Steptide Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 It's probably been mentioned, but this could make the game against kc this week a little more interesting. Maybe a new coach will put some life into the team for a few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Been waiting for this day since he was hired. He last much longer than I had anticipated. Always been a bum. Got named AR’s OC during MVP season and people think he helped. He didn’t. He’s always sucked 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I guess now he can go back to carrying Doug Marrone's books from class to class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not "super bowl" good, but good enough to push the Chiefs for the division and a pretty good bet to make the playoffs. I had lots of company. The 2021 Broncos were a good team that looked like they were just a QB away from being a playoff team. Wilson has been a solid QB. Denver didn't need RW at his peak -- they would have been really good with just a decent facsimile of RW. But they didn't even get that. And of course Hackett was a serious liability too. This is one that I just got wrong in the offseason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given their aspirations and the resources they parted with? Never underestimate the quack at the Raiders.. Talk about should have NEVER gotten another HC gig.

T&C Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 He's getting paid 4 mil. a year, these HC gigs are guaranteed cash flow lol. "Hackett signed a four-year deal with the Broncos in January and will be paid the entire contract if he doesn’t land another job. If he returns to the NFL in another capacity, he’ll get paid for that work from his new employer and the Broncos will make up the difference to pay his head coach salary."

bigK14094 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Hacket probabilygot 20-25 mil for 4 years. He can afford to wait it out, or retire. I knew from his time in Buffalo that it wasn't going to work out as a HC. Bronco's will be paying a long time for this mistake along w the QB mistake. Lots of Bronco fans still shaking their head they took Chubb instead of Josh Allen in the draft. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ain't a place he's going to go to without a lot of coaxing. Given the success of Brock Purdy and Baker Mayfield in recent weeks I'd suspect anyone tied to the Shanny tree is going to be a hot commodity. Jets might even lose their LaFleur brother.

People love picking on Irsay and Saturday with the Colts, but the Bills bringing the Syracuse Orange football staff to the NFL in the 21st century might be the biggest coaching joke of all time. Thanks, Russ. 1 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking maybe Reich would have a possibility of landing there. Don't think Payton would take it as it's cap hell again. I would think DeMeco Ryan lands somewhere before Frazier. He's young and running the best D in San Francisco. Agree on Payton, although he would be a good choice if he's interested. Not so sure about Reich. Think he maybe too QB friendly and not so sure that is what Denver needs. I was thinking the Broncos need someone steady, players like and has some experience. Think that lockeroom is a mess and they'll be looking for someone to help create a new culture. Just thoughts. I have no idea at this point what direction they'll go, but can't be worse than this year was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 If the Broncos are stuck with Russ until 2026, which I read in multiple reports, then to get a good coach will require a ton of cash. It will be difficult to rebuild there when your most expensive player is playing so poorly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobbRiddick Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I love when teams release statements thanking the guy they just fired. I know they have to but it's a little like putting a statement out to the guys who burgled your house, thanking them for helping you to de-clutter 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
