DENVER -- Von Miller is back to lead Denvers devastating defense. Still undetermined is who will direct the Broncos revamped offense.Journeyman Mark Sanchez, rkie Paxton Lynch and the unheralded Trevor Siemian are in the mix at quarterback for the Broncos, who lost Brock Osweiler to free agency 48 hours after Peyton Mannings misty-eyed retirement.No team has successfully defended its Super Bowl title since the 2004 New England Patriots. The Broncos are the first team since the 2001 Baltimore Ravens to try to go back to back after losing its top two QBs.After losing the bidding duel with Houston for Osweiler, GM John Elway acquired Sanchez from the Eagles and outmaneuvered Jerry Jones to select Lynch out of Memphis in the first round of the draft.Yet, it was Siemian, the 2015 seventh-rounder with just one snap on his resume, who lked the sharpest in Denvers drama-filled offseason, putting him in prime position to upset Sanchez for the starting job.I think theyre lking each other right in the eye throughout the whole course of the offseason as far who is ahead and who is one or two, coach Gary Kubiak said.I think those two guys are right there with each other. I think its a very competitive situation. Theyre obviously ahead of our young guy just from a mental standpoint right now.Ideally, Lynch would sit a season as he adjusts to the NFL after running the spread offense in college.Both Sanchez and Siemian tk the briefest of summer vacations before returning to Denver to continue their quest to take over an offense that features just four returning starters.The defense lost Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan to free agency, but returns most members of the one of the best defenses in NFL history. His defense is so devastating that Kubiak wont have to wait for the preseason games to see which of his quarterbacks is his guy.Kubiak said hell ratchet up the pressure -- easier with Miller back in uniform -- and run plenty of no-huddle over the first couple of weeks of training camp to see wholl win the job.Other things to pay attention to as the Broncos defend their title:MILLERS MILLIONS: Miller predicted peaceful contract negotiations 12 hours after spearheading Denvers 24-10 win over Carolina in the Super Bowl. Although things got testy at times and Elway refused to let Millers camp seek a trade, the sides got a deal done that they believe is a win-win. Miller gets $70 million guaranteed and Elway gets several more seasons out of the man hes called the best player on the planet. After spending more time on the dance flr than the ftball field over the past six months, the Broncos need Miller to be the same demolition man he was in the playoffs.MILLERS MINIONS: Two big question marks still face Denvers defense: DeMarcus Wares balky back and Aqib Talibs wounded right leg. Ware didnt participate in a single snap in the offseason as his bad back that limited him to 11 games last season acted up again. Talib said he feels fine and is full-go after recovering from a gunshot wound to his right thigh and calf last month in a shting in Dallas. Even if he returns to his superstar level, Talib, whos had firearm incidents in the past, could face legal consequences and punishment from the NFL.NEW O-LINE: The Broncos won it all behind a patchwork offensive line that was dissembled not long after the victory parade attended by more than a million fans. Elway jettisoned right guard Louis Vasquez and let left tackle Ryan Harris and left guard Evan Mathis sign elsewhere. With Max Garcia moving to left guard and Michael Schofield to swing tackle behind free agent acquisitions Russell Okung and Donald Stephenson, only center Matt Paradis returns at his 2015 position.NEW OFFENSE: The Broncos ditched their hybrid offense when Manning retired. Expect more two tight end sets and heavy doses of hand offs to C.J. Anderson and rkie Devontae Bker, who will be running behind fullbacks Andy Janovich and Juwan Thompson. At tight end, the Broncos said farewell to Vernon Davis and Owen Daniels and brought in Garrett Graham and Henry Krieger Coble. Jeff Heuerman, who missed his rkie season with a knee injury, returns alongside veteran Virgil Green.SANDERS NEXT: Elway said he had a trio of priorities this summer: re-signing linebackers Miller and Brandon Marshall along with receiver Emmanuel Sanders. Hes 2 for 3 with Miller and Marshall (four years, $32 million) done. Sanders is entering the final season of his three-year, $15 million deal.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Ftball Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton Air Max 97 Ireland Sale .S. hockey team after paying his dues as an NHL general manager for more than three decades and giving up a lot of his free time to help USA Hockey.

Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111.India reduced England to 103-5 in response to their first-innings 455 to take control of the second Test on day two in Visakhapatnam. Joe Rt (53) hit fifty, but holed out long-off to a Ravichandran Ashwin delivery; a superfluous shot and a wicket symptomatic of an erratic final session from the visitors where they lost four wickets for 29 runs in a 15-over spell. Alastair Cks off-stump is broken in two by a jubilant Mohammad Shami on day two in Visakhapatnam After Alastair Ck was dismissed before tea - his stumps broken by Mohammed Shami - Hasseb Hameed (13) was needlessly run-out, Ben Ducketts flaws against off-spin were again exposed, and Moeen Ali fell lbw on review.England had earlier done well to dismiss their hosts for 455, with Virat Kohli (167) adding only 16 runs to his overnight score.Moeen impressed with three wickets, including that of Kohli - Ben Stokes taking the catch at slip after putting down Ashwin on 17, a ball earlier.Ashwin (5 kicked on through to an eighth Test fifty, and then tk 2-20 with the ball as England struggled through to stumps on a pitch that is now starting to crack up.India, resuming the day on 317-4, breezed through the first hours play unscathed, with England unable to find the same swing with the second new ball that was there the previous evening.Eventually, England turned to spin, and Moeen (3-9 made immediate inroads, with the wicket of Kohli in his second over, and the strikes of Wriddhiman Saha (3) and Ravindra Jadeja (0) lbw in his fourth, although Jadeja would have survived had he opted to review. Ben Stokes drops Ravichandran Ashwin on 17, who went on tto score fifty for India Ashwin and Jayant Yadav (35), on debut, rallied the innings with their 64-run stand for the eighth wicket either side of lunch, though sn after Ashwin reached his half-century, Stokes (1-73) atoned for his earlier error at slip and picked him up caught behind.dddddddddddddil Rashid (2-110) then tk two well-deserved wickets to end the innings, with Jayant Yadav top-edging an attempted slog-sweep, and Umesh Yadav (13) picking out the man at deep midwicket.Ck fell in the third over of Englands reply, bowled by a beauty from Shami (1-15) that split his off-stump in half, though Hameed and Rt dug in and stuck it out till tea. Watch the best of the action from Day Two of the Second Test in Visakhapatnam But Hameeds run out - courtesy of some terrific work in the deep from Jayant Yadav and a fantastic flick onto the stumps from Saha - early in the final session, signalled a big momentum shift in the match.A jubilant Indian outfit made further inroads on a pitch that seems now to be offering considerable turn for the spinners, and variable bounce for the seamers.Duckett (5) again showed t much off his stumps to the off-spin of Ashwin and was beaten, bowled, while Rts dismissal would have been the most disappointing - a miscued drive over the top picking out the man at long-off. Ravichandran Ashwin celebrates the wicket of Ben Duckett, one of two he picked up in the evening session on day two Jayant Yadav (1-11) then picked up a wicket with just his eighth delivery in Test cricket, Moeen falling lbw on review after initially being given not out by the umpire.Stokes (12no) and Jonny Bairstow (12no) safely negotiated the final 14.4 overs in the day, though India were convinced they had the former out caught behind off Jadeja, and wasted a review, with replays showing there was no edge.Live coverage of the second Test between India and England from Visakhapatnam continues with day three, on Sky Sports 2 from 3.45am on Saturday.
