The guy I thought they should have gone after was DeShaun Watson. I mean this year would be a throw away year, but it is now anyway.

But I can understand why they would not have wanted anything to do with Watson.

I was totally onboard with that thought until the 127th woman stepped forward ... at that point, talent be damned, the guy just has too much baggage and is not wired right.

When they fire Can’t Hackett, just imagine the bum who’s next. Nobody is gonna want to coach that shit show. Worst offense and starting quarterback in the league and it’s not close. Adam Gase…. Come on down!!

Last year he ranked 16th and played badly for half the year.

Year before that he was 5th

Year before that, 1st.

Absurd decline.

Throwing away the future of a franchise on a rapidly declining player takes real genius. You can't throw away many years worth of draft picks and salary cap on a player that everyone knows is washed up, you have to see it happening and get in before the bottom falls out. Right now Paton is either whining "it wasn't my fault" to anyone that will listen, or he's sitting in a dim room in front of his computer screen laughing an evil/maniacal laugh saying "they'll all be very very sorry!"

A declining short quarterback who doesn’t throw to the middle of the field, and the book on beating him has been out for years. Bottom third OL they didn’t even attempt to fix, a bunch of busts, and brokedicks at the skill positions. It’s the same team they’ve had for years, but with a much more expensive quarterback who’s still never gonna live up to that contract. It couldn’t have played out any better. We still have years of this comedy act to enjoy!

Edit: the best hire they had was their DC cuz he runs Fangio scheme. But I bet some team hires him away as HC this offseason. Or maybe Dungver fires Can't Hackett and elevates him.

This says it all. I picked them last in the division.

You miscounted, it was 128.

They are rewarding the guy who is actively trying to destroy the franchise from the inside.

And hired a disaster for a HC.

I honestly wonder how much of those two SBs was because of Wilson vs the defense. Was he just a shorter Dilfer or was he actually a reason why they almost won two in a row?

The legs must be the first to go, Henry proving to be an exception(28 and ticking).

He’s not coming back until either the Broncos win a game and he finds an obscure tweet to show that the Broncos are better than they are or if they somehow beat KC or training camp starts.

They’re gonna play their ass off in a couple weeks. Their SNF game against us is their SB

What other choice? How about to actually have an opinion on the trade and Walruss instead of just "we'll see"
