Week 3 of the preseason is often considered the dress rehearsal for the regular season. As a result, we should expect to see the starters for the Denver Broncos and San Francisco 49ers get extended playing time when the two teams collide in Denver on Saturday night.
The Broncos are coming off a 14-10 victory over the Houston Texans last week in which the team came from behind to win late after nearly gifting the game to Houston following a defensive touchdown by the Texans.
It had to feel good for head coach Gary Kubiak to get a win over his former team, even if the game doesn't count in the standings.
