In their final regular-season tuneup before the playoffs, the DenverBroncos won their fourth consecutive game with a 23-7 win againstthe San Diego Chargers on Saturday in front of 65,513 fans atQualcomm Stadium.

The victory improved Denver’s final regular-season record to 13-3, tying for the second-highest win total in franchise history.
Safety John Lynch, playing in his hometown of San Diego, forcedtwo fumbles on two sacks that directly led to nine Broncos points.Denver’s defense totaled a season-high six sacks, one safety, oneinterception and three forced fumbles on the day.
In his first career start, running back Tatum Bell scored all three ofDenver’s touchdowns on runs of six, one and 19 yards to set a sin-gle-game career best for rushing touchdowns. Bell, who entered the
game only 131 yards short of joining Mike Anderson as a 1,000-yard rusher for the year, finished with 52 yards against the NFL’sNo. 1 run defense.
Quarterback Jake Plummer started for Denver, completing 8-of-14passes (57.1%) for 91 yards. Plummer was replaced by BradleeVan Pelt to begin the second half, and in the first significant gameaction of his career, the second-year quarterback rushed for 41yards on 10 carries and added two completions for seven yards.
After a scoreless first quarter, Bell gave Denver a 7-0 lead with a6-yard touchdown run at 11:48 of the second quarter. Denver wouldscore again later in the quarter when Chargers quarterback DrewBrees was sacked by Lynch and lost a fumble at his 1-yard line with3:37 left in the first half, setting up a Bell touchdown run one playlater.
Philip Rivers took over as the Chargers’ quarterback on the nextseries in place of Brees, who was injured on the Lynch sack. Riversled the team on a 69-yard scoring drive that culminated in a 6-yardtouchdown run by running back LaDainian Tomlinson, trimmingDenver’s lead to 14-7 at halftime.
On the Chargers’ first offensive series of the third quarter, Lynchsacked Rivers in the end zone and forced a fumble. It was recoveredin the end zone by San Diego tackle Shane Olivea, who waspounced on by defensive tackle Demetrin Veal for a safety and a 16-7 Broncos lead at 5:30 of the third quarter.
Safety Curome Cox intercepted the first pass of his career late inthe fourth quarter. His 48-yard return put Denver at the San Diego19-yard line, setting up its final score on a 19-yard Bell run on thenext play.

HEAD COACH MIKE SHANAHAN TRANSCRIPTMONDAY, NOV. 13, 2006, PRESS CONFERENCE
On QB Jake Plummer’s three interceptions against Oakland“Well sometimes it looks that way. Any time that you throw an inter-
ception, not everybody knows what is involved. Sometimes it is pro-tection, sometimes it is routes and sometimes it is a combination ofall the things that go into it. The thing we have to get better as anoffense is we have to control that football. We can’t turn it over, espe-cially on the road. We did that and we still found a way to win. Wemade some plays in the fourth quarter when we had to and I wasproud of our football team when we had to dig down and make someplays we were able to make some plays.”
On if he thinks that winning ugly is a sign of a great football team“I tell you one thing, we have had a lot of stats a lot of the times that
we have lost and had a lot of points and a lot of yardage but there isnothing like winning. You have got to find a way to win. We didn’t playvery well in offense or special teams and we still found a way to getit done and that is sign of some character and a good football team.”
On if he has an explanation for why most of QB Jake Plummer’sinterceptions have occurred on the road
“Yeah, he just throws a lot of interceptions on the road. No, I am notsure why. I just hope that he continues that and doesn’t do it athome.”
On if he has an update on the status of LB Ian Gold, DE PatrickChukwurah and DE Ebenezer Ekuban
“I really do not know yet. We will have to take a look and see whatthey can do on Wednesday and see if they made any strides. Rightnow they are getting treatment like they always do, but we just haveto wait and see.”
On if he feels that Sunday’s game in Oakland was a psycholog-ical letdown in any way
“I really don’t think so. I think that our backups are guys that wereasked to start, and they played extremely well. Defensively, weplayed exceptionally well in the second half. I thought that we madesome plays when we had to make them and any time you take alook at this league, you know you are not going to play perfect everyweek. You are going to have some games that you play well andsome games that you play poorly but you have to find a way to winthose games. Was this an ugly one? Sure, I love ugly ones as longas you win. As we just talked about a second ago, I am very proudof our football team and the way we fought in the fourth quarter. Weovercame a lot of adversity and got it done.”
On why he de-activated rookie TE Tony Scheffler for Sunday’sgame against Oakland
“Well we have talked about this before. Most people brought it upwith the quarterback position but it is all positions. We are going toevaluate guys on a day-by-day basis. How they do in practice, howthey do in games and sometimes practice ways as heavy as gameday. Part of the decisions that we make during the season are basedon all of those ingredients.”
On if he feels that TE Scheffler is progressing“Yes. I have told you what I have thought of Scheffler. He probably
has Pro Bowl ability. He is a rookie so there is a learning curve there.Sometimes you can dress four tight ends, and other times we candress three tight-ends depending on what the game plan is. But wehad four tight ends and Tony didn’t dress. We made a decision thisweek that with the way Nate (Jackson) practiced that we would givehim the opportunity to show us what he could do based on practiceand what he has done and he really stepped up and played well.”
On if his frustration on offense has led to his roster changes thispast week
“No, I am not frustrated with the offense. I think it is based onwhat we have talked about before. We have got some guys that arevery close at certain positions. I think with the running back posi-tion I am disappointed with myself for playing Tatum (Bell) so muchas I did. Even though he says he’s healthy, I don’t think he is ashealthy as he says he is. I saw that in a game. So as a coach youhave to go on your gut and you can’t just go on who’s the starter,who’s been the starter. You have to go based on how a guy prac-tices and for what you think is best for the football team. I thoughtthat bringing Damien Nash up, I wanted to see what he could dobecause he has looked good in practice. He did play in the presea-son game and he looked very good, and I thought we needed a guythat was healthy, a guy that was kind of biting at the bit a little bit toget his opportunity and kind of see what he could do during the sec-ond half of the season. So we will do things like that throughout theseason and sometimes when you have competition at certain posi-tions you do not know where it is going to occur but chances are itwill occur.”

DENVER vs. san diego SUNDAY, nov. 19, 200615— —
On if he was sending a message to the team how anyone can bereplaced
“I think our guys know that. They see a right tackle that goes tosecond tackle and then comes up based on how he practices andmaybe a guy doesn’t play as well as we think he is capable of play-ing in a certain game. Not that we don’t believe in that player, butwe think that competition is the best thing for a guy to get the bestout of people. You have got to compete in practice and compete ongame day if you want a chance to get better.”
On if he is dissatisfied at where the Broncos stand with the run-ning back position going into their 10th game of the season
“When you are dissatisfied with the group that means you are notvery productive with the group. We are one of the top five rushingfootball teams in the National Football League, so we are very goodwith our rushing offense. Does that mean that we can’t get better?No. We have got some competition there and that may be one of thereasons that we are in the top five.”
On if he would prefer to be settled on one running back thensharing the carries with a few
“Sure, you would love to have one guy but that doesn’t mean thatthat is the best thing for your football team. If you do what the bestthing for your football team is then I think that we have got a num-ber of running backs who are very capable and very talented andthat may change week by week. A lot of that has to do with injury,a lot of that has to do with what a guy does in practice based on aguy being out or sore for two or three weeks. There are so manyfactors that go in to it; it is just not who do we feel good about thatweek but who is healthy and who practices well.”
On RB Damien Nash’s fumble during Sunday’s game “Those things happen I was just very happy that he was able to
recover it. It did help his cause.”
On what he likes about RB Nash“Well I think the only time that you saw him live was the
Tennessee game (preseason) and I think he played quite well. Hehad a number of good runs, some elusiveness, some speed, andsome power. He didn’t get a lot of action (against Oakland), butthose four carries that he had were pretty impressive.”
On what he can do with RB Tatum Bell to get him healthy“I really don’t know. We are just going to have to wait and see.
Sometimes it is rest, sometimes its treatment, sometimes a combi-nation of both. We will evaluate it as time goes on.”
On if he thinks that rookie RB Mike Bell took a step backward inthe Pittsburgh game
“I have got a lot of confidence in Mike Bell, but Mike Bell had acouple runs that he might have been able to get more yardage on inthe Pittsburgh game but I say that about every running back everygame. So I have a lot of confidence in Mike, he is a young playerand he will play a lot for us before the season is over.”
On if RB Tatum Bell is still the starter at tailback“Yes.”
On RB Mike Bell and TE Tony Scheffler progressing during theirrookie year
“Yeah rookies…It takes some time to feel comfortable with thesystem and kind of feel comfortable with yourself. It is a long sea-son, but like I said I have confidence it both guys and both guys weare counting making some plays before the season is over with andhopefully it is this weekend.”
On how T Adam Meadows played“He played pretty good. We had a couple of silent counts where
he jumped offsides a couple of times. It’s something you don’t real-ly get a chance to work on unless it’s a situation like we had.Besides that, he played pretty good.”
On whether WR Javon Walker was being double-teamed“Sometimes it was double teams, sometimes it was pressure to
the quarterback – a combination of things. We’re going to try to getthe ball to our best players. I think you guys have been around melong enough to know that. We’re going to try to do the things thatgive us the best chance to win. Obviously, the more times we canget the ball in his hands, the better off we are.”
On how to stop Chargers RB LaDainian Tomlinson“If I did have the answer for that, I wouldn’t share it with you. He’s
a great running back, arguably the best back in the league. It’s agreat challenge for our football team to go against a guy that is thatgood consistently. Any time a team scores 42 points in a half, that’skind of unheard of, pretty impressive.”
On whether he was disappointed in the offense’s performanceat Oakland
“Yeah, very disappointed. Any time you move the ball like we didand commit as many turnovers as we did, very seldom do you winon the road. So yeah, I was disappointed in a lot of different areas.But, like I said, when we had to make the plays and everything wason the line, we seemed to step up and make those plays. To winconsistently and to play at the level that we know it’s going to taketo be one of the top teams, we’ve got to play much better than wedid.”
On FB Kyle Johnson’s fourth-down touchdown catch“It was a lot of people doing the right thing. It was a great sell with
one of our base runs. Kyle not only made the catch, Jake made agreat throw. Everybody executed very well. It was a full-out blitz.You’re hoping that these guys are going to make those plays, but itdidn’t surprise me.”
On what’s causing problems in the running game“A little bit of everything. Any time one phase is not working like
it normally does – pass offense or rushing offense – it’s a combina-tion of a lot of things.”

On what he’s noticed that tells him Tatum Bell isn’t fully recov-ered
“As a running back, you can see what a guy can do and what a guydoes consistently over a couple years’ time. When a guy can’t dothat, you know he’s hurting a little bit more than he’s letting on.”
On whether he’s considered giving RB Cecil Sapp carries atOakland
“Cecil’s our third back going into any game. He’s a fullback, but hecan play tailback. You go into a game like Tatum (did Sunday), hecould be hurt, could go down on the first or second play. Whoeveryour second back is, he’s in there. Cecil is a guy you could put inthere very quickly and be very productive because he’s got somegreat running skills.”
On whether Johnson’s health factors into the use of Sapp“No, Kyle’s fine. A week ago, that was true. When we played at
Pittsburgh, one of the reasons we went with three backs wasbecause Kyle could not push off to block (Joey) Porter and some ofthose linebackers over there. It’s a total mismatch. A lot of times,it’s a total mismatch if the guy’s healthy with that type of size andspeed. But Kyle felt very good coming into this game, and when hedid play (he) played well.”
On facing questions about the offense while winning“I don’t think we’ve ever won – at least since I’ve been here – with
the offense not being real productive. It’s always been offense, andthe defense there’s always been questions about. So it’s a little bitdifferent. We beat Pittsburgh and gave up 500 yards, and every-body’s talking about how good the offense is, which is great. Butthat doesn’t make you feel good as a coach when you give up 500yards, even though we had six turnovers. Sometimes you’re goingto play some great games, and sometimes you’re going to playsome poor games. The bottom line is you’ve got to find a way towin. ‘Winning ugly’ is a phrase that’s been used quite often. If youcan find a way to do that, it’s still special.”
On whether the offense is the most up and down he’s had here“I think you go back and look at the stats. We aren’t always as pro-
ductive as we’d like to be, but this is not the end of the season. Wewant to play our best football in the second half. We’ve still got abunch of games to go, and we’ve got a lot of talent. We’ve got tohave some guys that’ll pick up their game if we’re going to get towhere we need to get, and we’ll go through and do it.”
On whether execution or talent is the biggest issue“Execution, guys bringing up their game. Any time you lose a
tackle, you’ve got a guy like Erik Pears. He’s got to play better. He’scapable of playing. The rest of our guys have got to pick their gameup. You’ve got some injuries here and there. You’ve got to pick upyour game.”
On whether he is concerned with two new tackles playing“We’ve got one new tackle in there, really. The other one, we made
by choice. I’m not saying I’m giving up on George Foster becauseGeorge Foster is one of the most talented players I’ve been around.We’ve just got to get him playing a little bit higher level. If he doesthat, then he’ll be right in the mix again. We’ll evaluate that on a day-to-day basis based on practice.”
On Foster being perplexed about not starting“I sit down with everybody before I make any of these decisions.
We sit down, and we have a lengthy conversation. Usually, after thatconversation people feel at least that they know where I’m comingfrom. They may not agree with it, but they know where I’m comingfrom and they know what I expect.”
On whether the decision to hold out Foster and RB Mike Bellwas based on practice or games
“I’m not going into detail. I’m just telling you that we’re going toplay the best players. It’s based on practice. It’s based on game day.It’s something that stays in the confines, obviously, of our meetingrooms. When we do make a decision on who’s going to start andwho’s second team, it’s based on practice, it’s based on game dayand (it’s based on) what we think is in the best interest of the team.”
On new injuries“Stephen Alexander has a sore wrist. He came out a few plays dur-
ing the game. Other than that, some minor bumps and bruises. Idon’t think any of them will keep anybody out.”
On whether he talked to Al Davis in Oakland“No, I did not. I was really disappointed he didn’t stop by and say
hello to me before the game started, but maybe next time.”
On whether the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Oaklandwas merited
“No question. It’s not even close. The guy’s out of bounds and ranat least 10 yards down the sideline. It was a blatant penalty. It waslike somebody tackling somebody rushing the passer. It’s part ofthe game.”
On whether he was surprised to see that penalty called“No, it happens all the time. You can’t do it. The reason why you
don’t see it is because guys don’t do it. When they do it, they get apenalty.”
On facing the Chargers“It’s a great game. San Diego’s playing exceptionally well on
offense, defense and special teams. They’re playing as well as any-body in the National Football League, so it’s a great challenge forour team. Take a look where they’re ranked offensively, defensivelyand special teams. You can’t get much higher than that, collective-ly. They’re playing exceptionally well.”

On whether he had sensed that San Diego would be this good“Obviously, anybody who had any questions about the quarter-
back position, they don’t have them anymore. He’s playing as goodas you can play.”
On how San Diego leads the league in scoring given MartySchottenheimer’s reputation as a conservative coach
“Good question. Good question. I never thought he was conser-vative. He just wins games.”

Dumervil’s five sacks in two consecutive games (3 at Cle.10/122, 2 vs. Oak. 10/15) marked the most sacks in a two-gameperiod by a rookie since the Bengals’ Justin Smith had five intwo games as a rookie in 2001. He ranks second in sacks among NFLrookies this year (Mark Anderson, Chi., 7.5).
Despite playing only five games this year, Dumervil’s six sacks tiefor the fifth-highest total by a Denver rookie.

30— —DENVER vs. san diego SUNDAY, nov. 19, 2006
Mike Shanahan in 2006 begins his 12th season as head coachof the Denver Broncos, and his first decade of measurement
against the game's all-time coaches places him among the pro foot-ball elite.
In the 86-year history of professional football, there are just fourcoaches who have spent at least 10 seasons with one team and inthat period have had more world championship seasons than los-ing campaigns.
That list includes only Paul Brown with Cleveland (17 seasons,three championships, one losing season, Hall of Fame member),Joe Gibbs with Washington (14 seasons, three championships, twolosing seasons, Hall of Fame member), John Madden with Oakland(10 seasons, one championship, no losing seasons, Hall of Famemember), and Mike Shanahan with the Broncos (11 seasons, twochampionships, one losing season).
Under Shanahan's superb guidance, the Broncos have had stag-gering team accomplishments, including: Posting the most wins inpro football history in a two-year period, seasons in which the clubwon back-to-back Super Bowls (33 in 1997-98; New England hassince won 34 in 2003-04); Posting the most wins in pro footballhistory in a three-year period (46 in 1998); Winning 18 consecutivegames over 1997-98 to tie the all-time NFL record at that time forconsecutive wins; And going undefeated for three consecutive reg-
ular seasons (1996-98) at home, just the second team ever to beundefeated and untied at home in three consecutive years.
During his first 11 seasons as the Broncos’ head coach (1995-2005), the Broncos led the NFL in scoring (25.2 ppg., 4,440 points),rushing yards (25,022, 142.2 per game) and total offense (64,235yards, 365.0 per game).
In 2004, he joined the exclusive club of head coaches to post 100wins in his first 10 seasons with one club, finishing the campaignand decade tied for fourth on this ultra-impressive list of 12 coach-es, six of whom are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
He also has brought great stability to the Denver franchise withhis 12 years with the club ranking as the third-longest tenure by anactive coach with his current team (trailing only Bill Cowher ofPittsburgh and Jeff Fisher of Tennessee).
No head coach in the NFL won more games than MikeShanahan's 122 victories from 1995-2005, and his Broncos comeinto 2006 determined to return to Super Bowl contention—both ofthose qualities are directly attributable to leadership by arguably thefinest head coach and most fertile football mind in the game today.
Those 122 wins by Shanahan included seven consecutive in theplayoffs (he is the only coach to have produced seven playoff winsin two years) during the 1997 and 1998 Super Bowl seasons, yearsin which he established himself among the game's sideline greats.His postseason winning percentage is .615 on an 8-5 record.
Shanahan elevated his career and the Broncos to new levels in1997 and 1998 as the intense and personable Denver Broncos headcoach made his mark on Super Bowl history, coming into the 2006campaign as one of only 12 all-time National Football League headcoaches with two Super Bowl victories.
Over the last 14 years (11 in Denver and the previous three in SanFrancisco), Mike Shanahan's offenses have finished number one inthe NFL four times, second twice, third three times and fourth once;in two of those campaigns Denver was just 17 and 83 yards shortof the number one spot.
During his NFL career, Shanahan has been a part of teams thathave played in 10 AFC or NFC Championship Games, in addition tohis six Super Bowl appearances, five with Denver and the SuperBowl IX game with San Francisco. In his nine seasons coaching atthe collegiate level, Shanahan's teams participated in eight bowlgames, winning two national championships.

FORMER BROWNS LINEMEN MAKE KEY IMPACT IN DENVER
The Broncos’ entire starting defensive line is made up of playerswho were on the Cleveland Browns’ roster at some point in the lasttwo years, and the team’s current line features a total of six playerswho joined the club from Cleveland during that time.
Starting defensive ends Kenard Lang and Ebenezer Ekuban alongwith starting defensive tackles Michael Myers and Gerard Warrenhave helped Denver field a defense that has achieved numerous dis-tinctions in 2006, including:
* - Becoming the first defense since 1934 to allow one touch-down or fewer through the first five games of a season.* - Becoming one of two teams since 1940 to allow only onetouchdown through the first four games of the year.* - Becoming the first unit since 1942 to not allow a touchdownfor the first 11 quarters of a season.* - Allowing only two touchdowns in their opponents’ first 68possessions.
In 2005, Denver’s line included three primary starters whom theclub acquired from Cleveland during the offseason in defensive endCourtney Brown (14 GP/13 GS) and defensive tackles MichaelMyers (16/15) and Gerard Warren (16/16). Defensive end EbenezerEkuban (16/4) also was a key contributor on the 2005 Broncos
defense that ranked second in the NFL against the run (85.2 ypg.)and helped the club advance to the AFC Championship Game.

O-LINE PROVIDING PASS PROTECTIONThe Broncos' offensive line, renowned for its ability to clear the
way for a dominant rushing attack, also has proven to be equallyadept in pass protection during the last four seasons. Denver, whichset a franchise record in 2004 by allowing only 15 sacks, has givenup the third-fewest sacks (76 for 476 yds.) in the NFL since 2003.

HOLD IT RIGHT THEREWhen John Elway was ruling the roost in Denver, comebacks were
often times the only thing people talked about. But since HeadCoach Mike Shanahan took over the reigns in 1995, the Broncoshave learned to not allow the opponents to come back on them. InShanahan's tenure, the Broncos are 101-14 (.878) in games inwhich they led after three quarters, including 12-1 in 2005 and 4-1in 2006.

quickly. In the 222-game run, the Broncos have scored on theirfirst possession 89 times, including one time they scored on theirfirst touch (a punt return). Denver has scored in the first quarter148 times during the streak, and has had it extended by halftime212 times.

In addition to contributing six tackles (4 solo), he provided a pivotal play when he intercepted QB Andrew Walter deep in Broncos territory on Sunday Night Football vs. Oak. (10/15). Late in the second quarter, he intercepted Walter’s pass intended for WR Randy Moss at Denver’s 1-yard line.

His first interception was in the second quarter as he picked off QB Ben Roethlisberger’s pass intended for WR Cedrick Wilson at the 3-yard line and returned it five yards. His second interception was also at the 3-yard line as he stepped in front of a pass intended for WR Hines Ward in the third quarter. He led the team’s secondary with nine solo tackles and a pass defensed at Oak. (11/12). He primarily limited Raiders WR Randy Moss to an eight-yard catch.

47 • John Lynch • S • 6-2 • 220 • 14 • Stanford Regular Season Games Played/Games Started: 2006: 9/9; Career: 204/172 2006 Regular Season: Through nine starts, he has 46 tackles (32 solo), three passes defensed, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. He recorded five tackles (4 solo) in the season opener at Stl. (9/10). Tied (Bailey) for the lead among the team’s defensive backs with nine tackles (6 solo) and a fumble recovery in the home opener vs. K.C. (9/17). His fumble recovery thwarted the Chiefs first possession at Denver’s 6-yard line. Through the first two games of the season, the team hasn’t allowed a touchdown for the first time since 1978 and just the second time in team history. The team hasn’t allowed a touchdown in consecutive games for the fifth time in team history. He added three tackles and a pass defensed in helping to cap the Patriots at 50 rushing yards at N.E. (9/24). The team allowed one touchdown against the Patriots – the first allowed this season – snapping at 175:57 the streak of holding opponents without a touchdown. The streak, spanning the first 11 quarters of the season ties for the longest streak (Chicago Cardinals, 1942) since 1940 and marks the longest such streak in team history. He led the team’s defensive backs with seven tackles (4 solo) on Monday Night Football vs. Bal. (10/9). He helped the Broncos become just the second team since 1940 (2000 Miami Dolphins) to limit its opponents to just one touchdown through the first four games. In his 200th pro game, he recorded five solo tackles and two passes defensed on Sunday Night Football vs. Oak. (10/15). He broke up a pass into the end zone intended for Raiders WR Randy Moss in the first quarter which forced a failed field goal attempt. He helped the team join the 1934 Detroit Lions as the only teams to allow only one touchdown through their first five games. He made three tackles (1 solo) at Cle. (10/22). He made six tackles (3 solo) and drew an offensive pass interference call vs. Ind. (10/29). He made four tackles (3 solo) and forced a fumble at Pit. (11/5). Late in the fourth quarter, he jarred the ball from WR Hines Ward, allowing Cox to recover it in Denver’s end zone. The collision forced him from the game. In all, the team recorded a plus-six turnover ratio against the Steelers, which is the third-highest figure team annals in a game since the merger. The six takeaways is the seventh most in team history since the merger. He made four tackles (3 solo) in helping to limit the Raiders to just 46 rushing yards at Oak. (11/12).
