--Broncos fullback Andrew Pinnock, who signed on Tuesday, said he felt surprisingly good running with the scout team during Wednesday's practice. He didn't know what the coaches' plan was for him to see his first game action but he thought he was close to being ready to play.
"If the coaches put me in the plan, say 'We'd like you to play,' I know I can," Pinnock said. "But I think they're not going to rush me back."
--The Broncos are ready for the Jets' 3-4 defense this week, because they have seen a lot of it. With the 3-4 becoming more popular around the league, it's less of a shock for teams to prepare against it.
"It used to be only a few teams, but now it seems like everyone is running it," Cutler said. "We are comfortable with it and we have the blocking schemes down."
--Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler often gets compared to Brett Favre because the two are both strong-armed quarterbacks that like to take chances.
"I grew up watching Brett Favre and I have kind of admired his game," Cutler said. "I don't know if this is his last year or if he has some more in him, but he is one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play."
Cutler and Favre share the same agent, James "Bus" Cook.
BY THE NUMBERS: 7,534 -- Quarterback Jay Cutler's yardage through his first 32 career games. Jets quarterback Brett Favre had 6,995 through his first 32 games.
