Scrolling through my twitter feed, basking in the post victory glow, I saw a number of noteworthy tweets worth sharing with you, Broncos Country. Instead of jamming them into a comment somewhere, I decided to make this into a quick weekly article. Some of these tweets aren’t terribly relevant (Shaq Barrett’s tweet for instance) but this will mostly be interesting quotes and insider thoughts on the previous day’s game. Also, I don’t agree with all the viewpoints shared in this article, and C.J. Anderson is not the next Montee Ball.
Before I start, I hope the fan who fell over the rail at last night’s game is ok. This type of thing happens all too often, and can be devastating. I wish them a quick recovery.
So glad we got the win its all about the W so 4 fantasy ppl plz sit me 4 17 weeks ???? ?

Malik Jackson being evaluated for concussion. #Broncos down to 4 d-linemen for now. #BALvsDEN

Sprained toe for CJ Anderson. I saw it. Looked gnarly. Almost threw up. Get that pedi, CJ.

You thought Peyton Manning was under pressure a lot – Joe Flacco was pressured on 64.7% of his dropbacks vs Denver

I was a below average high school wide receiver and at 32 years old I throw with better velocity than Peyton Manning.

#DENvsBAL would be the 1st since 06 that both teams had a pick 6 and neither had a passing TD http://t.co/CVfOC9qIVX pic.twitter.com/UYJ9d0o8jT

DeMarcus Ware's sack of Joe Flacco at the end of the first quarter is NSFW.

Retweet if you threw as many TD passes as Joe Flacco today.

C.J. Anderson = Montee Ball 2.0? Ronnie Hillman looks good…
— Michael Fabiano (@Michael_Fabiano) September 13, 2015
Broncos made 8 of 18 3rd downs – not a bad number. Ronnie Hillman had a fine day – when he didn't get yardage, he was hit in the backfield

And my personal favorites…
Elevators are all jacked up here at the stadium. Broncos assistants can't get downstairs. I blame the Patriots.
