFL Hall of Famer Jim Kelly, threw for 97 touchdowns and 29 interceptions during a collegiate career that began at Clemson (2012-13), continued at East Mississippi Junior College (2014) and finished at Ole Miss (2015-16).Elway selected him with the final pick of the 2017 NFL draft, but Kelly missed his rookie season while recovering from wrist and knee injuries, watching as the Broncos rolled through quarterbacks Trevor Siemian, Brock Osweiler and Lynch during a 5-11 season.Osweiler wasn’t re-signed in the offseason and Siemian was traded after Keenum’s arrival in March, when Elway declared the backup job up for grabs.Kelly had a solid offseason and consistently outplayed Lynch, the former Memphis QB whom Elway moved up to draft in the first round in 2016 following Peyton Manning’s retirement.Kelly completed 14 of 21 passes for 177 yards, two TDs and an interception against the Vikings while the crowd serenaded him with chants of “Kelly! Kelly!”“He’s had a great camp, he’s a competitive guy, he comes out and he works hard. He wants to be good,” Elway said. “And so, he’s the type of guy that you love to have on your football team. So, he did a great job the other night and we’ll see how he does this week.”Coach Vance Joseph said Tuesday that Lynch was mad and miffed over the switch .“He is upset. He didn’t like it. He wants to know why,” Joseph said. “And he has to play better. It’s as simple as that. It’s a competition. It’s the league. Everyone’s doing this. No one’s not playing their best players.“And it’s really more about Chad. Chad has competed and Chad’s played well. Because if Chad’s not playing well [url=http://www.broncosjerseyproshop.com/von-miller-jersey/]Von Miller Jersey[/url] , (Lynch) is still a 2. So, it’s really more about what Chad has done from the spring to now.” A few more observations from the Broncos’ 14-10 win over the Falcons." Denver Broncos Preseason Hall of Fame Game highlights some interesting players to watch going forwardNew,42commentsA few more observations from the Broncos’ 14-10 win over the Falcons.MDTShare this storyShare this on FacebookShare this on TwitterShareAll sharing optionsShareAll sharing options for: Hall of Fame Game highlights some interesting players to watch going forwardTwitterFacebookRedditPocketFlipboardEmailThe Hall of Fame Game has always been special because of the event it honors, and that was no different when the Denver Broncos rolled into Canton to honor the late Pat Bowlen and star cornerback Champ Bailey.And as if Bailey’s Mile High Salute as he was introduced before the game weren’t enough, in his sideline interview he masterfully pointed out the raw deal Broncos have gotten over the years in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.Although the 14-10 victory was a bit of a sleeper, for a lot of players, it was a good chance - possibly their only chance - to get game reps they haven’t had.Vic Fangio, in his head coaching debut complete with kidney stones, summed up the game best by acknowledging that winning always feels good.“As we all know, nobody is in there doing cheetah flips and cartwheels about [the win], like they would in a regular season game, but winning has cured more ills than penicillin,” he said. “It’s always nice to win.”The Broncos scored mid-way through the first quarter and then not again until just 1:33 left in the game, but it was enough for the go-ahead touchdown and the lead. First-year running back Khalfani Muhammad scored the first touchdown of the game from the three-yard line and finished as the top rusher and receiver for the Broncos.Former CU Buff wideout Juwann Winfree - one of many receivers trying to crack the roster - caught a 15-yard touchdown pass from undrafted rookie Brett Rypien on a tipped ball to score on a 4th-and-14 play.Despite the game being a contest between the backups, Fangio didn’t want to downplay the significance of what the Hall of Fame game honors. Having coached in four Hall of Fame games, he said it’s “always cool to be here for this game” to honor former great players and coaches.And although everyone but Fangio made a big deal out of his “debut” as a head coach, he was as down-to-earth as ever after the experience.“I wouldn’t use the words ‘soaked in and enjoy.’ I just haven’t been overly fazed by the next step up,” Fangio said, pointing out that it’s not all that different from coaching one side of the ball. “I’m not trying to make light of it. ...It hasn’t happened to me yet. I’m sure it will at some point.”The coach had some praise for a few players, including Dre’Mont Jones, Winfree and possibly Justin Hollins and DeMarcus Walker, but the coach was making no statements until he has time to look at the tape.“Well obviously [url=http://www.broncosjerseyproshop.com/joe-flacco-jersey/]Joe Flacco Jersey[/url] , Dre’Mont had some nice plays there at the end. Winfree made the acrobatic catch. Those were some of the guys, but I need to watch the tape first,” he said, adding that Walker told him he had a good game. “He came right up to me after the game and he was talking some smack. We’ll see, I’m anxious to see...But he did tell me he played well.”So as we wait for Fangio’s more detailed evaluation of the players, here are a few of my observations following the first game of 2019.The quarterbacksNone of the backup QBs playing Thursday night were overly impressive, but Hogan did show an ability to make plays - proving why the Broncos have put Hogan as their No. 2 quarterback. Hogan finished the night with possibly the worst stats of the trio, but he was effective in leading a drive that delivered the team’s first touchdown.Fangio noted, however, that often Hogan didn’t give his receivers enough to work with.“I think Kevin is the winningest quarterback in the history of Stanford football, so he’s been around of a lot of good football, played good football and I’m not surprised,” he said. “But I think he could have played better, too. Some of the drops he had, the ball placement was not great. Made what should have been easier catches harder catches. The guys should have caught them, but they didn’t. I think he is capable of better.”Hogan also should eat up the pass-rushing hits Broncos fans want Drew Lock and Joe Flacco to avoid while the offensive line works out some early kinks in the preseason.The running backsOn the heels of Denver signing Theo Riddick to a one-year dealBroncos running backs coach Curtis Modkins helped Riddick along as a rookie in Detroit. The Broncos have often had more serviceable running backs than they know what to do with, and if I’m another franchise, I’m keeping a close eye on what Denver chooses to do with Muhammad and/or Jackson.Veterans needing to prove their worthA handful of third-year players are looking to prove they are worthy of staying on the roster, including left tackle Garret Bolles and safety Su’a Cravens. Both made a standout play in the game, and for me it’s safe to say both look ready to roll for 2019. It’s impossible not to be drawn in by the speed at which Cravens plays the game. Defensive end DeMarcus Walker also turned in a sack and looked comfortable playing his traditional defensive end position rather than outside linebacker.Standout rookiesMeanwhile, Malik Reed must have been watching tape of the great Von Miller as he dreams of making this Denver roster. Reed dipped his shoulder and got around the edge with ease on his first sack of the preseason. High speed and keeping a low profile are staples of Miller’s game. Denver’s pass rush is lethal — just straight lethal — as opposing QBs will be forced to make a decision in a matter of seconds.Matching edge pressure with a push up the middle will be what Fangio’s defense is known for up front.
