It might be more realistic that you'd think.
Lets say Fangio is fired at the end of the year.
The Broncos go looking for an offensive minded guy who is experienced at QB development...the opposite of Fangio.
Brian Daboll of the Bills.
He bring Mitch with him as Mitch will already know the offense having spent this season in Buffalo with Daboll. Mitch is a FA at the end of the year.
Paton and Daboll would be all about drafting your next QBOTF but bring in Teabiscuit until whoever the new guy is, is ready.
Something to think about.
