TD MEMORIES FROM THE DESERT Before beginning his career in the Mile High City, Jake Plummer earned a reputation as one of the most exciting, upand-coming NFL quarterbacks while playing his first six seasons with Arizona.

The Broncos face off against a familiar opponent Friday night in the Cardinals, who have played Denver 15 times in the preseason. Those 15 meetings against the Cardinals franchise make it Denver s second most common preseason opponent. Of note is the fact that the Broncos play all three of their most common preseason opponents listed below during the 2005 exhibition schedule. MOST COMMON BRONCOS PRESEASON OPPONENTS Franchise Meetings Record 1. San Francisco Arizona Indianapolis Note: The Broncos have met Dallas, Oakland, Miami and Minnesota 11 times during the preseason. THE LAST TIME (Preseason) Arizona 33, at Denver 21 (INVESCO FIELD AT MILE HIGH, 9/2/04) Despite scoring 21 points in the second half, the Broncos could not overcome a slow start in their final preseason game against Arizona and were defeated by the Cardinals at INVESCO Field at Mile High. Denver, playing in its fifth preseason game, rested most of its top unit and dressed few regular first-teamers against Arizona. The Cardinals raced to a 26-0 lead in the third quarter before Denver was able to put any points on the board. Rookie quarterback Matt Mauck got most of the snaps for the Broncos, completing 13-of-22 passes for a game-high 194 yards and his first NFL touchdown. Wide receivers Charlie Adams and Nate Jackson both had strong nights with five catches each for 84 and 76 yards, respectively. Defensive tackle Mario Fatafehi recorded two of Denver s three sacks against Arizona. Cardinals kicker Neil Rackers connected on 45 and 47-yard field goal attempts in the first quarter as Arizona took a quick 6-0 lead. Two possessions later, the Cardinals went ahead 13-0 after covering 77 yards on a drive that concluded with a 1-yard scoring run by Josh Scobey. Offensively, the Broncos struggled early on and did not cross the 50-yard line until there was less than a minute remaining in the first half. Mauck, in relief of Danny Kanell, was hit in his own end zone on first-and-10 at 6:27 of the second quarter by Calvin Pace and could not hold onto the ball. The fumble was picked up by Ross Kolodziej for a touchdown and a 20-0 Cardinals lead. Mauck exacted a bit of revenge in the third quarter with the Broncos trailing He led a seven-play, 84-yard drive, which began with an 18-yard reception by Jackson and ended with the receiver s 24-yard touchdown grab, for the Broncos first score of the game. Rookie running back Tatum Bell, who ran for a game-high 69 yards, set up the score a play earlier by breaking away on a 21- yard run. After Arizona went ahead 33-7 late in the third quarter on its next possession when Larry Croom scored on a 4-yard touchdown, Mauck used three completions covering 43 yards to tight end Byron Chamberlain to set up a 5-yard scoring run by Bell and bring Denver within a deficit. Mauck was replaced by fellow rookie Bradlee Van Pelt with 5:13 left in the fourth quarter. In his first appearance of the preseason in front of many of the fans who watched him star at Colorado State, Van Pelt showed promise with back-to-back completions of 27 and 29 yards. When he could not spot an open receiver on first-and-10 from the Cardinals 14, Van Pelt took off around the right side of the line and made it into the end zone for the score to cap off a 7- play, 84-yard drive.!"#$"%&-.&-%/0(#-&&&&&&&&&&&&& &!&@&!&& :6;:<3;:=

LAST WEEK S GAME at DENVER 37, INDIANAPOLIS 24 (INVESCO FIELD AT MILE HIGH, 8/27/05) The Denver Broncos defeated the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday night at INVESCO Field at Mile High by a score of 37-24, improving to 3-0 in the preseason. The Colts dropped to 0-4 in exhibition play. The Broncos were led by the offensive efforts of running back Mike Anderson and wide receiver Ashley Lelie. Anderson had a game-high 159 yards on 13 carries while Lelie brought in five receptions for 104 yards. The Denver defense used a strong blitz attack, totaling six sacks. Broncos defensive end John Engelberger was responsible for three of those sacks. Denver s offense struck first in the opening quarter with their second possession on the night. With a first down at the 7-yard line, Anderson broke free for a 93-yard touchdown run that marked the longest Denver scoring run in the preseason and tied for the fourth longest scoring play during the preseason. The defense forced the Colts to punt on the ensuing possession. Fullback Kyle Johnson partially blocked the punt to set up the Broncos at the Indianapolis 38-yard line. Denver was able to get the ball to the 13-yard line, setting up a 31-yard field goal by Jason Elam and a 10-0 lead. The Colts put themselves on the scoreboard with a 28-yard field goal by Mike Vanderjagt with 9:31 left in the first half. On their next possession, Colts quarterback Peyton Manning engineered a quick drive from midfield that was capped off by a 27-yard touchdown reception by Reggie Wayne to tie the score at 10. Plummer marched the Broncos into Colts territory in three plays. On the fourth play of the drive, Plummer connected with wide receiver Ashley Lelie for a 40-yard touchdown, putting the Broncos back in the lead by a score of Manning and the Colts got the ball back with 3:44 on the clock and quickly moved down the field. With the ball at the Denver 18- yard line and 32 seconds on the clock, Manning fired to receiver Marvin Harrison for a touchdown to tie the game at 17 at the half. Broncos wide receiver Todd Devoe forced the Colts Jerome Dennis to fumble the opening kickoff return of the second half, giving Denver possession at the Colts 30-yard line. Anderson scored from the 2-yard line four plays later to regain a 7-point lead, On the scoring play, Broncos defensive tackle Gerard Warren was inserted on offense as the lead blocker. In Plummer s final action of the night, he marched the Broncos down to the Colts 10-yard line to set up a 28-yard Elam field goal. Running back Quentin Griffin took over the running duties in the fourth quarter and advanced the Broncos to the Indianapolis 20-yard line. Elam was called upon again to try a 38-yard field goal, which sailed through the uprights, giving Denver a advantage. With less than two minutes remaining in the contest, Colts quarterback Jim Sorgi took the Colts down to the 12-yard line before setting up a touchdown pass to receiver Brad Pyatt, cutting the lead to The ensuing onside kick by Dave Rayner and the Colts failed as receiver Charlie Adams recovered the ball at the Colts 37-yard line. Quarterback Bradlee Van Pelt found tight end Jeb Putzier for a 28-yard touchdown pass to seal the win by a final score of POST-GAME QUOTES at DENVER 37, INDIANAPOLIS 24 (INVESCO FIELD AT MILE HIGH, 8/27/05) HEAD COACH MIKE SHANAHAN: On the play of RB Mike Anderson, who rushed for 159 yards and had a 93-yard touchdown run It was real nice to see Mike make a big play like that. It s very seldom to see a back in the National Football League break for 93 yards, and to see Mike do that was pretty impressive. I really had a chance to watch Mike in the offseason program, so you get a chance to evaluate a guy on a day-to-day basis. We really felt that Mike was in great shape, and we had no question in our minds that he was completely healthy. On WR Ashley Lelie recording 104 receiving yards I think people forget that last year, he led the National Football League in yards per catch last year. He has been very good coming up with big plays and (generating) a lot of penalties against him and even when he didn t come up with the big play. We really thought he could take his game to a different level. He has become more consistent and he has been doing that in camp. He s not there yet by no means, but he s fighting for the ball and he s more aggressive. His intermediate routes are getting better and he s natural at the big play.!"#$"%&-.&-%/0(#-&&&&&&&&&&&&& &!&E&!&& :6;:<3;:=

7 On the defense s play against Colts QB Peyton Manning You never stop that guy, very few teams stop him, and so it was a great challenge for us. I was a little disappointed in our offense because you can t go three-and-out four times and go 0-for-4 on third downs and slow that team up. You have to control the game offensively, but I was really pleased because the last time we played in the playoffs, we were 1-for-5 in the first half on third downs, and we were 0-for-4 today, so to beat a football team like that consistently, you have to do a better job on offense. Even though he had some big plays, they only had 17 points, and we understand what it takes to beat a team like that consistently, so I thought overall, we kept them from getting some big plays and obviously, we weren t perfect but we made some strides. On the play of Broncos DE Trevor Pryce I don t know to be honest with you There s so much more than watching the guy sack the quarterback. What does he do in the run game, how does he play the defense? I really have a hard time telling how a defensive lineman plays until I look at the film. The obvious is sacks, and Trevor had two last week and he played much better than he did against Houston, and I hope he played accordingly today. On evaluating the play of rookies, particularly CB Darrent Williams That s a good question a guy who s not afraid to compete. He goes out there and competes, he has good feel for the game, for different coverages, but he s going to make some mistakes. I just like the way he s aggressive, he s not afraid to challenge receivers and not afraid to try and make a big play And he s got the speed to catch up and keep a guy from going the distance. On Denver P Todd Sauerbrun He did a good job kicking off and he did a good job punting. I thought overall our special teams stepped up. We had three turnovers to zero and usually when you win that turnover battle you win most football games. The start of the second half was very indicative of the tide of the game changing. QB JAKE PLUMMER: On RB Mike Anderson, who had a game-high 159 yards rushing Mike looked awesome tonight. That s a guy who s hungry to get out there and play. He and (WR) Ashley (Lelie) made some big plays tonight. On Denver s offense We did move the ball well. It was nice to get some short fields. The turnovers that the defense and special teams forced were great, and we didn t turn the ball over on offense. On his 10-of-16, 150-yard performance against Indianapolis The first series was kind of bad. I almost fell down and lost the ball. Those kind of plays are going to happen, but I think I bounce back well. QB BRADLEE VAN PELT: On his play against Indianapolis I made a couple more mistakes. I m just making a lot of rookie mistakes right now. I m getting frustrated, but I know I m getting more comfortable slowly. I just let it roll off my back. On the possibility of seeing increased playing time next week Hopefully, I do (get a lot of playing time next week). I m getting more comfortable game by game. That s the best thing for me right now to go out there and get those mistakes out of my system and learn from them. DT GERARD WARREN: On serving as the lead blocker for a Mike Anderson TD run It was a lot of fun. Any time you can contribute to something successful like scoring a touchdown, it s something I always look forward to. On going against a no-huddle offense That s what off-season conditioning is for. (Strength and Conditioning) Coach (Rich) Tuten has done a great job with the system. Conditioning is not an issue. S JOHN LYNCH: On Denver s young defensive backs Obviously, we d like to have (CB) Champ (Bailey) back there, but I know he ll be ready by the season opener. The good thing is that there are a lot of positives that can come out of this. These kids are competing tremendously. On the play of rookie CB Darrent Williams The word was, the primary reason we got him was because of his return ability. I don t want to be premature, and I m not trying to anoint him something special, but I just like the kid s make-up. I like the way he goes about his work. He s not fazed by the pressure. Corner is a tough position to play, but he seems unfazed and wants to get better every play. TE JEB PUTZIER: On his 28-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter I went in motion to the left. I kind of got lost in the offensive line, and (QB) Bradlee (Van Pelt) just lobbed it to me and I had open field in front of me. Before the play I told Bradlee, You d better not run it. I knew we were going to score a touchdown on that play.

BRONCOS HEAD COACH MIKE SHANAHAN Mike Shanahan in 2005 begins his 11th season as head coach of the Denver Broncos, and his first decade of measurement against the game s all-time coaches places him among the pro football elite. Last year, he joined the exclusive club of head coaches to post 100 wins in his first 10 seasons with one club, finishing the campaign and decade tied for fourth on this ultraimpressive list. The group that Mike Shanahan joined is listed below: COACHES WITH 100 WINS FOR ONE TEAM THROUGH THE FIRST 10 SEASONS WITH THAT TEAM (including playoffs) Wins by Season SB Years Reg Post TOTAL WINS Joe Gibbs, Washington John Madden, Raiders Don Shula, Miami Mike Shanahan, Broncos George Seifert, San Francisco Mike Ditka, Chicago Marv Levy, Buffalo Bud Grant, Minnesota Bill Cowher, Pittsburgh Marty Schottenheimer, K.C Bill Walsh, San Francisco Dennis Green, Minnesota No head coach in the NFL has won more games than Mike Shanahan s 108 victories over the last 10 seasons. Those 108 wins by Mike Shanahan include seven consecutive in the playoffs (he is the only coach to have produced seven playoff wins in two years) during the 1997 and 1998 World Championship seasons, years in which he firmly established himself among the game s sideline greats. In 10 seasons with Denver, Shanahan owns an impressive regular-season coaching record of (.631). Including a postseason record of 7-4, he has a combined record of (.632) as head coach of the Broncos. Not only is that record the best among all coaches in Denver history, but his home record is a staggering (.775) in regular-season play. The Broncos success in Shanahan s 10 seasons with the club is staggering and puts Denver at the top of several offense categories during that time. From , Denver: tied with Green Bay for the NFL s best per-game scoring average (25.3 ppg., 4,045 points); Ranked first in the NFL in rushing yards (22,483, per game; and ranked second in the NFL in total offense (58,469 yards, 365 per game). Below is the most updated look at how the success Denver s offense has enjoyed under Shanahan s leadership.!"#$"%&-.&-%/0(#-&&&&&&&&&&&&& &!&H&!&& :6;:<3;:=

Since Shanahan took over the Broncos coaching reins in 1995, Denver has scored 30 or more points at home 39 times (twice in postseason) and 20 or more points at home 72 times (four times in playoff action) in 80 regular season and four playoff games. Including road games, the Broncos have scored 30 or more points 68 times (including four times in the playoffs) and 20 or more points 128 times (including eight times in the playoffs) in the 160 regular season games and 11 postseason games under him. Denver s record in the 68 games in which it has scored 30 or more points under Shanahan is an amazing 66-2 (which includes 4-0 in playoff competition), including a 39-0 mark (which includes a 2-0 playoff record) at Mile High Stadium and INVESCO Field at Mile High. Over the last 13 years (10 in Denver and the previous three in San Francisco), Mike Shanahan s offenses have finished number one in the NFL four times, second twice, third three times and fourth once; in two of those campaigns Denver was just 17 and 83 yards short of the number one spot. During his NFL career, Shanahan has been a part of teams that have played in nine AFC or NFC Championship Games, in addition to his six Super Bowl appearances, five with Denver and the Super Bowl XXIX game with San Francisco. In his nine seasons as a college assistant, Shanahan s teams participated in eight bowl games, winning two national championships. MIKE SHANAHAN YEAR-BY-YEAR Yrs. Pos.

A FINAL LOOK AT 2004 In 2004, Denver earned its second consecutive trip to the playoffs with a 10-6 record and a second-place finish in the AFC West. But despite losing its AFC Wild Card Game, Denver found plenty of success it can build on in Offensively, Jake Plummer in his second season as the Broncos starting quarterback passed for a franchise record 4,089 yards and tied the franchise record with 27 touchdowns passes. His primary targets, Rod Smith and Ashley Lelie, each eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark in receiving, posting 1,144 and 1,084 yards respectively. On the ground, the running game again excelled as Reuben Droughns, aided by a stellar offensive line, led the team with 1,240 yards rushing and six touchdowns. On the other side of the ball, the team welcomed a number offseason additions who made an immediate impact. Cornerback Champ Bailey and safety John Lynch garnered Pro Bowl selections for the NFL s fourth-ranked defense while rookie linebacker D.J. Williams led the team with 114 tackles (82 solo). In addition, defensive end Reggie Hayward had a break-out year, posting career highs in sacks (10.5) and tackles (60, 45 solo). Denver earned its sixth trip to the postseason under Mike Shanahan, who completed a full decade as the franchise s head coach. In the process, Shanahan joined an elite group of coaches who have posted 100 wins in their first 10 seasons with one club GAME NOTES BRONCOS CAN RUN THE BALL ANY TIME OF YEAR The regular season and playoffs aren t the only places that Denver s run game thrives. As the team proved with a 266-yard, two-touchdown rushing output in a preseason win against San Francisco on Aug. 20 and a 203-yard, two-touchdown game vs. Indianapolis on Aug. 27, Denver can run the football any time of the year. Those respective rushing totals rank as the highest and fourth-highest team rushing outputs in the preseason since Mike Shanahan took Denver s head coaching reigns in MOST DENVER RUSHING YARDS IN A PRESEASON GAME SINCE 1995 Date Opponent Att.
