Broncos hire Vic Fangio as head coach
https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...as-head-coach/
Apologies folks, looks like our crack news team got this in the donk megathread. Well, maybe this is worthy of it's own thread? The Broncos have their new head coach, and the Bears need a new defensive coordinator. Vic Fangio has been hired as the Broncos’ next head coach, ESPN reports. Fangio has been the Bears’ defensive coordinator for the last four seasons and was the 49ers’ defensive coordinator for four seasons before that. He’s previously been a defensive coordinator with the Panthers, Colts and Texans. He has a good reputation as a defensive coach. There was some talk, however, that he might not be a strong candidate for a head coach, as he hasn’t been one before and, at age 60, he could have faced some age discrimination in a league where younger head coaches seem to be all the rage. Fangio beat out Mike Munchak for the top job in Denver. Now he’ll take over a Broncos team that has had back-to-back disappointing seasons. And the Bears will hope they can find a coordinator who can be as effective in Chicago as Fangio was. |

Agreed and thanks for reporting. Homosexuals deserve better than to be denigrated by someone using the “f” word. Please spell your vile and childish insult correctly so it can be more respectfully translated to “pillowbiter”. Common decency.

Hey, it worked when we dumped Hootie right before the 2015 MLB playoffs. We need a sacrificial virgin.

Elway continues to compete for Worst GM Over The Last 5 Years.
This is a ridiculous hire, IMO. Maybe he's trying to make Von feel better about the future. FAX |

I need to do some research on this to find ways to ridicule him. Right now, all I've got is, "How stupid do you have to be to accept a job with John Elway?"
Though honestly, that's a pretty good start.

Fangio is a really great defensive mind...not sure it will work out at HC, but he turned the Niners D around in 1 season...Bears have looked very promising as well under his tutelage.

7 of the 8 remaining playoff head coaches are former offensive coordinators. Only Bill Belichick is a former DC.
Of those 7, only Sean McVay was never an NFL QB coach. |

The league is cyclical... things will come back around when defense rules the day and by golly, Denver will be ready.
