ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) -Darren McFadden has been haunted by his performance in last week's loss to the Denver Broncos, reliving every detail of his three fumbles that helped contribute to Oakland's 23-3 loss. McFadden says he hasn't been able to shake those miscues, including one turnover that spoiled Oakland's best shot at a touchdown in the game. Perhaps just as concerning for Oakland has been McFadden's inability to break off the long runs the Raiders expected when they drafted him fourth overall out |

(AP) -His coach, offensive coordinator and even some teammates shy away from the term ``game manager'' when talking about Denver Broncos quarterback Kyle Orton, figuring it has a negative tenor. Not Orton. He embraces the term and doesn't see it as an insult at all. Orton's style is a far cry from his predecessor, Pro Bowl passer Jay Cutler, who famously bragged that his arm was stronger than Hall of Famer John Elway's and often seemed intent on proving just that. Orton isn't nearl |

| (MySportsbook) - Some optimistic fan on the Denver Broncos' official site posted that after watching the first three games of the season, his unbeaten team can play with "the big dogs." It's funny how a lucky catch and back-to- back blowouts of also-rans can bring out such enthusiasm. A 3-0 start to an NFL season certainly helps those faithful followers, and Denver is witnessing its fair share of hype after Sunday's 23-3 victory over the AFC West-rival Oakland Raiders.
