I don't think Vic is dumb enough to take that Denver job.  It's not good.

When you fire coaches before end of their contract you still pay the contract albiet often minus whatever they make if they take another job.  Still fired HCs don't jump back into HC money usually.

Denver fans say they have cash flow issues.  Ownership isn't going to be down with firing coaches every two years in perpetuity. 

Might be a reason they trade Miller too.  That and they have a young cheaper player in Chubb playing same position and many other needs to fill and not a lot of money to do it.

They have a qb problem and they have shown no ability to solve it.  If you trade Von Miller, its going to have the effect of trading Mack, that defense is getting worse not better,and the Chargers and Chiefs are in that division.  Then you add the fact that John Elway is your boss regardless of what talent he does or doesnt give you.  He has the job as long as he wants bc hes freaking John Elway in Denver. Yeah it's not a good job and wont be until they get Elway out of the big seat.

It is kinda weid when same GM is firing coaches every couple of years.  It's like when is this your fault?

Sou do like they are going with Mike Munchak.  The worst thing to happen to Denver was winning that 2015 SB.  Now John Elway, who has always been known to have a gigantic ego, thinks he is a good GM and is just going to keep driving that team down the drain

Elway should have gone after one of QBs in last draft.  Traded up to get his guy like Bears did.  He was smart to let Brock go to Houston. He got gun shy after missing in first round, but that wasn't dumb, most thought that guy was going to be good.  After miss he played scared.  You have to keep swinging when you are at top of draft and have no QB.  Case Keenum signing for somewhat big money was really a dumb move.

He hasn't  managed cap or contracts situations well at all either.

Well winning a SB isn't worst thing. Is kinda the goal.

Rivers is aging and Chiefs are looking good, but have holes. Raiders may parlay all these picks into something of note in a couple of years.

Raiders had no one good up front so for them losing Mack was drastic. Denver has some good upfront players.

It's the worst thing for Denver bc Elway thinks it was all him, and they are stuck with him for life.

Nah.  He'll try to quit gracefully if he keeps screwing up.  He can cite health or whatever. 

I agree they will never fire him.

Elway isnt walking away for a long time if he ever does, bc he thinks he was the one responsible for the superbowl win, more than anybody else.  He thinks its everybody else's fault they havent been back and that if he can find someone to just not screw it up he will be right back there.

Ironically Chubb may have fallen to Bears had Elway gone after QB like he should have. 

Then Bears don't make the Mack trade and everything is different.

I think Colts take Chubb though.  Would have made Bears choice between Nelson and Smith interesting. 

I think Colts don't make playoffs without Nelson so that worked out well for them even tough pass rusher is ostensibly way more valuable.  Shoring up that OL did wonders for Indy.

By looks of it guy is not aging gracefully. Health issues may actually keep him from working in near future.
