We told you it was coming. I certainly wish the thousands of a-holes that have told us what a-holes we were for the last 3 years would come out of the woods and argue their points now.

Shanahan is deffenetly a master mind when it comes to creating offensive schemes. However today Pat Bowlen has shown the Bronco nation that even a master mind must be checked every now and then. I was pissed when he benched Jake, but that wasnt the start of my loathing for the guy. It wasn't even the playoff losses, it was the non playoff contending seasons, the constant rebuilding, we have a young team mentality that started wearing on me, the revolving door defensive coordinator role. After most of my adult life with Shanahan on the sidelines it will be as strange as seeing someone other than #7 at quarterback. However with a few key transactions I think that our defense can be turned around by next year, and hopefully Bowlen can bring in a coach capable of doing so.

Did you guys watch the entire press conferences of Bowlen and Shanny??? I honestly say that I came close to crying during both; especially when Shanny said, "Best owner in the sports." I understand how much you guys hate the guy and wanted him hung when he benched Plummer, but you gotta admit he showed class during his presser. He never blamed anyone for the reason for his firing at that time. I will miss him because he allowed us Broncos fans to at least get a taste of what championship success feels like. He helped John Elway and my boy TD get over the hump and i'm happy that they experienced success also.
I do hope Pat Bowlen makes a very careful decision about our next head coach, because there are so many Nick Saban's/ Cam Cam's out there that cannot help a team win (the rest of my family are Dolphin fans). What we need is a coach that will help us enver Broncos get our D back.

I'm not sure how much Shanahan helped Elway and TD get over the hump. You have to look at teams like the Lakers who ALREADY had KOBE AND SHAQ and various others years before Phil Jackson showed up. They couldn't win anything, kept gettting blown out of the playoffs by the Jazz, etc. Then a coach like PHIL came in and BOOM, no problem they won. He HELPED them get over the hump. It's not like ELWAY and TD together were trying to get over the hump. I personally believe I could have coached Elway, MCCAFFREY, SMITH, Sharpe and Davis to the bowl those two years in a row. And barring injury a 3rd bowl. In addition, I don't think any of these coaches are going to do better for a while. Shanny ruined too much! As much as we've said it, and God rest his soul, as much as Darrent Williams said it in 2005...after Shanny benched Jake in the middle of a playoff run, the TEAM lost TOTAL confidence in the coach. You don't make those types of decisions, so unfortunately I lost all respsect for Shanny that day and nothing he did or said at the press conference made me feel any different for him. He's a total TOOL for ruining one of the best franchises in sports history! And unless Phil Jackson agrees to coach the Broncos via the phone and internet, in which case the Broncos win next year, I believe we're in for years of this crap.

Glad Shanahans Gone !!! I still Believe CULTLER is Trash .. hes Garbage I stopped watching the bronco's since Cutler's been leading ... the whole Cutler's a rookie heyll mature COVER-UP that was BS... Cutler had a good Season 08 but hes still TRASH, Iv lived in Denver my whole life and havent been a fan of the broncos since Cutler's been QB- I dont know about you people but IM BOYCOTTING CUTLER and subsequently THE BRONCOS...
Now if theyd pull their heads out and get PLUMMER back and make Cutler ride the bench, it would be the REEVES-ELWAY SCANDAL ALL OVER , Id be Happy to watch Jake the Snake until then IM BOYCOTTING CUTLER and the BRONCO's
an X genuine bronco fan Bennie PS maybe if WE ALL got organized and had OUR VOICES HEARD maybe we can get Plum-dog back
