    I don't think he will. The point I was making saying he's fox without the loser mentality is that Fox was a good coach. He turned this team around, but he plays not to lose, which is often playing not to win. Good ole Fox Ball... I don't think Fangio has that same mentality and so he's a good coach with the right attitude to develop a winning team going forward.

    Well, sure, over the course of two seasons.

    Are we talking 18 or 20 game seasons?

    Mike Evans: "Well for the first 6 days the defense has kicked the offense's butts. It's not a good look so far." It's still early but the defense crushing Denver's offense. They need to get it together for the first pre-season game. I'd like to see Flacco actually connect some throws and the WRs (other than Sanders) not drop about every pass

    Default Broncos Day 7 Camp report: Offense gets into rhythm

    ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- In the first six days of practice, the offense seemed to be out of sync.

    Sometimes, a frenetic pass rush discombobulated the offense. At others -- particularly in Monday's practice -- the wounds were self-inflicted; that session was marred by drops and bad routes.

    Thursday's practice was not perfect for the offense. But with an emphasis on controlled, short-to-intermediate passes to running backs and tight ends and quick slants to the wide receivers, the offense finally got into a rhythm it rarely located during the first week of training camp.

    At one point, Flacco targeted running backs or tight ends on five consecutive plays. That paid dividends.

    I doubt they would just cut him and he has no trade value. Just put him on IR. Then if he's healthy after week 6 you can bring him back. If not he can sit another season. He's under contract for another season next year so if he's not healthy at that point, he can get cut with no salary cap hit.

    Nice story about Coach Fangio, his daughter, and training camp.

    A day before Vic Fangio started his first training camp as the head coach of the Denver Broncos, he guided his car down a street near UCHealth Training Center as his daughter posed a question.Cassie Fangio wanted to know how her 60-year-old father was feeling. After 32 years as an NFL assistant, he was about to begin his first season as a head coach.

    “Are you nervous?” his 22-year-old daughter asked him.

    He quickly waved her off. No, he said.

    But Cassie, who grew up around the NFL and has spent the start of training camp with her dad and the Broncos, can’t say the same.

    “Oh, yeah,” she says after a recent Broncos training camp practice. “I’m very nervous to see what my dad is going to be like on TV and just in charge of the game on the sideline. It’s going to be a change for sure, but I’m excited.”

    It’s been a long time coming for both Vic and Cassie. Fangio spent 32 years as an NFL assistant or coordinator before he got the opportunity earlier this year, and he had come to terms with the fact that he might never be destined to earn the top spot.

    “It’s obviously something I’ve thought about throughout my career at various times, but I was comfortable enough in my own skin that it didn’t have to happen,” Fangio said at his introductory press conference in January. “I was happy with being a defensive coordinator in the NFL for close to 20 years. If a good situation ever arose and I matched what a certain team was looking for, I’d be all in. I believe I’ve found that here and I’m all in.”

    Before he accepted the Denver job earlier this year, though, Cassie wasn’t sure if she would see her dad take the next step in his career.

    “I mean, he’s not the youngest guy around," Cassie says jokingly, "so you kind of thought maybe it would never happen."

    When it did, his daughter’s reaction was reflective of the work he’s put in during four decades of coaching football at all levels.

    “When I first found out, I was pretty much in tears,” Cassie says. “This is what he’s worked for and it’s what my family and I have always wanted for him. He deserves it so much. I see how hard he works outside of the office. He’s the last one to leave every night. He deserves it, and I hope he enjoys it because I know it’s going to be stressful, too. But I hope he enjoys it.”

    As he starts his head coaching career, it’s clear he’s enjoying the moments he can spend with his daughter before she heads to Texas for her first job out of college. When the Broncos aren’t on the field for practice, the future U.S. Army nurse and her dad are nearly inseparable.

    In the morning Vic and Cassie eat breakfast together. During practice, she stands on the sideline and watches as her father directs some of his first training camp practices. They grab a quick lunch when the morning’s practice wraps up, and she’s around to talk when her dad gets home after a long night at the office.

    Then why didn't the previous HC win a title?

    “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.”
