I feel like Elway in the press box watching Tebow win.

Seriously though, very happy for Knowshon. He's always been a professional here and I think doing the scount team really humbled him.

Tom Nalen was saying working on the scout team they tell you to run like other backs and that may have helped him learn to stop dancing as much.

Keep it going Knowshon!!! I always had your back!!! Hope that when it's all said and done, you will be dishing out crow left and right!!! GO BRONCOS!!!

"Since replacing the injured Willis McGahee in Week 12, Moreno’s averaging 121.8 yards from scrimmage per game, and Adrian Peterson is the only running back with more during that span.

It’s also the seventh player of the week honor for a Bronco this season, a league high.'

wow, impressive. He continues to silence any possible criticism, and silence any chatter of when WM might be back. Of course, the Reed-hurdle helped.

congrats to him. He deserves it.

CEH · 12-19-2012, 07:52 AM

Wow this is great for Knowshown and the team. Whatever he did during his inactive status he sure took it to heart

Great. Where's that poster from last week that was literally complaining, not even sarcastically, that Moreno was no Adrian Peterson? I guess he has his proof!

Tim · 12-19-2012, 08:09 AM

Is it safe to say this yet

Knowshon Moreno > Ryan Mathews?

bfoflcommish · 12-19-2012, 08:15 AM

and this is why PMFM was brought in, he makes everyone around him play better!! Something we have not had since #7 left.

Rohirrim · 12-19-2012, 08:22 AM

This week on As the World Turns, Knowshon Moreno is the hero of Broncos Nation. Tune in for next week's exciting episode.

Kaylore · 12-19-2012, 08:24 AM

We've had eight individual players win this award. That's the sign of a good team.

pricejj · 12-19-2012, 08:29 AM

Knowshon's game against Baltimore was the most impressive game a Broncos RB has had this year.

The will to drive your feet is probably any RB's most important attribute. Knowshon has been showing that drive the last 4 games...he showed it last year before his injury, and it was his primary attribute in college at Georgia.

Knowshon has proven his worth. You can scratch off 'early round RB' from your draft wish list. I'm sure they can find a late round guy to replace Lance Ball.

Moreno, McGahee, and Hillman have what it takes to put the Broncos Offense on their shoulders when necessary.

I think this is attributed more to coaching. Fox and the coaching staff new what buttons to push. But you a are right, it doesn't hurt having Manning around.

Watching the past few games, KM's vision is amazing and when he hits the hole, it is with power and determination. He looks like a faster version of McGahee right now with more athletic ability--ex: hurdling Ed Reed while he is standing up. Dude is straight balling for us right now, and couldnt have happened at a better time.

Didn't we have 2 players of the month as well? Von & Peyton?

Aw shucks. Well if he's not as good as Adrian Peterson, then we'll have to settle for next best, I guess. How disappointing, though!

Awards Watch: Week 15
Coach of the Year

1. John Fox, Broncos (3). Yes, people will pooh-pooh his candidacy and attribute much of Denver's nine straight wins to the greatness of Manning. But don't forget he led the Broncos to a division title last season with Tim Tebow at QB, so it ain't all about Manning.

Yay! I can break out my Moreno jersey the kids gave me a few years ago!

Popps · 12-19-2012, 09:05 AM

Great to hear. This is exactly what a lot of us were talking about when we hoped he could contribute to this team, regardless of where he was taken or who took him. These few performances alone have greatly helped this team. Nice to get some ROI!

Here's hoping he can stay healthy and keep it up!

bronco militia · 12-19-2012, 09:08 AM

it's nice to see him take advantage of this second opportunity.

DAN_BRONCO_FAN · 12-19-2012, 09:15 AM

are we setting any records for a bronco player being named defensive , offensive special team player of the week.
also when are we just going to treat Tebow as a guy who came in won a few games for us and now is a xplayer nice guy not so nice QB
WE GOT PEYTON FING MANNING and a team loaded with defensive talent. lets stick with the present and forget 2011
