    The Giants had a great team? Uh, no.

    The SB winning 2005-2006 team comes to mind, also. Anyone stoked on the Giants team that got in as a wild card, like the first Giants SB, or that second Steelers team? Anyone stoked about that particular Indy team that beat Chicago?

    No one hates Kubiak but quite a few are happy he won't be OC. His dogged pursuit of Dennison was all the evidence we needed to see he was archaic Kubes, hoping to get the band back together again for one last dive bar tour, as apposed to stepping into the 21rst century of NFL success. I won't say anything else negative. I'm just really happy Elway moved past him. If nothing else, it proves in a huge way that Elway is putting all his cards on the table to keep this team and his employment alive. And at least, we won't have to listen to another year of quotes by apposing defenses saying how they could sleep on the Broncos because they were so vanilla (VGJ there, not Kubes but Kubiak was also one of 'those guys' as an OC.

    Kubiak was present for the SB win. He hadn't been a great OC in quite some time, either. If he wasn't willing to adapt his offense for some college schemes, like many of the top teams are doing right now, and he wanted his former subordinates who didn't do a good job, he has no business here.

    This is a big day for Denver. A good day.

    I've been critical of Elway lately as a GM. Today, I actually applaud the stance he took with Kubiak. My original thought was Elway was screwing up the head coaching search by making Kubiak the defacto OC. Making matters worse, GK wanted to bring in his boys., i.e. Dennison and Pariani.

    A new HC should be able to assemble his own staff. Best news of the day when it was announced DEN was going in another direction. It is also relief that Fangio held to his principles on what type of offensive scheme he wants.

    Maybe Elway really did look into the mirror and reviewed his past actions in regards to this coaching search.

    EDIT:
    Head coaches that make the SB inherit good teams, at worst, and make them 'great'. Otherwise, your link is about Kubes as the OC and QB coach in Denver. IMO, Kubes did what needed to be done by a guy that has been around the block, and knew enough to not trip up himself or his players in 2015. Wade Phillips won SB 2015 (besides Kubiak's QB whispering to Osweiller). Manning as well, but only in that he didn't let his or Kubes incompetence interfere with the brilliance that was Wade Phillips and our D. Kubes' time as OC and QB coach in Denver can mostly be attributed to Mike, true? Mike's system is the one anyone talks about when mentioning Kubes. No one talks of the 'Kubiak Offense' or coaching tree, right? He did a good job. He is maybe the QB savant that he is attributed to being. In fact, he probably is. His worth as a HC is questionable though, outside of Wade/ Manning influence. His worth as an independent OC is proven for one year of brilliance in Baltimore.

    Don't get me wrong. He's a competent play caller. If I had to bet my savings against his ability to read a defense and understand advanced FB concepts, I wouldn't do it. Would I bet against his ability to take what he knows and apply it against the best and brightest the NFL currently has to offer in opposition successfully? Yes, absolutely. I may lose but I think Vegas would make my odds less than attractive, in that they would lean towards Kubes being outplayed and out-coached in the current NFL. He is a derivative of a philosophy that has become so very basic and over played in the league. He is a rep for the vanilla offense that rookies play against in training camp and that we see in pre-season games. He was never even a master or originator of that system. How could we expect him to anything more than that? I would rather have him, than say Musgrave but that's only because Musgrave is even more a derivative than Kubes is. Fangio can better run an offense in the modern NFL as a guy that decimates the best of NFL offenses than Kubiak, IMO. I could be wrong but obviously John Elway agrees. As well as the HC of the Broncos and Godfather, Fangio.

    : )

    Agreed on all points! I'm most happy about Elway's apparent introspection.
