    I don't understand why, in 2010, when Bowlen stopped making all the decisions, and then in 2014 when he relinquished total control, things were not in place to make a smooth transfer. Why didn't they let Pat help in that transition in 2010 when he still had some mental stability. I don't know, it's become so frustrating, and I question whether I still want to be a fan of a team I've supported for 51 years due to the obvious disarray and no thought for the fans or players.

    if so still a terrible roadmap to new ownership

    The one thing I'll definitively say is Pat Bowlen loved the Denver Broncos and wanted to do his best to ensure future success -- but losing mental acuity sucks and I'm sure he thought he had more time to get a better plan ready -- but he ran out of time and we're seeing the direct results. What we'd all give to have Pat Bowlen back and mentally sound ------ we'd be all unicorns and rainbows like Paladin's avatar.

    maybe Pat himself contributed to this mess without a distinct transition plan

    I think Pat ran out of time and the plan that was put into place was not his best work or what he would have done 5 years earlier.

    Cutler claimed Bowlen was going to keep the offense coaching staff intact.

    Oh well...they will still be filthy rich when they sell! So no tears to cry over here. Frankly, I'm tired of this family and will be glad when I don't have to hear anything at all from the Bowlen brats.

    It's sad that NFL hasn't forced a sale yet. Not one of the Bowlen children are qualified to lead a NFL organization and they will all use Pat's Alzheimer's as a way to push their own agenda.

    We're going to be a bottom feeder until the organization is sold.
