John Elway is turning out to be a pretty darn good GM

[Bump]

He went out and got Peyton Manning and now look at them. He won a playoff game with Tim freaking Tebow.

We should try this. Will Shields for GM! Our own hall of fame player from the same era. Let's do this. Get it done Clark.

Whole truth, but i bet Clarks offer wasnt quite as bad as may have been expected.

He just had no intention of being *****s pet dog, on currently, a team with no direction or vision, the word is surely long out on *****... like any real competitor, he would take the same or even less money to win again.

***** and his gestapo are killing it all.

The really sad part is they probably told him he'd be competing with Cassel

And you have to lay the responsibility at *****'s feet for how the Chiefs are performing. He got his Head Coach (twice) and he got his Quarterback. I would argue that ***** is at least partially responsible for that toxic work environment himself.

Partially?

It's kind of a chicken-or-the-egg thing. One one hand he's responsible for everything because he seems to be completely in charge of the whole organization. On the other hand you can lay blame on the Head Coaches, the coaching staff, Mark Asshole and his traveling dingleberries at the QB position, and other players who don't seem to be playing hard/well. But that still goes back to ***** who, it seems, hand picked much of that. So I went with "at least partially."

[Mr. Laz]

so now stupid ****s are going to go around sucking off other teams because they are pouting about ours.


smh

[tecumseh]

Are you kidding? That jizz lipped donkeyface foreskin chomping dishrag handjobs Manning into the team and you think he's golden? Piss all over this.

It's pretty ****ing embarrassing when our franchise drafts 3 slapdick DL in the top of the first round and Denver trades into the 2nd round and gets a good one.

He gets credit as a front office personnel manager for his playing career and business acumen. The guy clearly said the right words to Manning to get him to sign there, likely referencing his own brilliant playing career to foster that relationship.

We'll see how well his drafts ACTUALLY translate after some more time. Those Chiefs starters we drafted long ago are 1-8 now, but in 2010 they looked just as impressive as Elway's guys do (excluding Von Miller, who is a significant grade above anybody ***** has drafted). A toxic work environment, shitty coaching staff, and a few slapdicks at QB later, you get the 1-8 product you see before you.

John Fox is no Romeo Crennel, so I'm not saying your team would go 1-8 even if Manning got injured or retired. But you'll excuse me if I don't call Elway a ****ing football personnel genius just yet.

you don't get to discount his two best acquistions when evaqluating him as a GM... you're basically saying he is the same as Pioili if you remove Miller and Manning from the equation, who happen to be arguably offenive and defensive mvps of the league...thats ridiculous...

and just to clarify, its not impressive that elway decided to go after manning, many teams did... the part he gets credit for is convincing him to come to denver over all the other choices, where many thought wasnt a good fit for him...

and a crappy coaching staff and toxic work environment are part of the responsibilities of the GM/VP of Op as well, ***** owns that...i could name other players and coaches elway has brought in but i imagine you are aware of them for the most part...

whether you want to admit it or not, since elway has arrived as the guy in charge things have turned for Denver...

It's more of a "who is this douche" post. The "rep" thing isn't a huge deal

It's nice to see a voice of reason in this thread.

Anyone can get big-name free agents if they pay money under the table. Elway received money that way and now he pays money that way.
