Denver Broncos' good news continues to pile on before they kick off against the New Orleans Saints

The Denver Broncos have struggled on offense this year with the defense picking up some of that slack. Now, the offense does need to get their stuff together, but it has to feel good that the defense is as good as it is, and they've been without one of their best players for most of the year, and another rotational piece as well.

As for the offense, well, a lot of their issues have come by way of the offensive line, which just hasn't been what we all thought it would be. Now, no one is saying the offensive line should have been one of the best in the league, but, it should have been better than what we have seen so far.

Now, they will not only be getting some help and reinforcements back on the defense, but they will be on the offense as well.

According to the Broncos, they have activated Baron Browning back from IR, who hasn't played since Week 2, as well as offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey and cornerback Damarri Mathis.

This is huge for both sides of the ball, as they get ready to face a New Orleans Saints team that has shown they can win big-time games, despite their loss last week to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Two weeks ago, the Broncos dominated the Las Vegas Raiders but then lost to the Los Angeles Chargers in a game that should have been a win. Both sides are looking to bounce back. Oh, did I mention this is a homecoming for Sean Payton, as he visits the team he won a Super Bowl with for the first time since he left?

Thursday Night Football should be a ton of fun as two rookie quarterbacks are set to face one another.
