NFL: Broncos to hire Vic Fangio as HC

[generalshepherd141]

Are Broncos sticking with Keenum at QB or will they be looking to upgrade?

They should be looking to upgrade. Keenum is backup-caliber, but not a starter.

Upgrading will be hard with a mediocre QB class in the draft and the top free agent QB being?....Joe Flacco?

Yeah Denver wants Herbert but will have to wait a year.

Good news for Kubiak is he has a pair of good young RB's in Lindsay/Freeman to utilize next year

not the worst hire thus far. Have to see how it pans out.

 

[Reality Check]

Seems to be Fangio was pretty desperate for any HC job. Not that I blame him as I think he has earned a shot.

But with Elway in control(much less, giving him authority to pick YOUR staff) no longer looks like a good idea. Throw in the Chargers and Chiefs in your division and he'll last as long as Vance Joseph.

I guess Kubiak can handle a coordinator job with his health issues, God bless him.

As for the hiring, I feel like "older defensive coach who has been around the league" is the hiring that generally works out the worst. Gary Kubiak is probably back coaching this team by the end of 2020.

Didn't need to wait until 2020 for this one to be wrong.

I'm shocked Golden Child #2 Kubiak wasn't able to come to an agreement with Golden Child #1 Elway.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

They are interviewing Rich Scangarello who is the 49ers QB coach.

Kind of banking on being bad enough to get him, doesn't seem like Elway's style.

This never made sense at any rate. The guy won a Super Bowl as a head coach just 3 years ago. Why the hell would he want to be offensive coordinator?

I think he'd like to coach but his family doesn't want him to be a HC again because of the health scare he had. The thinking might be he could be an OC, which may not be as stressful of a job.

Donny becomes latest coaching loss for Bears the 2nd to head to Denver

Far too much change over and something to be worried about as Pagano brings in his own people
