NEW INFO: Entire Broncos coaching staff let go. Not just John Fox. All assistants gone according to several players.



HOLY SHIT! Don't fuck with Elway

damn! can't wait to see what direction he takes the team.

 

[Milchjon]

So losing in the playoffs because your QB is barely held together by a few pieces of wrinkly skin will get everyone fired.

I hope the Broncos go 2-14 next year...

 

[rando14]

Probably straight into the ground.

FUCKK. Burning the whole fucking thing down.

[JABEE]

I wonder what this means for Demaryius and Julius Thomas. Are they just blowing it up?

 

[slightconfuse]

How dies manning go back. Unless dungy comes out of retirement lol

 

[_woLf]

I would be too chickenshit to take a HC job in Denver. There's going to be so much baggage and high expectations. If your predecessor took the team to the SB and then divisional playoffs, and still was fired (Elway starting a fire sale to me signals that he was fired, not a "mutual parting") then how can you go in expecting stability?

That's insane and not really the best way to handle a franchise. Damn.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I wonder how Rex Ryan feels now.

 

[Bread]

Probably straight into the ground.

i'm ok with this

 

[cdyhybrid]

Free agents are probably all going to leave, and Peyton is probably gone.

Can't see any of them sticking around, I don't think there are any proven coaches out there left for them to get to try and keep things rolling.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Manning's actually going to retire. holy shit

Unless said new head coach is a long time friend and former team mate.......

 

[MRSA]

When's the last time a team won the SB immediately after changing the entire coaching staff? It even took Switzer a year with dream team level talent.

Bucs

This is starting to sound like a decision made in the heat of the moment. Never a good thing.

Broncos confirmed 2-14 next year.

 

[ramuh]

Manning's actually going to retire. holy shit

Do you think he will wait until the Offseason is completely over to announce it if he did?

 

[Tom Penny]

I wonder what this means for Demaryius and Julius Thomas. Are they just blowing it up?

I'm sure they can't wait to sign up for a year of Manning's corpse and not knowing when of if they will get throw the ball by a good QB in the next 2-5 years if ever.

This is really John Elway's Ninja move of secretly wanting Manning to retire...

Such an asshole move, what does Elway expect? That this brand new, piece-meal of mercenary coaches are going to coach Brock into Brady? What FA wants to sign with Denver this offseason, given how shit the culture has quickly become.

Elway should have been the one let go.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

This Broncos stuff is nuts!

 

[Starphoenix]

boom

FINALLY!

 

[Tom Nook]

Damn.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Elway means business.

 

[Starphoenix]

damn! can't wait to see what direction he takes the team.

Wait, Gase is gone too!?!?

#FireFoxandGase came true!!!

 

[jbug617]

Imagine if your Sanders, Talib and Ware. You think you would get multiple chances of going to the Super Bowl and after yr 1 it might be a rebuild.

 

[rando14]

Elway means business.

How business-like can a person be if they're wearing clown shoes?

 

[Quotient]

I know talib went to broncos with the lure of big money, i wonder if he regrets his decision with the pats favored to move to the super bowl.

 

[greatestjediever]

The crazy thing is I think Ware and Talibs contract are structured so that there isn't a big hit if Elway decides to cut them too and completely revamp.

 

[LyleLanley]

Also. I am told Broncos have told all coaches under contract they are free to explore other options but have not been terminated

What?

 

[Bread]

Imagine if your Sanders, Talib and Ware. You think you would get multiple chances of going to the Super Bowl and after yr 1 it might be a rebuild.

If they're rebuilding, I doubt Talib is staying. They made the deal with an out after the first year. Might be the same with Ware.

 

[Dutch Gronk]

The crazy thing is I think Ware and Talibs contract are structured so that there isn't a big hit if Elway decides to cut them too and completely revamp.

He can be Revis his back-up

Talib is smoking L's all day. He don't give a fuck.Not sure about Ware and Sanders.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Come home Talib

 

[MechDX]

What?

Coach/PR speak. Texans staff was told that after last year then BOB brought the hammer down on all but two.

 

[LyleLanley]

If Talib is coming back next year can he bring Demaryius with him?

 

[Draxal]

It happens pretty much every time, you want to go to war with your boys.

Elway not fucking around.

Well that may have given the Pats a backup plan if signing Revis doesn't pan out which I'm not overly confident in.

Nope. But you can follow him on twitter. We are chatting now.

I don't see how they don't sign Revis. Especially with how he changed the defense this year.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

‏@AdamSchefter
Harbaugh and Fox hired in 2011. 90 combined regular season wins. 7 playoff appearances. 2 Super Bowl appearances, both no longer with team.

Good. Fuck both of them.

 

[LyleLanley]

I don't see how they don't sign Revis. Especially with how he changed the defense this year.

I think Revis eventually gets resigned but I could also see him go for more money elsewhere. The Pats still have to pay a bunch of guys over the next two off seasons.

 

[Starphoenix]

I remember him saying that there were reports within Denver that upper management was upset with Fox because there were talks he did not prepare the team for the Super Bowl, and that if he didn't get back there he was as good as gone.

Looking pretty accurate so far.

Oh he Jim Fasseled it? (Fox was the dc of the Giants when Fassel didn't work hard during that Super Bowl against the Ravens).

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I think I read somewhere that he turned down more money from another team to sign with the patriots. Idk though.

 

[Tom Penny]

I don't see how they don't sign Revis. Especially with how he changed the defense this year.

There's only a handful of players they have ever made the highest paid in the game. There will be no discount. That's what it will take. I'd love it but not counting on it.

 

[LyleLanley]

I think I read somewhere that he turned down more money from another team to sign with the patriots. Idk though.

Even if he did, I can't imagine he'd be willing to take another pay cut on what's likely going to be his last big contract. I'll just be happy if we get McCourty back.

 

[Dutch Gronk]

Don't worry guys, McGinest told Revis that this will be his last team
