OC McCoy leaves donks to lead dolts

[ChiefMojo]

He may be a good coach but IMO he got to much credit for the Tebow miracle and of course Manning ran that offense this year. Then again he may be a good CEO type?

To be honest hire is meh to me. Then again it looked like the Chargers weren't looking for a big name either... very Todd Haley like hire.

He DID change the offense to suit Teblow's "skills" though. Additionally, he managed to make Kyle freaking Orton look like a decent QB. If he can get Rivers back to elite status, then it's a good hire.

Orton still looked like a decent QB in KC.... To decent and to much of a threat to Cassel.

As someone pointed out, that's the same Kyle Orton who was benched for Tebow...

1) Josh McDaniels brought Orton up to speed. Orton mentioned that a few times. He said that he learned more in the limited time under McD than he had in his career up to that point.

2) McCoy was kept to provide continuity in our Offense when McD was fired. It didn't work, Orton was benched for Tebow.

3) The Broncos tried to use the same O with Tebow out there at first. It failed even worse than with Orton.

4) The Broncos then switched to a college read-option O and had some success with it. No one really knows who is responsible for that decision, because the HC is the kind of guy that says things like, "Well, we are blah blah blah..." No matter who made the decision it's not exactly all that creative. I could see John Fox sitting at a meeting with the other coaches. I could see it going something like:

Fox: We need more production from the Offense.
O staff: We need a Quarterback then.
Fox: You have Tebow. Call plays that he can understand.
O staff: What? You mean like bullshit JuCo QB sneaks all day?
Fox: Hmmm. Men, I think we are onto something.

Orton is a decent qb IMO
