I would be willing to place a wager on that.
The fact is that all three of those guys took the job despite the bottom-tier salary
and the completely dysfunctional ownership situation.
Neither of those things are factors this time around.
That said, it's now complicated by a completely messed-up QB situation that isn't going to change anytime in at least the next 2-3 years.
Still, I'd be willing to bet they get one of the 'marquee" available coaches - for whatever that is worth. The ownership situation changes everything. You guys made fun of QJ for posting the thing about the new field. But as a Broncos fan, that little news blip was music to my ears. It's a perfect representation about how everything has changed. Since Pat Bowlen stepped away, you have had ownership and management whose interests were, at best, conflicted. What's worse, you had a bunch of guys in charge who had limited resources to actually do anything. Now, you have the ear of the wealthiest ownership situation in the league.
Will that, by itself, make the Broncos great again? No. But it removes an obstacle that has basically been a non-starter for success. It's hard enough, under the best of circumstances, to catch lightning in a bottle in the NFL, as it pertains to building a champion. When the bottle you're using has a cork, "difficult" basically becomes synonymous with "impossible."
