Looks like this forum needs a thread. Lets get everyone healthy, win the rest of our games and hope the Pats somehow drop a game!

John Fox - out! Per Chris Mortensen... Discuss! If that was his own decision, I'm not exactly sure why he'd leave. Even with the uncertainty in Denver next year, there aren't really any better opportunities open right now. |

Having experienced one of those here 21 years ago - I'm calling bullshit. |

But that isn't the biggest decision pending there - is it?

49ers meeting with Gase tonight. Better job? 49ers with Kap, or the Denver Osweiller's? |

I'm still not convinced about Kap. I'm probably wrong. But - He has a skin or two on the wall. I guess it comes down to what kind of relationship Gase has with the Teeth.

Entire Broncos coaching staff let go, discuss Doesn't sound like an endorsement for Gase - does it? This is the definition of "blowing it up".
Also - did you see the tweet that Fox may be going to Chicago?

Indeed. I wonder if Manning has already let them know his intentions for next year? Seems awful sudden. |

And yeah, time to hang em up for Peyton. Not to mention the Thomas bros are both FAs, Fox probably gets shit canned...I can see them blowing the whole thing up.

Different expectations...
“@arnettrick: Bengals Marvin Lewis 100-90 & 0-6 playoffs. RT @sportstaxman John Fox was 46-18 as #Broncos coach in regular season but 3-3 in post season.”

Fox is no fool. He can see the holes in that Bronco ship and they will get bigger and bigger. FA losses, an aging QB who cannot make all the throws anymore and defense know it and I say is too proud to hang around and get beat up for another year on a team that may need some serious rebuild.
The Broncos arrow is not pointing up and it hasn't the whole last half of this past season.

I say they all buy some legal weed and sit down at the fifty yard line and think this through what they should do next. Worked for me back in the day. All except the part about it being legal.

John Fox - out! Per Chris Mortensen... Discuss! That was a huge surprise to me! I wonder if it was more him knowing Peyton was done and he wanted out, or if it was just Elway with win or else. |

Might have been a little of both although how he could see Chicago as a better option is beyond me. All about expectations. Fox can't handle superbowl or bust.......going into a job were you are already expected to lose the division is much more comforting. |

And with Cutler as his QB, those expectations should be met nicely. |

Osweiler or Manning? How about both? Posted by Mike Florio on December 22, 2015, 7:59 PM EST cD05ODdlNmNhY2MwMjRlZWQzNTJhM2ViYTQ1Y2VlY2YzOCZnPWE4NDBhY2U1MGM1Mzk5YTAxZjdiNWNhZTQ1NjdjZjJl AP As the Broncos “start from scratch” in their effort to identify a starting quarterback for next Monday night’s game against the Bengals, the overriding question is whether it will be Brock Osweiler or Peyton Manning. Here’s a thought: Why not both? The Cardinals did it back in 2007, and rotating Matt Leinart and Kurt Warner worked for the Cardinals until Leinart, who wasn’t thrilled with the arrangement, suffered a season-ending broken collarbone. It’s unclear whether rotating Osweiler and Manning would make the Denver offense better. Based on their individual performances this year, it can’t get a whole lot worse. Until he exited the lineup with a foot injury, the Broncos thrived under Manning not because of him but in spite of him. With Osweiler, a promising start has devolved into an offense that can’t score points in the second half. So with no real rhythm under either guy, why not swap them back and forth? It would be unconventional, to say the least. But the disparity in the styles of the two quarterbacks would impose maximum pressure on an opposing defense forced to prepare not for either of them but for both of them. And it would be strangely coincidental, to say the least, to see Peyton Manning’s NFL career (or at least his career in Denver) end with the same up-down approach that highlighted the last year of his chief rival Tom Brady’s college career. Surely, neither Osweiler nor Manning would like the approach — and we won’t need sources close to either guy to confirm that as part of a “Sunday splash” report that morphs into an unintended belly smacker. But the alternative for one of the two guys will be to not play at all. And the tactic could end up giving the offense the kind of spark it needs, with coach Gary Kubiak displaying the kind of flexibility and creativity that could cement Denver’s postseason berth, and that also could propel the Broncos deeper into the postseason than they’d get by using either guy exclusively. profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/12/22/osweiler-or-manning-how-about-both/#comment-4762762 |
