Blogger's article on the Broncos

Parcells, GM. Nolan, HC. Kubiak, OC. John Fox, DC.

Thats a ton of money. Would make for an interesting story if Nolan does end up back here.

Sounds like the Chiefs..it's working for them

Are the Chiefs on the hook for 3 coaches?

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

Meant get a great GM then bring in 3 head coaches to the team..

A package with Tebow for Andrew Luck sounds like fantasy, but wow would I love it

I thought Luck wasn't going to declare this year and get his degree? (from the other draft thread)

Hopefully Bowlen considers his age and realizes he can spend a little extra to win "now", "now" being 2-3 years with the right staff in place.

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

Tebow will start Sunday vs. Oakland. Not surprising since Orton didn't throw this week.

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

Tebow may be the reason for Bailey to stay here after reading the post-game articles. Bailey said he hopes to be around here since Tebow is a winner and winners don't lose.

Mike Singletary would be an interesting option to consider now since he's been fired. *Not as a head coach

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

What are your thoughts on Tebow's starts. He had some nice stats in the win yesterday but we all know that's a very small sample size. Think he's got some potential?

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

potential for sure
Tebow is having a better pro start than Steve Young.

If they build a good team around him, he wont just have to manage the offense, he is a big-time playmaker.
He looks like a Vick/Alstott/S.Young/B.Jacobs hybrid mix of a quarterback.

Unless he suffers a major injury, I think he wins at least one superbowl in Denver

Im seeing a lot of positive development and progression with his throwing accuracy and reads.

He works so hard to improve that its inevitible for Tim to succeed.

He's definitely got potential. The 2 games he's started, he's done what was asked of him. He made one really terrible decision in the redzone yesterday but its growing pains. The fans showered the team with boos when it hit halftime and Studesville/Mccoy opened the playbook up to see what he can do.

vs San Diego will be a really nice way to end the season to see where he stands. 2 games under his belt and Rivera's defense will test him out. He did get happy feet a few times yesterday but I can understand that when the defensive line is at the handoff by the time the ball is snapped.

If I were to help Tebow on offense through the draft, I would draft a TE thats able to take the short-medium routes with bootlegs. The team really doesn't have that anymore and it'll help to have a safety valve.

As for a head coach, I dont care who it is as long as they dont overpay (may be an issue considering the state of the defense). Just fix the "defense" as its a bigger joke than last year. I will be severely disappointed if the draft isn't heavily favored in the defense.

Whoa whoa whoa...pump the brakes a bit there. He's had two starts, done well. That's about all we know at this point. Predicting super bowl wins?

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

The official Bronco forums is just as bad. The brakes need to be pumped, hard. "Over/Under Tebow has 30 TDs next year"

Tebow will start vs San Diego, as if there was any doubt coming into the regular week that Orton wouldnt get to finish the season.

Ya, I was afraid of this. Here's the deal - if he had sucked it up these first two starts those same people would say you can't draw conclusions, he hasn't had time, etc. Now he does pretty well in those two starts and he's John Elway/Steve Young re-incarnate. Oh well...

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

Awesome news.

And the Broncos are planning to bring back the orange jerseys full time in 2012. (The league has to be notified of a uniform change by March, so it's too late for 2011).

I saw that today and got so excited. I wish the league would let them do it next year.



With regards to Tebow:

I've been impressed but not overwhelmed and I do think there is potential. I will admit that I am glad I'm not the one who has to make the decision on what to do with Orton.

He seemed to look much more comfortable yesterday once McCoy let him get into a rythym. They just need to let him keep passing to see what he can or can't do.

I think the biggest thing with Tebow is going to be having a successful running game. He has shown he can throw fine out of the pocket, but being able to PA is going to be a huge factor in his success.

The only thing that concerns me is it is VERY early. He played two games thus far and based on the game film from his first game, I dont think the already putrid Texans defense was prepared for some of the things they saw from him.

If he is a starter and defenses can prepare for him, I don't think he will look the same way he did yesterday.



I want to see the Broncos trade down regardless of the pick they have. One or two impact players will not be enough to help this defense. They desperately need a MLB who can cover. Their underneath pass defense is dreadful and they have to be able to create more turnovers.



And unrealated, can we create two Bronco threads? One for actual Bronco discussion and another one for people who just want to come and praise Tebow?

Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

I've put a disclaimer in my signature to not get lumped in.

Another season and I still want to try Woodyard at safety. I know its not a plug-n-play transition but with his athleticism, I want to see if it can work.

After reading articles, I'm getting the feeling we'll see Kubiak here. I'll be happy to have him and somehow get Nolan back here whenever Miami blows up its staff
