Dolphins defensive coordinator Vance Joseph has plenty of qualities that make him attractive for head-coaching jobs. One of which is that he’s currently available to be hired.

He may not be available for long. Mike Klis of 9news.com says that he is expecting Broncos G.M. John Elway to offer Joseph the head-coaching job on Wednesday morning.

There’s a sense in some circles that Joseph is being advised by his agents to take as many interviews as possible and, in turn, to generate as much leverage as possible before picking a team. Given that the Chargers also have interest in Joseph, he has a rare opportunity to pit two teams from the same division against each other in the chase for the same coach.

As a practical matter, however, there’s a chance that the point already is moot. The Broncos quite possibly won’t be offering the job to Joseph unless they already know he’ll be accepting it. Otherwise, the Broncos will look bad if/when the Chargers hire Joseph — and Denver’s eventual selection will look like a second choice at best. (The other primary candidates are Chiefs special-teams coordinator Dave Toub and Falcons offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan.)

The Tebownites started it as the reason we got rid of him (Elway was jealous of him) it's idiotic that it's continued to persist past that point.

I was personally steeped in baseball, but I always preferred a manager that was a good motivator and leader. He didnt have to be the best hitting instructor or pitching instructor. Those jobs were for other people. I have to believe the same goes for football. If Joseph is the best leader of the group and has good coordinators and coaches surrounding him, then we'll be in good shape.

It could be and I might have just missed it, I knew they hired a head coach from within.

Not seeing anything to indicate this though, he's still on the market as of right now, he came from Jacksonville to Oakland so I'm not sure why he'd go back to Jacksonville.

ALright, stick with the subject guys. No reason to go onto the personal stuff.

Yea, just heard from someone on FB who is listening to Stinky say that Vance has been told not to leave Denver. I think he is going to be the coach.

Cool by me

Can't make sense of this hiring, especially if this results in Wade going to Oakland.

Yep, I can live with it. McCoy is going to another team from the sounds of it, that's my biggest beef with Joseph (that he's closely tied to McCoy and I don't want that crap back here) So I'll give it a shot. He's not who I wanted to see, but who cares, I don't always get it right anyways.

Hopefully we keep Wade, but if not if we promote the DB coach that will work nicely I believe. Just gotta get someone better than Mike McCoy to run the offense or it's going to be another long season
