I don't my friend, I get where you are coming from and I hate the Broncos more than anyone but living out here and watching all their games. The two areas that they are weak are obviously QB and o-line. There o-line is 1-2 guys away from being good. Otherwise their draft picks on the d side of the ball have all panned out for the most part and they have a very good D, the problem has been these past few years since their SB run is that their D IS ALWAYS on the field and they are gassed by the 4th qrt. They have very good WRs, and Javonte Williams is legit and tough to bring down. If they got a good HC with a decent veteran QB they are seriously competitive again. Just saying.:-)
If Elway still has any say in the hiring decisions then we are still good to dominate!!:-) [Reply]
Rodgers is supposed to be getting married in February, so his life is probably non-football centered right now. I know he's sideways with his family. Could make the wedding reception interesting. Man, how could he have let Olivia Munn get loose? She just had a kid with comedian John Mulvaney! [Reply]
It is hard to imagine Rodgers coming to this division but by all accounts it wouldn't bother him.
The real worry isn't beating Rodgers, it's Burrow and Allen sitting over there in their weaker divisions getting homefield advantage every year while the Chiefs, Chargers and Broncos beat the crap out of each other. [Reply]

Has any HC move been so poorly conceived and then telegraphed?
If they don't get Rodgers, this is a grade A clusterfuck of a hire. [Reply]

True. But Denver has a lot of cap space. They have decent weapons at TE and Wr, and it would not be beyond the possibility that they could add Davante as well. I think hiring a coach that runs a offense he is familiar with and probably promises to open up and throw a lot more may very well be more of a selling point then going to run first teams of Tennessee or Colts, Miami is more wait and see who they hire but from early accounts they plan on giving Tua the reigns.

First, nobody is getting Rodgers AND Adams. That's just not going to happen.
Second, the Packers became a run-first team at the worst possible times this past season. If Rodgers really wants a change, he's not hitching his wagon to that. [Reply]
Unless they had already worked out some parameters for a trade, and had it approved by Rodgers, it would be a massive reach to think that you could just hire an OC and that will mean you'll get Rodgers. [Reply]

Yup. They'll also get scheduled against slapdicks in their non-divisional games and the Chiefs will have a top 5 schedule.
It sucks, but that's the way things are now. [Reply]

That is an excellent, yet very disconcerting point [Reply]

Like I said a few times today, if they REALLY hired Hackett because they think it will land them Rodgers, they're beyond dumb. I mean has ANY team every done something so hilariously stupid? [Reply]
