CINCINNATI -- One penalty for holding. Vontaze Burfict has been nearly blameless in his 10 games this season, a statistical suggestion that the Bengals linebacker has finally changed his ways.The best test comes when he finally faces the Steelers on Sunday.Burfict played the key role in Cincinnatis playoff meltdown at Paul Brown Stadium last January. His hit to Antonio Browns head left the receiver with a concussion, moved the Steelers into range for the winning field goal with 18 seconds left, and drew a three-game suspension from the NFL. It was his fourth penalty last season for unnecessary roughness.The volatile linebackers coaches and teammates tried to get him to rein in his emotions and follow the rules this season while remaining an impact player. There was some question about whether he could pull off the change. So far, he has.I think mentally hes at a spot now where hes like, `All right, Im just going to play football, said cornerback Adam Pacman Jones, who also drew a 15-yard penalty in the final minute of the playoff meltdown. By far hes one of the best linebackers in the league, if not the best. So I think hes done a good job of letting his play talk. He still has his edge, but he picks and chooses his battles now.Burfict has avoided talking to the media this week leading up to his rematch with the Steelers (8-5) , who lead the AFC North and can eliminate Cincinnati (5-7-1) as the defending champions on Sunday.Burfict and Steelers players extended the nastiness to social media in the offseason; itll be their first time to trash talk face-to-face.Theyll try to get him riled up.I would too, Jones said. Hell be all right.Burficts production hasnt diminished along with the penalties. Despite missing three games because of the suspension and getting eased back into his role, Burfict leads the team in tackles and has a pair of interceptions and a pair of sacks.He is incredible in his ability to diagnose, coach Marvin Lewis said. Its been recognizable that way since the very first day he was here. Hes smart. He understands plays and puts himself in position.And so far, hes kept himself out of trouble, heeding the urgings that he has to change the way he plays.The game has changed, defensive coordinator Paul Guenther said. In the 1980s, he would have been on the cover of `NFL Crunch Time. He would have been the poster child. Now, its different. Its a different game, and its evolving every week and every year, really. And thats the thing hes got to understand.Game notes The Bengals moved their practice to the University of Cincinnatis covered field because of the cold temperatures. Cincinnati is the only northern team without its own covered field. ... DE Wallace Gilberry (calf) was held out of practice again. WR A.J. Green (hamstring), G Clint Boling (shoulder) and TE T.J Uzomah (calf) had limited practices. Green returned to practice on Wednesday after missing three games with a strained right hamstring. ...

Still undetermined is who will direct the Broncos revamped offense.Journeyman Mark Sanchez, rookie Paxton Lynch and the unheralded Trevor Siemian are in the mix at quarterback for the Broncos, who lost Brock Osweiler to free agency 48 hours after Peyton Mannings misty-eyed retirement.No team has successfully defended its Super Bowl title since the 2004 New England Patriots. The Broncos are the first team since the 2001 Baltimore Ravens to try to go back to back after losing its top two QBs.After losing the bidding duel with Houston for Osweiler, GM John Elway acquired Sanchez from the Eagles and outmaneuvered Jerry Jones to select Lynch out of Memphis in the first round of the draft.Yet, it was Siemian, the 2015 seventh-rounder with just one snap on his resume, who looked the sharpest in Denvers drama-filled offseason, putting him in prime position to upset Sanchez for the starting job.I think theyre looking each other right in the eye throughout the whole course of the offseason as far who is ahead and who is one or two, coach Gary Kubiak said.I think those two guys are right there with each other. I think its a very competitive situation. Theyre obviously ahead of our young guy just from a mental standpoint right now.Ideally, Lynch would sit a season as he adjusts to the NFL after running the spread offense in college.Both Sanchez and Siemian took the briefest of summer vacations before returning to Denver to continue their quest to take over an offense that features just four returning starters.The defense lost Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan to free agency, but returns most members of the one of the best defenses in NFL history. His defense is so devastating that Kubiak wont have to wait for the preseason games to see which of his quarterbacks is his guy.Kubiak said hell ratchet up the pressure -- easier with Miller back in uniform -- and run plenty of no-huddle over the first couple of weeks of training camp to see wholl win the job.Other things to pay attention to as the Broncos defend their title:MILLERS MILLIONS: Miller predicted peaceful contract negotiations 12 hours after spearheading Denvers 24-10 win over Carolina in the Super Bowl. Although things got testy at times and Elway refused to let Millers camp seek a trade, the sides got a deal done that they believe is a win-win. Miller ggets $70 million guaranteed and Elway gets several more seasons out of the man hes called the best player on the planet.dddddddddddd After spending more time on the dance floor than the football field over the past six months, the Broncos need Miller to be the same demolition man he was in the playoffs.MILLERS MINIONS: Two big question marks still face Denvers defense: DeMarcus Wares balky back and Aqib Talibs wounded right leg. Ware didnt participate in a single snap in the offseason as his bad back that limited him to 11 games last season acted up again. Talib said he feels fine and is full-go after recovering from a gunshot wound to his right thigh and calf last month in a shooting in Dallas. Even if he returns to his superstar level, Talib, whos had firearm incidents in the past, could face legal consequences and punishment from the NFL.NEW O-LINE: The Broncos won it all behind a patchwork offensive line that was dissembled not long after the victory parade attended by more than a million fans. Elway jettisoned right guard Louis Vasquez and let left tackle Ryan Harris and left guard Evan Mathis sign elsewhere. With Max Garcia moving to left guard and Michael Schofield to swing tackle behind free agent acquisitions Russell Okung and Donald Stephenson, only center Matt Paradis returns at his 2015 position.NEW OFFENSE: The Broncos ditched their hybrid offense when Manning retired. Expect more two tight end sets and heavy doses of hand offs to C.J. Anderson and rookie Devontae Booker, who will be running behind fullbacks Andy Janovich and Juwan Thompson. At tight end, the Broncos said farewell to Vernon Davis and Owen Daniels and brought in Garrett Graham and Henry Krieger Coble. Jeff Heuerman, who missed his rookie season with a knee injury, returns alongside veteran Virgil Green.SANDERS NEXT: Elway said he had a trio of priorities this summer: re-signing linebackers Miller and Brandon Marshall along with receiver Emmanuel Sanders. Hes 2 for 3 with Miller and Marshall (four years, $32 million) done. Sanders is entering the final season of his three-year, $15 million deal.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton ' ' '
