NFL 2014

I would have liked Kubiak to hold out a little longer with Baltimore. Guessing Studesville gets another interview... not sure who else. Would have LOVED Rex Ryan.

It's going to be weird. Fox out, Gase likely gone to the Niners with Del Rio to the Raiders...

[Nevermore]

Damn, that didn't take long.

And Bill hire Rex Ryan.

I wonder which QB he will go about destroying next - EJ Manuel, Kyle Orton or someone altogether new.

Orton retired and Manual comes pre-destroyed.

[sickrubik]

NEW INFO: Entire Broncos coaching staff let go. Not just John Fox. All assistants gone according to several players.

[HaemishM]

I forgot Orton retired. I guess Bills fans can look forward to lots of 10-7 games.

Holy shit, if that's true, that's a MAJOR house cleaning. Quite possibly a really bad idea as well.

Thought Orton retired already?

[sickrubik]

I would have still thought Fox being gone increased Manning's return, but I wonder if this is a "FUCK IT, REBUILD" move and Manning and Broncos part ways.

[Chimpy]

Orton already retired.

[sickrubik]

Hey guys, does anyone know if Orton retired? 

[Rasix]

It's just a rumor.  Can someone please confirm?

[sickrubik]

Also. I am told Broncos have told all coaches under contract they are free to explore other options but have not been terminated


Broncos players seem stunned.

[Paelos]

Guess what Broncos players, when you fuck up this publically twice in a row under the biggest lights, shit hits the fan.

Oddly the one team that seems to have a lot of patience is the Bengals, but that might be laziness.

[Tannhauser]

Wow.  Pretty major.  I wonder what coaches are out there that Bronco front office thinks can replace the whole staff?

I really hope Peyton stays another year.  Maybe give him a running game so he doesn't have to throw 40+ times a game and is spent by the playoffs.  But if this is a 'rebuilding' year, I don't know if he wants to stick around.

Peyton is done. They are going to have to rebuild. Might as well do it with a staff handpicked by the current management.

Seriously, Peyton picked the Broncos originally because they were the most 'ready to go' team. Seems that is out the window and I doubt he'll come back for a lackluster year in which they may not make the playoffs

[Nevermore]

He's still chasing Favre for most total passing yards, though.

I hear the Shannahans are available.

[sickrubik]

And Shanahan likes Manning. He judges all QBs by Manning. (Seriously.)

And Elway likes Shanahan. It's not completely out of the question for the Rat King to make his return.

Careful... you might get stuck with Shanahan the Lesser. 

[sickrubik]

The reports are crazy, of course...

So far, the reports have been: Shannahan, Gase, Kubiak and Dan Quinn.

I don't think we can stay in a race for Gase if the Niners are REALLY taht interested... and Kubiak already committed to Balitmore.

I think Qiunn could be interesting (and hilarious), but again, I'm not sure we have the bucks to chase that horse either.

Why not both? Another chance for Mike to turn over to Kyle at retirement since Washington didn't work out so well.

[HaemishM]

Fixed that for you. Mike Brown is a notorious skinflint.

I hear that Marc Trestman is available

[MrHat]

Would have LOVED Rex Ryan.

Wonder if he's pissed. I would've loved Rex in Denver too.  That defense.

There was a report that John Fox leaked his own bullshit last Sunday morning and everyone on the Broncos found out which is why they were playing all meh.

They've been playing without any passion the whole year.  The coaching staff has to change.   Lots has to change. 

[Paelos]

I would have loved Rex Ryan in Atlanta. Every day that passes it's more likely that the Falcons end up hiring McDaniels.

I hope now that they take Todd Bowles. He's our last hope at a good defensive coach.

[HaemishM]

Josh McDaniels in Atlanta would be HILARIOUS. With that offensive line, Matt Ryan wouldn't last 6 games without tearing an everything.

ESPN saying that's not true, everything was normal the day after, then BAM.

[sickrubik]

Jay Glazer reported before the game that Foxy could be out. Glazer's reporting on Denver has been very good. Glazer and John Fox are good friends.

Everything out of the Denver press this year has been "this could be it if we don't make it". It was a shock outwardly, but there was plenty of smoke.

[Paelos]

I have to write about this shit factory, so I hope it's not true. But if it is true, I will absolutely skewer them every chance I get in every piece I write about how they keep shaking the Belichick dumbass assistant/GM tree.

[El Gallo]

Peyton to Buffalo.  Great defense, decent offense except for a gaping hole at QB, fanbase that is accustomed to post-season failure.

[HaemishM]

I'm almost positive Peyton will take one look at Buffalo's frigid temperatures and be like "FUCK THAT." He'd sooner go to the Jets than the Bills, IMO.

[Cyrrex]

Yep.  Unless I am wrong, I think cold weather Peyton struggles just as much as Playoffs Peyton.  And with his arm literally disintegrating before our eyes, there is no way.

I think he will retire before going anywhere else.

[Trippy]

I hear Arizona needs a QB.

[Rasix]

We already made down payments on Carson Palmer's knee.

[Tannhauser]

I can see AZ.  He'll only go to a playoff ready team.
