DENVER (AP) -Josh McDaniels had the Midas touch at the start of the season, his every move paying off as the Denver Broncos shocked the NFL with a 6-0 start. Then, the first-year head coach started fiddling with his roster during the bye week. So much for the age-old axiom - if it's not broke ... The Broncos (6-2) have suddenly hit the skids since coming off a break, dropping their second straight with a 28-10 loss to Pittsburgh on Monday. Denver's rushing attack was nonexistent against the Steelers, |

Following an October 25 bye, the Ravens looked sluggish at the start of their meeting two weeks ago with the Denver Broncos, scoring six first-half points. Luckily, the defense held Denver off the board and Baltimore found its offense in the second half before cruising to a 30-7 win. This past Sunday versus the Bengals, the Ravens were not as lucky.

Winners of five in a row, the Steelers are looking again like a team no one would willingly play in January. Or February. The Denver Broncos might pass along this message to the Cincinnati Bengals: The Steelers aren't much fun in November, either. The Steelers' defense-driven 28-10 victory in Denver on Monday night put them in position to take over sole possession of the AFC North lead |

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) -The Denver Broncos have shored up their secondary with another veteran, signing cornerback Ty Law.

To make room, the Broncos waived defensive back Jack Williams. Law's signing also likely means reduced playing time in the nickel and dime packages for rookie Alphonso Smith. Law, a 15-year veteran, played seven g |
