Default Time to clean house-Ownership needs to take action

I have tried to be positive up to this point, but it is time for a change. To see the Dolphins and Falcons make coaching changes and get results just reinforces the point. Bowlen needs to step up and bite the bullet. The team is a ****ing joke!

Atlanta had the pieces in place, they just had to work out the lunacy at QB.

Unless we can get Parcells, it's not going to do much good. Miami is a product of the best football man in the world. He has such an incredible eye for talent (overlooked talent at that).

You know, for quite a few years I've said "who you gonna get to replace Shanny?" But hell...how about Cowher? I've lost confidence in the CEO now that he's replaced everyone from top to bottom. Time for change.

I'm sick of this team bending over when the game is on the line. Lucky to win the Charger and Saints game because of the ref and the kicker. Not to mention what the **** is up the the offense the last 5 games. Can't score more than 17 points and avoid turning it over like 1000 times

i am sadly now on the time for a change train.....mike is just not the proper motivator for a team that is this young and not prepared to work there butts off every week in practice he is a coach that needs self motivated people and these kids are not that

How long do we have to lose before you jump on the wagon? Time to move on without Shanny. In fact, I think it would be noble of him to resign. He has to be embarrassed.

I don't think we need to get rid of Shanahan but bring in a GM or a defensive specialist who knows how to pick defensive talent.

7 yards rushing. Is this the best Shanny can do?

I'm more sick of the offense than the defense. 5 straight games of K.C. Chiefs like offense. Are we ever going to score 20 points again?

Can't wait to hear Atlas's rant on this.

Two weeks of prep time for this game didn't help much. I don't expect anyone to be able to relate to this point of view but I don't think Shanny's mind is on football right now. He's battling a $40,000,000 eminent domain battle with RTD right now and my gut says he's more concerned about his millions then the team right now.

It's not the talent as much as the coaching.

I have no idea how to fix this team.

A rookie 7th fullback outperformed the entire offense, and played better than any defensive starter we have out there.

What a joke.

Wait a second! Can Hillis coach defense?

Instead of a stupid non-informative post like this backed up by all the time you've wasted on this forum (tens of thousands of posts) why don't you instead come up with what the Broncos need? Or tell the OP why you don't think Shanny should go. Or why you don't think the entire organization from top to bottom needs to be purged and start over.

The announcers were right, both teams are 4-4 but the Fins are heading up and the Broncos down. How many more mediocre seasons must we endure? NFL stands for Not For Long, meaning what have you done for me lately>? Not what have you done for me 10 years ago.

YEAH, MAN!! A 26-17 LOSS IS SIMPLY UNACCEPTABLE!!! 4-4 IS AN EMBARRASSMENT! A 3RD YEAR QB WITH A GUNSLINGER MENTALITY THROWING 3 PICKS?!? SHANAHAN SHOULD RETIRE!!!

This place is a ****ing joke. I'm out for the week. I can't stand it here anymore. It's overreaction at its worst. One pick and Cutler is a bust. One TD and he's Elway. One loss and the ownership needs to clean house. Not but 3 weeks ago, we were creme of the crop in the eyes of most of this board. You people talk about how we rebuilt in a year, how when we drafted Cutler, we begun rebuilding. We are still in a rebuilding phase. Admittedly, it's going way better than expected, and we should still win the division, but **** like this is going to happen.

Fire Shanahan? What a joke.

You local Boncs fans should thank your lucky stars for Pat and Mike , as someone who has been a broncos fan since 1985 you all are so lucky to have such a great owner and coach and a front office that don't make knee jerk decisions ... ever time someone hear wants to make another clean house thread please remember the other teams that would kill to have 2 titles been there 6 times and had one the best records in the nfl over a 20 year stretch ...


just remember this guys face next time you want to post something this
stupid Denver747...
I'm guessing your like 22 , 23 years old ... it happens .




id take the time to post the bengals record the last 25 years and a pic of every coach they have had in the time you guys had three , but you get where i'm going ....

I agree. 7-9 last year and should be 3-5 or 2-6 this year. Not to mention the team went 2-5 after a 7-2 start in 2006. 15-19 in the last 34 games while getting to play the chefs and raiders twice a year.
