If we can take care of 1 and 2 especially (Manning ownership group and Russell Wilson PLEASE!) I think the other things take care of themselves. The common denominator of all the "good" teams right now is having a great or elite QB and a stable organizational structure that allows for systems and culture to develop. This rest of this season is going to form many offseason decisions, so this list is subject to change!

I was going to post this at 9:20am but before I could call on the strength to type some words, a heavy wave of apathy washed over me. But I still want all the credit, so I'll post this instead.

Remember, his top two WRs were Lloyd and Gaffney FFS. DT and Decker were rookies in Orton’s last season starting. Our offensive line was at an all time low, talent wise (except Clady) and the defense was pretty terrible.

I’d venture to say that Orton would be doing much better right now, on this team, than Bitchwater. I hated Orton as our QB but the dude could throw the football and wasn’t a check down machine. He had shit for mobility and was the “fainting goat” but if I had to choose right now, I take Orton every day all day. He was actually better in a Broncos uni than Bitchwater, Keesum, and Fucco.

I would literally celebrate having Borton right now … to be fair tho, I love Jack Daniels.

Great post, Hawg, as usual.

There we go. A big mistake that will set this franchise back 5 years...

Someone with a 1yr $3.5 mil contract set this franchise back 5 yrs?

I wouldn’t say he set us back other than not knowing if Lock has improved enough to be the long term answer. If Lock had started and sucked (like some here swear would’ve happened based on last year) the. We’d still be right where we are now.

Denver will be fine.

I have ruled out Lock from even starting another game in Denver. His career is shot. He should’ve been the starter, but the turds we have for coaching staff thought a quarterback development is on his own and by staying on the bench. It’s clear Bridgewater was going to be the long term solution, I’m honestly convinced they believed that. That’s why they decided to pass on two 1st round quarterbacks that had literally landed on their laps to be taken and they passed on both of them. Same thing goes with the middle linebacker position; we needed to fill that position more than we needed a cornerback, and we also passed on the favorite to win rookie defensive player of the year in Micah Parsons.
It’s a mess. How long you think it will take for ya to draft a top ten quarterback?

Shurmur has to go. Period.

McMahon (ST’s) must go no matter what.

Fangio, it just depends. I think if the Broncos win 3 of the next 4, and make the playoffs, there is a good chance he’s retained. If not, then he’s probably gone. Also, Paton may consider who’s available before he makes a decision.
If he is retained, then he MUST agree to fire Shurmur. If he refuses, then Fangio gets fired. That’s the way it works.

Hard to tell sometimes, but many of the position coaches are pretty good, and just may be blamed for his boss’s bad schemes. For example, is it Azanni’s (WR coach) fault Shurmur & Teddy won’t throw the ball to Sutton & Jeudy? Same with TE’s coach, etc.
Is it ILB’s coach’s fault that the Broncos FO refusing to spend a high pick on his position?

Coaches that should be retained, although it will be the new HC’s decision, includes:
Munchak/Kuper
Kollar
Modkins
Azzanni. WR’s Maybe?
Herring ILBers Maybe?

I would keep Pagano.

Lock is toast, it’s over.

Lock needs to get out of Denver and refuse to be held hostage while somebody that at the end turned out to be inferior than him is starting games for the Denver Broncos
