Orange Mane is hilarious. These dipshits are so entitled it STILL hasn't hit them that the emperor has no clothes.

Apologies for this wall of text, but I have to get this off of my chest:

If I read his quote correctly, Elway feels better about this season than last season because he feels the team is more competitive. WTF has happened to John Elway? 3-6 is acceptable in his measure? What happened to his philosophy of “not only building a team to win, but building a team to win for now on?”

It’s okay to admit when you are wrong. I was wrong when I disagreed with Pat Bowlen’s decision to hire John Elway as GM. Elway was instrumental in making the Broncos Super Bowl 50 champions. He was instrumental in luring Manning and the free agents that helped win that game. Boy, was I happy to be wrong.

I just don’t see the passion and drive in Elway that he had back then. It was kind of a win at all costs type attitude. Now it seems more like settling for sub-mediocrity is okay with him as long as the scores are close. The old John Elway would have canned VJ during the bye week to send a message that losing is not tolerated. I think like many fans, I’m frustrated that John Elway appears to either have given up or just doesn’t know what to do. Either way, it’s not good.

he is just playing passive and keeping the thing going until Radio is canned assuming Elway's guy is open for hire.

he cannot just wing it he has to show patience or nobody will want to come here. he is trying, imho, to repair his image a bit plus bring a little stability to a team that is in a tough ownership position.

stay the course, he will turn it around. guys don't just lose it all of the sudden.

This doesnt really bother me and heres why:

Flacco is better than Case.

With Case or a rookie qb, we werent doing anything next season anyway, so salary cap really doesnt matter. What free agents were going to come to Denver that would have put us over the top?

So we are paying a little more money but we have a chance at the playoffs now. It probably wasnt happening with Case. In no way are we contenders, but it makes the season a lottle more interesting.
