No, let's get real here. McMoron was worse because he was out of control, making really insane personnel moves, much worse than any of Elway's failures.
But, the losing is about the same. 2-8 in their last ten games one year and 4-12 the next. During that terrible stretch the team went 6-20, about the same level of futility as the Browns. Well, right now 1 1/2 years after the SB and the Broncos are currently the 4th worst team in football. They have a better record and later draft pick than the Browns, 49ers, Giants. That's it. Worse than the rest of the NFL:
Round 1 - Updated Nov. 21 - current 7-round order (* - playoff team). The decimal number next to each team is strength of schedule.
1. Cleveland (0-10) .525
2. San Francisco (1-9) .532
3. New York Giants (2-8) .509
4. Denver (3-7) .475
5. Indianapolis (3-7) .484
6. Chicago (3-7) .560
7. Los Angeles Chargers (4-6) .463
8. Cincinnati (4-6) .475
Oakland (4-6) .488
9. Arizona (4-6) .494
10. Cleveland - from Houston (4-6) .509
11. New York Jets (4-6) .516
12. Washington (4-6) .522
13. Miami (4-6) .541
14. Tampa Bay (4-6) .563
15. Dallas (5-5) .475
Notice that Denver has played an easier schedule than Indy, and the Bears, so they pick ahead of them despite having the same # of losses.
That's how bad things are for this team. There is no "reboot" no "we have to fix the offense before the SB window has closed." None of that.
