Pat Bowlen the point man on player meetings now? - The Orange Mane

Taco John · 06-12-2009, 02:14 PM

Interesting... What does it mean?

At the very least, it means we're seeing a policy change. It's going to be interesting to see how the power structure in this organization breaks out.

Where did you find this tidbit?

Taco John · 06-12-2009, 02:33 PM

Texts per CBS4

CBS4 Broncos Insiders: Brandon Marshall did not show for mandatory minicamp today. He's in town and is set to meet with Pat Bowlen later today.

CBS4 Broncos Insiders: Receiver Brandon Marshall appears at Dove Valley for meeting with Bowlen, McDaniels.

Taco John · 06-12-2009, 02:40 PM

By the way... How can anyone call themselves a Broncos fan and not have the Broncos Insider text service in this day and age? How else will you know when to go running - not walking to the Mane!?

cutthemdown · 06-12-2009, 03:18 PM

Anytime someone powerful leaves an organization, business, govt, etc it creates a void where people will jockey for power.

I'm sure Bowlen see's that and maybe feels him assuming some of that power will take some pressure off Mcdaniels.

I agree though Taco it will be interesting to see who emerges over next couple of yrs as the powers in the Broncos Organization.

Shanny and the Goodmans has a lot of power.

even though i think he deserves more money, i don't like players holding out. but at least Marshall is going about this the right way and isn't following the path of his former QB ignoring the owner and coach. and not being like other players wanting more money who go crying to the media. he stayed quiet about it, is talking to the owner and coach and came in immediately.

i don't like that he is holding out, but i like the way he is handling himself in the situation

I can't remember... was Bowlen supposed to be involved in player situations or not?

When he wasn't, people got pissy.

When he is, people get pissy.

Sometimes I get this crazy idea that some people just want to be pissy.

Naahhh. Probably not.

cutthemdown · 06-12-2009, 03:52 PM

I agree with pops people just frustrated by 3 yrs of crap, then Cutler gets them excited, then he's gone, Shanny's gone, people just venting.

Only one thing can cure the Broncos fanbase and that's getting back into playoffs and being a contender again.

I think it has more to do with everything that he's publicly said, he's then turned around executed the opposite with his actions.

Any real fan would have the Mane just up on his computer running all day.

Being a military man that you are iam sure you understand that in the heat of battle ( things change) and direction needs to be adjusted from time to time to suite the situation.

5 paragraph order.

SMEAC

Mission
Execution
Administration
Logistics and command

Not one mention of lying constantly...

Missing the point:
Via using a rank structure.

First off, those situations do not compare to an off-season football franchise.

Secondly, any "rank structure" established in Dove Valley has been ambiguous and fluid ALL off-season.

If you have any issue with the validity of those facts, please express your disagreement.

It's never been said better than:

"No battle plan ever survives contact with the enemy." — Field Marshall Helmuth Carl Bernard von Moltke

Also true in business.

Define the contact with the enemy that Bowlen experienced that involved such improvisation and circumventing his own public statements...?
