Mike Brown/Duke Tobin Vs. John Elway
#13
(01-04-2021, 08:50 PM)Wes Mantooth Wrote: For those that don't know, John Elway stepped down as General Manager today.  After 4 straight losing seasons he's stepping aside and letting a new GM take over.  Here's how the team describes the GM's new role: “...with full authority to oversee the personnel and football department"

Fwiw, Elway will remain on staff as Present of Football Operations, and will hire the new GM.

I guess this isn't shocking.  The Broncos have been pretty bad as of late.  They've won 5 games in 2017, 6 games in 2018, 7 games in 2019, and 5 games in 2020.  That's an average of just 5.75 wins per season

Well, here are our win totals over that same span:  7, 6, 2 and 4.  For an average of 4.75 wins a season.

Here's Elways entire body of work as GM (I'll let you compare it to ours, rather than type it all out)

2011 - 8-8
2012 - 13-3
2013 - 13-3 (Lost in Superbowl)
2014 - 12-4
2015 - 12-4 (Won Supebowl)
2016 - 9-7
2017 - 5-11
2018 - 6-10
2019 - 7-9
2020 - 5-11

Overall Record - 90-70 (+6-4 in Postseason)

So this guy, with this resume, decides to step down after 10 years.  Meanwhile, we have Mike Brown with 30 years on the job, and Duke Tobin with 22 years on the job, staying put.

You make all the changes you want to personnel and position coaches, and really anything else.  Until we make changes to the front office, and hold ourselves to the same standards set around the league, we'll never sniff real success.

Sweet deal for Elway, he gets promoted (hiring and overseeing football operations) and gets someone to do his job. He failed and got promoted, sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Free Agency ain't over until it is over.
