Hah. The fact is that Elway has done a great job running the Broncos. At first we had the Elway-Fox-Xanders Front Office. VP/GM/HC. Elway called Xanders out a bit for not having the personality necessary for the GM spot, but it looked like it was going to be those three guys running things. Then Elway gets comfortable, Xanders is gone. It's Elway running the show. It goes Bowlen (owner) Joe Ellis (Pres) Elway (VP) Fox (HC).
Say what you will about signing Manning. It was Ellis' idea and Elway made it happen. It's not like the idea itself was so brilliant, many teams wanted Manning. The part that pisses off some of you KC fans is that Elway did it. That's not the only off season personnel move that the Broncos pulled off. They've had a couple of good drafts and made solid FA signings. So...yes. Elway is running a team better than your GM. Bitch and moan all you want. There are a lot of you that look like fools for how much you ragged on him when he took the job. Cry into a tall glass of bitter grape juice. It doesn't matter. He's getting the job done. |

Boy howdy, you sure told them!! Feel better?? We suck, we know we suck, and we know our GM is to blame. Sour grapes?? Hardly - most of us would prefer that Elway catches AIDS on his way to a plane crash. Y'alls 1st Super Bowl is tainted - the NFL handed that to you. That was a CATCH at the end of the 1st drive the second half - and you KNOW Gonzalez's feet were in, just like I do. Suck it, Donk.

We'll find out just how good Elway is when Manning hangs it up. He's basically doing the exact same thing King Carl did when he got here.
Except King Carl got a better coach. I'll say this: I'm not at all impressed with Denver's draft picks outside of Von Miller and Derek Wolfe. Hitting on 1 draft pick a year isn't impressive. |

There you go. At least that's an honest response.

Elway offered Manning a suitcase full of under the table cash, Clark offered to share a 2 for 20 from Appelbees.

Whole truth, but i bet Clarks offer wasnt quite as bad as may have been expected. He just had no intention of being piolis pet dog, on currently, a team with no direction or vision, the word is surely long out on pioli... like any real competitor, he would take the same or even less money to win again. Pioli and his gestapo are killing it all. |

It's all good. We'll have the only young franchise QB in the division after the draft this year.
But, but, but Assweiler!!!!

A mediocre GM can craft some ****ing amazing teams if he's got a real QB and gets lucky on a few drafts.
A great GM can craft some ****ing amazing teams by creating his own QB and luck. A shitty GM will craft an enormous shithole of misery and sadness if he's as bad as Pioli. I doubt Elway is the third type. It's between the first and second types that we don't know. |

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.
