Good afternoon, #BroncosCountry –
Happy Friday! We hope you're decked out in orange and blue today, and have made sure to show your Broncos allegiance to any Vikings fans (like this guy). Sunday should be a beautiful day at Sports Authority Field at Mile High, but while you're patiently waiting, here are three storylines you should get caught up on before then, starting with our favorite quarterback:
1. Manning talks with KOA Peyton Manning wears his jersey all day before a game?
That's just one thing that he claimed to be true on his weekly segment with 850KOA (Although, we're not sure we believe him — he's got jokes).
In this week's conversation with Dave Logan, Manning also talked about the offense's strides in the win against Detroit and how they're preparing for the Vikings defense.
"What you see on film is impressive," Manning said. "When you watch their defense – they're active, they play real hard. They do a good job of communicating, which I think is impressive."
Listen to it all here:
2. Harris discusses life as an undrafted free agent
Since his days playing high school football, cornerback Chris Harris Jr. has considered himself an underdog. Not highly recruited out of Oklahoma and then went undfrafted out of college, Harris uses the opinions of others as motivation.
That motivation is obviously working, considering that Harris hasn't allowed a touchdown since the 2013 season.
Harris was featured on SI Now Live this week talking about his mentality this season:
3. In case you missed it…
- Bruton delivers on promise to be defensive factor
- Broncos' transformation on defense extends beyond the field
- Local sports stars lend their voices to DIA
