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. |

Lets be even more honest, if you did not have a vested interest here, you would think it was a bad hire also, just like all of us.

Definitely a reactionary hire. Picked him primarily to combat his main competition, Mahomes. I would have called it a great hire if Elway found a top tier OC but Kubiak isn't shit. Expect a bunch of mediocre seasons with one playoff visit before their both deposed.

Well, you're right , (let's be honest) it probably doesn't matter who you hire as HC Chiefs are going beat the Broncos more often than not next ten years as long as Patrick Mahomes II is upright and our quarterback.

He's better than Vance Joseph but having the 20th, 23rd, and 8th ranked defenses in points allowed before bringing in a top 2 defender in Mack. Not really blowaway.

I would've been impressed if they brought in Kris Richards. I think he's going to be a star.

I don't know enough about him... yes, I would prefer the offensive mastermind route, but they didn't go that way. I was not a fan of Munchak and a few other names, like Pagano. Fangio - total unknown as to what he can do in the role.

Oh, I agree. ALL of their candidates seemed odd. So does forcing Kubes as OC on the new HC. Perhaps that's why all the candidates were head scratchers. Would take a different type of HC to agree to that. Certainly no offensive-minded candidate, with his own system, would agree to it.
