Craig Morton.
Man, he tamed the Raiders in ‘77.
Played in the Super Bowl on a busted up knee.
He was the front end of the M&M Connection — Morton to Moses.
May he rest in peace.
We are saddened to learn of the passing of #BroncosROF quarterback Craig Morton, who died on Saturday at the age of 83.
Morton quarterbacked the Broncos from 1977-82 and led the team to its first playoff appearance and Super Bowl berth (XII vs. Dallas) in the 1977 season.

Former NFL standout and current Cherry Creek High School coach Dave Logan will be trying to win their sixth Colorado state championship in the past seven years Saturday against Ralston Valley HS. He already has won six other Colorado state championships, so this would be his 13th. Logan — who also is the Broncos radio play-by-play announcer — might just be the most accomplished NFL player turned high-school football coach in history, and Saturday, in a battle of 13-0 teams, he will look to add to that legacy.
Hot take: I’m a big fan of the 6 7 trend. It allows every kid to be a part of the “in group” and that’s a very rare phenomenon. I actually think it’s perfect that it has no meaning so it’s not offensive to anyone. A meaningless joke that makes kids happy. What’s wrong with that?
last year, the Denver Broncos had the NFL's #1 ranked blocking offensive line:
#1 in run block win rate (ESPN)
#1 in pass block win rate (ESPN)
on non-Javonte Williams runs, they ranked:
#1 in short yardage conversion rate
#3 in 3+ yards before contact rate
#5 in yards before contact per rush
#5 lowest stuff rate
