One of the men tasked with protecting Peyton Manning will miss more than a month for the Broncos.

Right guard Chris Kuper broke his forearm during a drill at Tuesday’s practice. Mike Klis of the Denver Post reports that Kuper will miss six weeks while he recuperates, a time frame that would keep him out of the first three regular season games.

The blow is extra painful because Kuper had just made a comeback from a serious leg injury. Kuper suffered a nasty left ankle dislocation and broke his left leg in the final week of the 2011 regular season and missed OTAs and minicamp as a result of that injury. Now he’s got another injury to deal with and the Broncos have to replace one of their better offensive linemen on the fly.

Manny Ramirez is next on the depth chart, although Klis suggests the Broncos could kick Orlando Franklin inside while starting either Ryan Harris or Chris Clark at right tackle. However they fill Kuper’s spot on the field, Denver will have a hard time replacing the production they were counting on from Kuper in the first few weeks of the season.

I hope Pittsburgh blitzes the shit out of them week 1.

Chris Kuper is starting to remind me of that knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Oh darn. I am so upset by this news.

I guess Kuper didn't drink milk when he was a kid...

Doesn't matter. The word is out to allow Denver's line to hold until jerseys are torn off.

Google Earth proves that the broncos o line will be ok

Manny will be Manny. I ain't gonna play no O-line, mang.

Hopefully Clady goes down next.

Generally it's not good to wish inj on another player,

but seriously **** DENVER!!!!

good news ... we need their Oline to be a severe weakness.

I want Manning to be black and blue from head-to-toe.

Can't wait till Manny decides to take a bathroom break during the play and Manning gets crushed.

I'd like to see us get after Manning but I dont want our players to even thing bout putting a bounty on him. That would be bad to end up like the New Orleans Saints.
