    Apparently, he told his agent to talk to the Broncos and tell them that he would take less than his on the table offer from the Chargers. Their exact response to his agent was "there's no contract for him here." That came directly from him. Not me.

    They were excited about getting Donald Stephenson. They believed he would be great because of what he had done in KC, which didn't appear likely to anybody else, including the Chiefs who let him walk rather than trying to re-sign him. But, the Broncos were sure they had signed an undervalued player! A real bargain!

    And he sucked. Perfect example of valuing other team's players over your own.

    So they said that's what Broncos told them? That doesn't make it accurate Cug.

    “When we do find that guy, we’ve got to have the continuity on the offensive side to where we can train him and develop him and get him there. This is our fourth offense in probably three or four years. Quarterbacks need to be developed. You don’t find one ready-made. We got to have a solid system in place for when we do go after whatever guy it may be, a young guy or a trade or whatnot.”

    To be fair, Mack supposedly got injured in the game and played through it. I know he missed the next few games.

    Orlando Franklin spent about 20 minutes on the radio talking about his contract negotiations for the Broncos. I wasn't there talking to his agent. That's what he said.

    He's been retired for a while now, and there's no reason for him to lie about it now that he's a sports talk show host.

    Well that's one side to story but that doesn't make it gospel truth because it's still only one side of the story.

    Well, they certainly did sign Donald Stephenson, and what Orlando says they said to him is what they did say when they signed Stephenson. They thought they had gotten a steal. They thought the Chiefs undervalued Stephenson.

    Turns out the Chiefs knew what they were doing in getting rid of him, because Stephenson took his salary and then retired but didn't tell anybody.

    Say whatever you want about him as a postseason coach, but Andy Reid is one of the top n evaluators in the league. People like guys like John Dorsey. While Andy Reid is the guy that evaluates all those people. One thing I learned when I lived in Philadelphia was it if Andy Reid let somebody walk then you're best off letting that guy not be on your team.

    That's what the Broncos learned. Stephenson wasn't so much washed up though as over achieving.

    Elway keeps doing this though, he did it with Case Keenum.

    There were two schools of thought about Keenum. One, he'd achieved a "break-through season" and now he was going to play at the high level he did in MN. Two, he had a career season, and would revert to the norm.

    We know which one Elway believed and which one was right.
