iLikeDefense Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Broncos expected to make Musgrave full time OC I think this is real interesting, typically new HC will want “their guys”. Is this an indication that VJ stays or are we spending too much money on coaches and it’s a cost saving move to keep him? I didn’t watch many games this year for obvious reasons, how did he fair when he took over play calling duties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Execution looked better with him calling plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncofan Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I think OAK’s struggles showed Musgrave was better than ppl gave him credit for in his years there. I don’t mind at all if he stays because he seems to be a good fit to groom our future guy. But I’m not crazy if this is a main factor in keeping VJ.

I didn’t watch many games this year for obvious reasons, how did he fair when he took over play calling duties? It could be an indication that VJ stays - but remember the assistants were likely Elway's decision not VJ. Musgrave was brought in because the expectation was that McCoy would get another crack at a HC job. There is another possibility - maybe it's an indication that Kubiak comes back as HC - he has been in the building most of the year, would know how Musgrave operates and Dennison isn't coming back to Denver again. I don't think a return for Kubiak could be ruled out. As for 'fires' - hopefully Russell is straight out the door after Joseph. I would also expect Olivo, Davidson and Chryst to be fired.

paul-mac Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Joseph expected to get another crack at it per Adam Schefter. Wouldn’t surprise me if we fire him midseason if we start poorly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFM18 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Rapoport reporting this morning that Joseph not expected to go this offseason and get another chance, but not yet confirmed. Players want him to stay apparently. Doesn't sound like Elway has full confidence in him. Surely if you're mulling a move over a coach you're not sure about you make the move. As for the players wanting him to stay, maybe you should have performed better throughout the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The record isn't concerning the lack of being competitive in games is. That Philly game players gave up you can't have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they like Vance so much why did they fail to show up in so many games? Apparently the effort the players put in against KC yesterday is working in Joseph's favour, but what about games where they didn't show up? Isn't Elway close to JDR? I can imagine he'd be fired up to get right back in the division and stick it to Oakland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine Joseph will get an opportunity with his own QB though. Can't blame him for the poor selection he's had this season. That being said if Elway decides to stay with him I hope he gives him the full season, and not change halfway through. Either move on now or not at all.

IMO, Elway doesn’t know what’s going on and if he fires VJ then his next hire MUST pan out immediately or else Elway will be finished. Retaining VJ keeps the heat off Elway and hopefully slows down the intense win now mentality. QB and OL are HUGH question marks that the best HC can’t magically fix. Thus, the bigger question is QB & OL. I bet Lynch comes back next year, perhaps all 3. We’ll know on draft day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coordinator0 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 What do you guys remember about Don Martindale as the defensive coordinator in 2010? I know the defense wasn't good, but was that on him or other factors? I'm absolutely dreading the Ravens actually regressing from Pees' incompetence, so if there's a silver lining here I would love to hear it. But not expecting it.
