Here comes Bronco Training Camp at Dove Valley

Training camp begins in just a few days. Rookies camp starts on July 26th, but as I understand it, we cannot attend that camp. On August 1st, when the full team starts official camp, then the fans can come on over and take it all in. The full camp is open to the public from August 1st - 18th, 2010. Come on down!

Unless you are a true football fanatic, training camp is likely to disappoint. Nothing but blood, sweat and tears (not too many tears except when dust gets in the eye). It is a tough training time and players are put through the paces with drills, exercises, runs and practice. It is a hard hitting affair not for the faint of heart.

For most fanatics who attend, there is a favorite subject person or team to watch. Many love to watch the receivers, but others love the offensive drills. Usually there are 2 sessions daily, so if the morning camp didn't suit you, there is always the afternoon, when it is hotter. Whew!

Makes me tired just thinking about watching it. But it is a lot of fun when you go with other friends who love the team. We are all skeptical about McDaniels this year, and just about everyone will be paying attention to the QBs and how they execute. For me, that is the most interesting part.

Tim Tebow now has his own shoe line, the NFL's most popular jersey and a spot on some dumb bachelor show. All this for a guy who has not yet achieved anything in the pros. Most of us remember other hot young players who have come to camp and could not get the gist of it all. I know Tim is an awesome guy, but is he an awesome QB?

Only time will tell. I know Orton will execute in camp like a machine. He has a lot to prove, and his job to hang onto. He has all the advantage at this point. He was in camp with McDaniels last year, while Quinn and Tebow are on the lower end of the curve.

I am also going to be paying a lot of attention to our new defensive line and how it will function and how the guys will be working together. They are the key to success this year. The big D must hold the opposing teams to under 100 yards in offense to win. That is a must!

A lot of fun, a lot of analysis and tons of laughs. Training camp is way more fun for the fans than for the players.
