I like this addition. I think with fangio and Donatell our defense is going to be much improved.

Maybe...I get the vibe that Elway realizes he has to build Parthenon in a day, so if Skankdaddy ain't a master builder, we gotta find one...

I don't think Elway feels the same crushing pressure fans thinks he does. He wants to win, that's clear, but the Broncos have dominated the AFC West since he took over.

I think the Chiefs just won their second, possibly third playoff game in the last 25 years. The Raiders have been rebuilding for 15 years and have one good season to show, and that's now what two or three years ago? The Chargers have been better overall, but not much.

Under Elway, the Broncos have four or five division crowns. Six or so playoff wins. Two Super Bowl appearances and one Super Bowl win. Between the Super Bowl loss, with one of the best offenses in NFL history, Elway retooled the team and created one of the best defenses in NFL history, and they won a Super Bowl with that defense. Yes, he's had back to back losing seasons, but after arguably one of the best starts to an NFL GM career ever.

I'm pretty happy with everything so far. As long as we Address CB and ILB with very good players we should be a formidable defense again.

Yea, I think we could use some help there, especially at CB. We could probably get by with the ILBs, although an upgrade would be nice, but we really need another stud CB for the outside, since our best CB regularly moves inside to cover slot receivers.

Reports I've heard is we really like him. Unless he said something in the interview that was a major red flag or we said something that turned him away, he's our OC. (I haven't heard it announced yet, unless I missed it, but it'll be coming.)

Glad to see you coming around Dog, I was beginning to think someone was going to have to talk you off a ledge. :D

Basically Vic Fangio is his own DC so the most important post is the OC position. Fangio will be running the defense himself pretty much. The DC will be up in the booth relaying info to him on the field.

He is going to be a FA. Just hope he does not get a tag.

Nah, I disagree. I think he genuinely feels a sense of urgency--but that's probably how he's felt the whole time. Look, I got confidence in the guy, especially after the P King interview. I like honest assessments that are hardly self-congratulatory from individuals in possession of a compelling body of work who aren't satisfied with being #2.

Let's ride!

Yea, I've been beating the table for him over on the official boards. Hard to believe they let him leave though.

It sounds likely they let Suggs and Weddle walk.

I would not want Suggs 36 years I don't see how he would be helpful when we have young pass rushers to develop.

I don't think he was suggesting him for us, simplying saying that he's a free agent that the Ravens have to account for when attempting to re-sign Mosley. Mosley will take priority over Suggs since thy are reported to be leaning towards letting him walk.
