Peyton Manning and Champ Bailey are in the twilight of their Hall of Fame careers. Needless to say, there's a sense of urgency for the Denver Broncos to do more, Chris Wesseling says.

Peyton Manning didn't look like his old self in the first quarter Monday night, but the Denver Broncos quarterback's struggles were a product of tricky defensive looks by the Atlanta Falcons.

The Dallas Cowboys got rid of veteran linebackers Bradie James and Keith Brooking over the offseason, giving a larger role to Bruce Carter. So far, so good, Jerry Jones says.

The Denver Broncos signed veterans Jim Leonhard and Keith Brooking a few weeks ago with the idea of putting them on their 53-man roster. It might not work out that way.

Entering the season with high expectations, the Cowboys' defense was pedestrian at best in 2011. Coordinator Rob Ryan points the finger at himself, but was he to blame? Ian Rapoport examines.

The Cowboys have never lacked for confidence. That trademark swagger was evident in the team's approach to the draft, and reveals how good Dallas expects to be in 2012, Ian Rapoport writes.
