K Jackson used to be able to tackle in open field, but today he's been sucking big time. Can't blame the defense though. They've been out there all day. Our offense is just otherworldly bad.
Yep, Hackett and Wilson need to shot to the f***ing moon. They f***ing suck.

Wilson will go down as the worst trade in NFL history. He's washed and clearly doesn't give two flying f***s about even remotely trying to learn a playbook.

It's pathetic how far the Broncos have fallen they are not salvageable. It will be 15 years before they become relevant again. There is no climbing out of the hole they've dug themselves.

It's so easy to blame Russ but there's literally no run game and he's running for his life on every play because the OL is garbage. Only so much a QB can do when every 3rd down is long.

With all the injuries I'm feeling more certain they may run it back next year with some changes. Next man up and all but it's a lot of 2nd and 3rd stringers out there playing competitive ball. Not good enough but they aren't getting blown up and once again the game is there for them at the end if they could just execute.

If Paton concludes that it was injuries that did the Broncos in, that'll definitely mean another season of Hackett.
Very much could be a reality, which sucks. It's not injuries that are causing the problems. It doesn't help but it's far from the main issues.

The only saving grace is that I can't see the new owners who just shelled out 4.65B and another 250M for Russ liking what they are seeing.

If I was the new owners I'd start fresh my guys. Meaning everyone is shown the door. Starting with Paton, then Hackett, the dead weight vets like Simmons and Sutton, all the way down to the strength and conditioning coaches. The only coach you even consider keeping is Evero as he is a stud. I'd even consider him as a head coach replacement just so you don't lose him.

Then there is the Russ problem, I don't know how but you have to get rid of him, the guy is awful and dragging the team down with him. He is an arrogant me first player who gives 2 f***s about his teammates or learning a playbook. I mean honestly what kind of player needs to tell the media how hard they are working out? The ones who aren't actually doing anything and are trying to convince/give the appearance to people they are. He's a bum who is more interested in celeb status than football at this point in his career.

Once you've cleaned house completely and gotten rid of the stank, go from there. Build the team the way they want it not how they inherited it.

I’d keep Ejiro Evero and everyone under him. The defense is the one thing working well under Hackett’s staff, so don’t mess with that. But everyone else? GTFO.

Pretty much. I'd promote Evero right now to head coach and he can figure out which of his assistants he wants promote to DC.

I hope they don't f*** this up with Evero he is a rising star and you can't let those guys go.

I'm willing to give Russ the benefit of the doubt. I'm not saying he's playing well or anything but the O-Line sucks balls. As far as the playbook goes, I'm not so sure it's Russ not wanting to 'learn it' but what if it's just too frikkin' complex??

I mean what kind of idiot coach decides that HIS playbook is the greatest thing on earth regardless if he's got the right guy to execute it or not? What kind of jackass doesn't adapt to the strengths of his QB? I wouldn't put it past a moron who not-so-cleverly hired NO ONE with more than 1-2 years of experience just so there would be no one with a ton of experience to actually challenge him on anything; to continually try to fit a square peg in a round hole.

Even though it means giving Seattle a better pick, I prefer if we keep losing rather than squeak by with a few victories just enough so that people aren't so sure if things aren't coming around and Year 2 could be better. It won't. It's obvious. Hackett is a stooge - he had 2 weeks to prepare for the Titans and that atrocious horseshit of a mess is the best he could come up with and it looks no different than it did at the beginning of the season.

Just the fact that he kept playing Fumble Gordon the Turd after he just about fumbled AGAIN on his very first carry of the game is so much more than enough for me to easily conclude that he's just a complete imbecile. The fact that Gordon the Turd, pouted on the sidelines a few games ago actually WORKED and got him more chances at even touching the ball is mind-boggling. He didn't even play that badly but imagine if we as fans cringe and hold our breath every time he's handed the ball, imagine how the rest of the team must feel. :laugh: What a goddam shit-show,

Pretty much. I'd promote Evero right now to head coach and he can figure out which of his assistants he wants promote to DC.

I hope they don't f*** this up with Evero he is a rising star and you can't let those guys go.
If they don't, someone is likely coming to poach him in the off-season.

That ain’t happening.

Paton would be gambling his career on that move which in that case might not be a full season. Hack’s made enough boneheaded play calling errors to prove he’s part of the problem.

Just face it, Seattle fleeced us big time. Yes, the O-line is garbage, and the injuries don't help, but even when Russ does get good protection, and even when we were at full-ish strength, he didn't come through. He misses wide open receivers, he doesn't make reads, and he holds the ball for like 8 seconds before dumping it to the RB that has no where to go. His ability to avoid the sack, that he had all those years in Seattle, is gone. And to top it off, he is corny as f***! Shut the hell up with this "Let's Ride!" BS! Ride your corny ass back to Seattle and give us our picks back!

I can't believe we fell for this. You don't trade your franchise QB unless something is wrong with him! Even if he wants out, you do everything in your power to try and keep him, like Green Bay did with Rodgers. If Russ and Pete Carroll have beef, you get rid of Carroll because the franchise QB is king, always. Unless they know he's washed, which they did.
