Yeah I’ve got a feeling the new owners clean house during the offseason. Of course they’ll still be stuck with the elephant in the room. In all honesty that team is so injured I don’t know if anyone could make it work there this season. He’s playing with an OL that’s worse than the one we had in the Brady bowl. They’ve lost lots of receivers, RBs. But even with all that said, EmbaRuss is pathetic and obviously done. That city was so happy to get him, and welcomed him with open arms, even despite him being super cringe. And he’s gonna leave that city as the biggest failure, and a villain. Couldn’t have asked for a better outcome! Well done Pay a Ton!!
Pete Carroll has to be in consideration as a first ballot hall of fame coach for what he was able to get out of Mr. Unlimited. It truly is remarkable. [Reply]

Hell, I’d add him to the KC ring of honor. Fleecing Dungver like he did seems worthy! [Reply]
You fire Paton...not Can't Hackett. Wilson has singlehandedly cost Denver more wins than any player in the league. That's on the GM to not see the decline many of us even saw.
Then the new failure of a GM can pick another loser coach. [Reply]
It has been 6 years since Super Bowl 50 when Hell accepted the Bronco's offer to sacrifice the souls of the fanbase for the victory. We now face the Panthers for the 3rd time since that fateful day and we're both utterly miserable, a far cry from our former glory. I'm just tired.
It's looking so bad for the Donks right now that I don't really know what possible material Knowmo can drum up when he comes back from his nephew's birthday party that lasted from November until March.
Maybe Russ will post something on IG or talk to the media about how he "Looked at the film, did the work, examined the details..." and now he knows how to fix his issues. Russ will probably go to a secret bunker with 5-head and some throwing coach and stay there for a month and come out of it proclaiming to be a brand new player. The Donk media will take that cheese and write about how Russ is "talking differently... looking like he has more energy... exuding more confidence than he ever has... getting everybody to buy in and go on a mission this year..." when OTAs roll around.
But that's the problem. That's about the only move he has for next year. What else is he supposed to say? "The defense is totally ferocious!" "Random midround 1st/2nd year player is a future all-pro!" I mean, yeah, those are the old classics, and he'll probably keep churning those out, but those cards were always played when he had the benefit of a brand new solution at QB every single year. Russ is a carry-over who will be here every season. There aren't any magical pipedreams that Knowmo can spin because he can point to something and go, "It's different, therefore it will be better."

If they fire Hackett then he can take all of the blame, and the new guy will be the one with all the answers. It's the rinse-repeat cycle they'll be on for the next half a decade. [Reply]
