DENVER -- Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Wade Phillips knows his team has depth and he has nothing but confidence in each and every player.
When folks wonder about injuries, he just offers his tilted smile and with his trademark Texas drawl “we have a lot of good players and we like to play ‘em all.’’
That they do with starting cornerback Aqib Talib, starting linebacker Brandon Marshall and even Phillips himself, after a sideline collision sent the 69-year-old to a local hospital in the first half, out the Broncos defense still flashed its teeth and scored its third touchdown of the year in a 27-19 victory over the San Diego Chargers.
