The last time the Broncos were so desperate to get in the Super Bowl conversation they traded for Russell Wilson. And how did that turn out? Waddle, Waddle. If it looks like desperation, swims like a reach for a No. 1 receiver and quacks like extravagance, then I’ve got to ask: After sitting on the…

Kickin’ It with Kiz: Here’s the no-brainer first-round pick for the Broncos in NFL draft
The Broncos signed no big name in free agency? This is garbage. General manager George Paton not getting an extension means he decided not to give a flip? And is coach Sean Payton really so full of himself that he figured nothing about this team needed to improve or change? – L.F., Denver Kiz: OK,…

Kickin’ It with Kiz: Was Buffs legend Christian Fauria wrong to pancake Coach Prime with criticism?

Kickin’ It with Kiz: Would Broncos be in Super Bowl today if John Elway got QB he liked in 2018 NFL draft?
I hate the Seahawks. I abhor the Patriots. I’ve never heard of Bad Bunny and already can’t stand his “music.” Can’t stand NBC analyst Cris Collinsworth. But I probably watch the Super Bowl anyway. – J-Dawg, Boulder Kiz: Two years ago, when Sam Darnold was trying to rehabilitate his NFL career as a seldom-used reserve…
