DENVER -- Lately, the Denver Broncos ground game lacked some punch.Suddenly, they have a potent 1-2 combination.C.J. Anderson and rookie Devontae Booker took turns carving up the Houston Texans in a 27-9 win on Monday night. Anderson finished with 107 yards -- his first 100-yard performance before Halloween in his career -- and a score .Not to be overshadowed, Booker gained 83 yards and also found the end zone.Everything was clicking today, Anderson said.That hasnt been the case in recent weeks for the Broncos, whove struggled to get much going on the ground. After gaining 148 yards in their opener against Carolina and 134 in Week 2 against the Colts, the Broncos (5-2) saw their totals slip to 52 against Cincinnati, 89 against Tampa Bay and 84 against Atlanta and San Diego.Against Houston, one of the worst run defenses in the league, the Broncos gained 190 yards on 35 carries. Both tailbacks were doing so well that neither wanted to come out.Anderson wouldnt even make eye contact with the bench and shrugged his arms when he saw Booker running onto the field.It just feels good to be fresh -- thats the way I look at it, Anderson explained. If Booker and I can keep this 1-2 punch, we can help our defense out. We can definitely go as far as we want to.Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said last week that Booker deserved more carries. He followed through with his plan, too -- Booker had 17 attempts and Anderson 16.You can see he has some young juice to him, Kubiak said. He gives us the ability to make some big plays. Hes pushing C.J. to be the best he can be and C.J. responded tonight and played extremely well.For the Texans (4-3), its back to the drawing board. Theyre now allowing 135.4 yards rushing per game.We didnt do a good job in the run support, Texans cornerback Johnathan Joseph said. Anytime you want to give yourself a chance to win, stopping the run is one of the first things you have to do.All the talk around this game was how quarterback Brock Osweiler was lured out of town by Houston with a mega deal. But Denver nearly lost Anderson as well, before Broncos general manager John Elway matched Miamis four-year, $18 million offer in the offseason.This was the reason why they brought Anderson back.I put more on myself to make more plays, said Anderson, a Pro Bowler in 2014.Booker scored his first NFL touchdown on a 1-yard plunge in the third quarter. That football is going into a case and will be stored at his parents house in California, he said.Everybody expects more out of us and we wanted to make a difference out there tonight, said Booker, who rushed for 1,261 yards as a senior at Utah before a late-season knee injury sidelined him. We did complement each other. Him going in there and running hard, then I come in as a change-of-pace and run hard again. Its just breaking the defense down.---Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Stapleton contributed.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Caster Semenya is the Olympic champion nearly seven years to the day after she arrived in track and field and sparked a controversy so complex and so sensitive, the sport is still struggling to deal with it.Against her wishes, the 25-year-old South African has become the face of the debate over whether women with much higher levels of testosterone than normal should be allowed to compete, unchecked, in top-level athletics. Because of Semenya, the IAAF put rules in place in 2011 to regulate womens testosterone levels, believing that high levels of the hormone gave them an unfair advantage. But the rules were dropped last year after a legal challenge by Indian sprinter Dutee Chand and were not in place at the Olympics.Semenya and Chand are not the only ones the rules were apparently lifted for. There are also believed to be other female athletes to compete at the Rio Games with a condition called hyperandrogenism, giving them abnormally high levels of naturally-occurring testosterone.Heres Semenyas story up to now, and an explanation of hyperandrogenism rules:---August, 2009:Semenya wins the 800-meter world title in Berlin as an 18-year-old newcomer, dominating a field packed full of the worlds best runners to triumph by a huge margin -- and stunning everyone watching. It was only half the story. Hours before the race, news leaked that the IAAF had conducted unspecified medical tests on the teenager. The tests -- likely to verify Semenyas sex and also to measure her testosterone levels -- led to her being declared ineligible to compete for 11 months. The IAAF has never commented publicly on the medical details of Semenyas case. It was also later revealed that South Africas track federation asked Semenya to have medical examinations.---March, 2010:Suspended -- apparently because of her high testosterone levels -- and frustrated with being forced to sit on the sidelines, Semenya turns up at a track meet in Stellenbosch, South Africa and demands to be allowed to run. Organizers, respecting the IAAF suspension, didnt let her. In a statement released through her lawyers, she then made clear her feelings:I have been subjected to unwarranted and invasive scrutiny of the most intimate and private details of my being, Semenya said. Some of the occurrences leading up to and immediately following the Berlin World Championships have infringed on not only my rights as an athlete but also my fundamental and human rights.It was one of few occasions where Semenya has spoken publicly about her situation.---July, 2010:In a brief, three-sentence statement, the IAAF announces that Semenya is cleared to compete again against other women, nearly a year after her gold at the worlds. The IAAF gave no details, only saying: The process initiated in 20099 in the case of Caster Semenya (RSA) has now been completed.ddddddddddddThe process the IAAF referred to is believed to be a course of testosterone-suppressing medication to reduce Semenyas hormone levels to within the normal female range. She kept her world championships gold medal and title.---September, 2011:Semenya, likely while taking the hormone medication, wins silver in the 800 meters at the world championships in Daegu, South Korea, behind Russias Mariya Savinova.---August, 2012:Semenya, a hero back home, carries South Africas flag in the opening ceremony at the London Olympics. On the track, she again finishes with silver behind Savinova, the Russian athlete now accused of doping. But the controversy over Semenya is stirred again when a television commentator suggests she may have lost intentionally to avoid the scrutiny that would come with a gold medal. Semenya dismisses the suggestion as nonsense.---2013-15:In terms of results on the track, its the toughest period in Semenyas career. Struggling with injury, and going through multiple coaching changes, Semenya slips down the pecking order in the 800. Its also speculated that the hormone medication is having an effect on her performances. In 2014, Semenyas best time was 2 minutes, 2.66 seconds, a huge seven seconds slower than the personal-best of 1:55.45 she ran in that breakthrough race at the 2009 world champs. She didnt even qualify for the final of the 2015 world championships a year ago, finishing last in her semifinal.---July, 2015:But a month before those 2015 worlds, a decision is made in sports highest court that has a huge bearing on Semenyas story. The Indian runner Chand opens up about her hyperandrogenism -- the only current athlete to do so -- and challenges the IAAF on rules that limit womens naturally-occurring testosterone. She won a temporary order, and the IAAF was told to drop the rules regulating testosterone until they can show how much of an advantage it gives to athletes.---July, 2016:Semenya, back to the dominating form of 2009 and easily the strongest 800 meter runner in the world again, runs a personal-best time of 1:55.33 at the Diamond League meet in Monaco. Its the fastest anywhere in the world for eight years. She goes even faster at the Rio Olympics.---Aug. 20, 2016:Semenya wins her first Olympic title, with her victory coming two hours after IAAF President Sebastian Coe, who was at the Olympic Stadium, says the international athletics body will go back to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in an attempt to have the testosterone-limiting rules reinstated.---Follow Gerald Imray on Twitter: https://twitter.com/GeraldImrayAP ' ' '
