I'm just not going to get all wrapped up in what's happening right now. I control 100% of none of it. So, we'll let the cards fall as they may and go from there.

I'd love to see my team win another SB, but I'm not going to let the success or failure along that path ruin the game for me. The ending of the last two seasons sucked, but the seasons were fun.

On to the next chapter in this book... we'll see if the lead character changes, at some point it will happen.

Taking the Chief route?

Good luck with that.

It's not that Manning can't learn a new system. It's more a matter of does he want to given he has AT MOST one good year in him left. Does he want to spend his final season being the teacher AND the learner at the same time?

I really wouldn't if I were him. And to be honest, I wouldn't want to if I were the Broncos. I'd want to start the new system ASAP with my next long term guy, or at least somebody who can be there for 2-3 years. Manning is not that QB.

This is a very confusing decision by Elway. I get that he wants Kubiak and has a plan and everything, but I also don't get that he WANTS Manning to come back if he wants to.

Here's an interesting article. It's about kicking a Field Goal when you have 4th down on the 1 yard line, as McCarthy did against Seattle yesterday:

http://thebiglead.com/2015/01/19/mik...one-yard-away/

I saw it referenced on IAOFM :

Going for the John Fox Special isn’t as safe an idea as one might think

Mike McCarthy and Kicking from One Yard Away
thebiglead.com

Teams that went for it and converted, to take a touchdown lead, ultimately went 19-5 in those games.
Teams that went for it and failed, to remain tied and leave the opponent usually backed up inside the 1 yard line, went 15-5.
Teams that kicked the field goal (all of them made), to take a three point lead and then kickoff, went 13-14.

Here's hoping we're not referring to it as the Gary Kubiak Special next year...

Yeah, I think this is an example of people over-thinking the issue.

Elway wants Kubiak (lol) because the NFL is an incestuous cluster that makes Oedipus blush, and both Elway and his new bitch sure as hell want Teabagger Vance to return next year.

Even though his dick is partially broken, he's still a shit ton better than a lot of chum floating around the NFL.

I don't know, I think they view as most do ... really only have 1 more year with Manning and then you're starting over in 2 years. So, do you spend the $20+M and gamble or do you say "f*** it, we gave it a run and and some fun for 3 years?"

OT, but I saw this line on Reddit, and I thought I'd give a Broncos fan some props for keeping his humor:

45-7? 43-8 not looking so bad now.

listopencil · 01-20-2015, 05:22 PM

Just to keep it to one thread:

I was thinking Dennis Allen would be a decent choice for Kubiak's DC but I just heard that he went to the Saints. I had heard some buzz about maybe Fangio but he went to Chicago. The Broncos interviewed Joseph (Bengals secondary coach) for the HC position but now they want to talk to him about being the DC. The Bengals have not given him permission, and they blocked a guy before in this situation, so I'm waiting to see what happens when the Bengals talk to Joseph about it.

Vance Joseph will--probably, 95% sure--be the Broncos next DC.

I think he's the guy they want.

NBC Washington reports Bengals DBs coach Vance Joseph will be released from his contract so he can "pursue opportunities to become a defensive coordinator."
Joseph has been rumored to be a leading candidate to coordinate Gary Kubiak's defense in Denver. He's also been linked elsewhere. Joseph should officially have a new job before the end of the week. Jan. 20 - 5:53 pm et
