I hope DG learned something tonight

After the Broncos lost the Super Bowl in embarrassing fashion two years ago, Elway went out and immediately made upgrades. Demarcus Ware and Emmanual Sanders were probably the 2nd and 3rd best players on the Broncos tonight. There's a saying that goes "if you aren't getting better in this league, you are getting worse." It was clear tonight how much better this Broncos team was than they were two years ago. Tougher and more athletic on both sides of the ball.

I give DG a pass for having little cap space to work with, but it should be clear as day that this dumpster diving strategy isn't going to win when it matters. The two positions he refused to address - tackle and wide receivers- were the obvious weaknesses that just costed us a Lombardi. 

You now have plenty of cap space and draft picks to work with Dave, time to get better and get this team over the hump

There's nothing to "learn".

Every team in the league has strengths and weaknesses, including the Broncos.  If you think anybody out there has a roster full of all pros, you have no idea what you're talking about.

They built and coached a team that got through the season and the playoffs with only a single loss but came up short in the Super Bowl.  That's a successful season.

Next year, they'll continue building same as they've done before, and the future on that front looks very bright.

I think the point trying to make is a hundred million dollar QB with questionable pieces around him and he his starting his 6th year.

as for Shula, he is here to stay

probably would be better for Newton if a true OC would be brought in...I have always felt that but when the team makes the Super Bowl, coordinators aren't going to be changed

Draft Defense!!  

fug that.  Draft more hog mollies. Actual first round talent hog mollies.  As well as he played all season Remmers got absolutely abused tonight.  Other guys too.  I was pretty fuged up and wasted so Remmers was the only one who consistently stood out as Von Miller's plaything.

The Broncos had the money to get those upgrades. Dave hasn't to this point.

He has certainly been a guy not afraid to make controversial 'splash' moves, so you have to wonder if they look to change it up coaching wise or if another tough round of cuts to favorites (Tolbert comes to mind) is ahead.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
