So how long before he wants to trade Bradford for New England's current back-up QB

I was wondering how long it was going to take to see this comment

8 minutes on the nose. A little slow, Bman. ; )

In good times and bad times, I'm a Bronco fan. Sucka.

Maybe he’ll want Orton for Bradford straight up LOL

by BGBronco on Jan 18, 2011 4:40 PM MST up reply actions

No, Bradford for Orton!

Because you know, Orton is a “winner”, while Bradford hasn’t had a single winning season in the NFL.

Not to mention how pouty and overly sensitive to criticism Bradford is. ; )

We can move on now. I wonder if Sam Bradford will start throwing whole bunch of screens? And Steven Jackson forgets how to run the ball?

by BGBronco on Jan 18, 2011 4:39 PM MST reply actions

Good move - high probability of success

Everyone who owns Steven Jackson in keeper leagues is pissed

He hasn’t had to talk to th press since being fired, wonder what he will have to say.

McD will probably

trade his first press conference for next year’s second press conference.

I wonder if he'll have any say over personnel

Maybe he can get St. Louis to trade us Steven Jackson and two picks for Brady Quinn. While he’s at it, maybe we can send them Maroni for a fourth round pick. You know, we have Orton and they have that worthless loser named Bradford…. The possibilities are endless!

by BroncoMarc on Jan 18, 2011 4:43 PM MST reply actions

kind of funny, spagnuolo and McD where both finalists for the Denver job last time around, now they are together in SL.

by Bustafluff on Jan 18, 2011 5:51 PM MST up reply actions

This is really a perfect move for all parties involved. The Rams and Sam Bradford get a proven offensive mind to work under, and McD gets the chance to truly build a player and an offense from the ground up with the help of easy divisional opponents. Being able to focus on just coaching will really help him. It will be interesting to see how/if he utilizes the talent they have in their running game and their tight ends.

Half-man, half-bear, and half-pig. I like giving my two cents, but no one ever takes me cereal.

by manbearpig5000000 on Jan 18, 2011 5:07 PM MST reply actions 1 recs

Agreed.

I think he’ll thrive – as will the Rams – and make Bradford all that he can be.

Good luck Josh!

Now, all you McD haters

better keep your lips shut when the Rams take the NFC West and win like 11 games next year. :)

come on guys theres no need to rip on him...

He tried his best and that’s all anyone can ask for. It ain’t his fault ellis and bowlen gave him full power

maxwellsdemon if your reading this i won the bet!!

Agreed.

He was over his head here in Denver. If you just let the guy coach though, I think he will do a great job with St. Louis. Wish him all the best. And I am very glad he isn’t in the AFC West.

What I want to know is why we, as Broncos fans, contnue to rehash the past, and bash each other to death over who was right or wrong?

From Cutler to Hillis to McDaniels, all of our past players/personnel always get updates here on this site, the home for Denver Broncos news and analysis. We just got through hiring a brand new coach, and are currently in the process of putting together a coaching staff to reboot or downtrodden franchise once again.
Is it possible to ask for everyone to let go of those that aren’t here anymore, and focus on what we got now and into the future? I would really like to never see another link to what Cutler is doing, or how Hillis would have done this or that behind our line, or who gave McD his next job.
Anyway, that is just my opinion. I’m trying to back Coach Fox, and his new staff, and look forward to the Draft. I suggest all of us Broncos fans try and do the same.
Thanks, guys.

He's not your buddy, guy!
I'm not your guy, friend!

Bowlen prefers offensive-minded head coaches. He likes offensive minds because he likes his team to have star power at quarterback. He's not a stout-defense/run-the-ball kind of owner. It's a sound, core philosophy. Football franchises are about winning, first, but they're also about entertainment.
(Klis has his days where he's an idiot, but I liked definition of Mr. Bowlen.)

Good luck to him

I’m glad that he’s got a job and can concentrate on coaching an offense. I’m sure he’ll do well.

I’m also glad he’s in the NFC so we don’t have to see him much.

And we just played the Rams too, so not for 4 years.

Rams fans are pretty happy about the move

good luck to him. Hopefully for his sake he learned from his mistakes and uses this opportunity to rebuild his reputation.

Excuse me, do these effectively hide my thunder?

by T.Dot_Bronco on Jan 18, 2011 7:05 PM MST reply actions

I think he'll probably do a fantastic job there

This coming from a guy who was happy to see Josh McDaniels go… Josh McDaniels the head coach kinda sucked, McDaniels the GM sucked even more… Josh McDaniels the QB coach…. that’s the one thing he does a fantastic job of…. Bradford should be the happiest guy out of everyone.
