Among the new players who do you think has made the biggest defensive impact?

Warren. The man has been a beast. I did see him dropping back in a zone blitz yesterday. I assume Coyer simply did that one time to get it on other teams film of Den. I hope so anyway. LOL

However, one could say Pryce being healthy is the biggest impact.

I'm a huge believer that your DL makes your skill players look good, and since there is only one DL on the poll I selected him.

I would say that the combination of Pryce, Warren, and Brown is lethal. Who do you double? The opponents have just started practicing Grecko-Roman moves when they play Denver.

I picked Warren, too, but it was a close call over Darrent Williams. That kid is such a weapon. His CB blitz on the final series was a huge play.

I thought Curome Cox had a great game! I'm looking forward to seeing more of him. Could he be the rookie diamond in the rough?

Definately DL so I'm going with Warren.

Absolutely true. It appears that the D-line is feeding on the play of each other and the problems that multiple very good players along the same line is creating for the opposing O-line. Sooner or later, the officiating is going to wake up to how many holding penalties are currently being missed and/or let go. I don't think that the Broncos D-line has realized their potential and the league has to stop the blatent holding/intentional grounding. I saw numerous times where Brady, arguably the best QB playing, threw the ball away too soon, erratically, intentionally. He was visibly frustrated...mad at himself and his O-line.

If I had to choose a poll player...DWill. He has performed admirably for a rookie. He rocks players on the hits when he can load up but also doesn't miss many tackles...granted I didn't see the second half of yesterday's game so...

I have a tough time choosing between Gold and Warren, but Gerard gets it by default because he has given us excellent production in the pass rush and in run support. His acquisition was huge for our Dline. It allows Trevor to be Trevor and Brown, Engleberger, Ekuban to do their jobs.

Gold has been Pro-Bowl worthy this season also.

Definitely a tough call. I can't get over how we hit in the draft this year. Darrent is playing at an unbelievable level. Speed, instinct, guts. I'd like to see him devote some time after practice to fielding punts though.

Blasphemy. :)

I'd go with Warren No. 1, the Kids at corner no. 2.

Warren for sure. The DL as a whole is making everyone better. Its awesome that we have posion. The OL has to choose which guy to double, then the other one will be 1-1 and can take advantage of that. Too bad they got tackled in the 2nd half or else they would have killed Brady.

It wasn't me (I haven't voted, yet), but Foxworth has been more than adequate filling in for Champ.

Warren, for all the reasons already stated.
