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.

      And really, it should be 4 reasons with the last one being that there were ZERO other offensive weapons on that team in 2024, opposing defenses only had to worry about one player all year long and they constantly double and triple teamed him right off the snap all season.  In 2023, we still had Jacob Cowing who had 90 catches that year and was drafted by the 49ers last year, so teams couldn't just send everyone after T-Mac on every passing down.

      I wonder if the Hornets view Kon and McNeeley more as forwards and plan to ship off Green/Okogie/Smith for center help. I hope they don’t plan to ship off Sexton as I like what he brings to the team. (2) G - Ball, Mann, Simpson (two-way) (3) G - Sexton, Dinwiddie, Connaughton (3) F - Miller, Knueppel, McNeeley, James (two-way) (3) F - Bridges, Williams, Salaun (3) C - Diabate, Kalkbrenner, Plumlee

      3 main reasons he was better in 2023 and none of them concern me for his NFL prospects 1. Totally new coaching staff that was a massive downgrade and had god awful play calling and designs, the entire fan base was ready to run the coaching staff out of town a month into their first season and the play caller ended up getting changed because it was so bad. 2. Along with the staff downgrade, his QB played significantly worse after being the Pac 12 Freshman of the Year in 2023.  Constantly missed T-Mac when he was wide open, lost out on a number of TDs and a good amount of yardage, half the time T-Mac still almost made miraculous catches on the bad passes too. 3. He hurt his ankle over the summer and missed all of fall camp only to return to practice a few days before the season started and I think he had to deal with it all season long and was slightly limping at times mid season too, but kept fighting through it to still be a 1st team All American.
