Watch the vid...it's only 25 minutes.
in other revelations, Penner is in charge of the head coach search and the new head coach will report to him. Paton isn't going anywhere

in order to be fixed you have to be broken. They are saying he’s broken.
if this were 4 years ago Mike Shanahan checks every box Penner is looking for.
CEO type, winning culture, offensive identity, up and coming offensive staff members , defense in place
Joe Ellis was the first to screw this franchise

He ain't fixable.Comment

I'm concerned that Paton still thinks this roster is good. The new head coach/staff better have a say in the construction of the roster, or this is going to happen again.Comment

Just my opinion but I think Paton is a goner or has been regulated to Brian Xanders status.Originally posted by bronco militia View Post
Just going to be providing scouting reports, delivering the pizzas and grabbing coffee for the real shot callers or be sent packing if the next HC wants his own guys.Comment

We’ve all witnessed it first hand, but still, when you have to say your $250 million QB is “fixable”…. What a disaster this season has beenComment

Ugh, it's amazing how bad we have been on special teams and cannot seem to get it fixed.Comment

IMO, it's a roster issue. It's not very good to begin with, and then things get worse as the injury bug hits.Originally posted by IndelibleScribe View PostComment

Yeah to me it always feels like the bottom 30% of the roster is really weak which could help explain a lot of the endless special teams mess. Might need to examine the general roster building approach to improve those units.Comment

I definitely agree. But it seems as if the younger guys should be playing with their hair on fire during special teams to get noticed. But with us having light practices, it's not like you can truly stand out.Originally posted by bronco militia View PostComment

First of all you don't trade for a QB and give that much money and say "He is fixable".
These type of words you use for a rookie QB.
Owners are agreeing that Mr.Unlimited has flaws. I can predict the future.
Next coach will try to "FIX" him and the team will give up on him. after next season, he will be cut.
Paton(if not fired by then) will be fired after next season.
Hoping that Sean Payton agrees to coach and we can fire Paton now itself.

Worst case scenario is that Russ is "fixed" enough for 8 wins and the cycle of turds continues through 2024. I really think Papa Walmart is keeping Paton around while he attempts to leverage a big name coach like Harabaugh or Payton. Meanwhile Paton continues to do all of the day to day draft nerd prep work. If Walton-Penner is able to secure a top tier coaching candidate it will be because they gave him a **** ton of cash and the GM hire. If that happens Paton is getting let go in late April/early May.Comment

This is the way I view it. Unless the new HC likes Paton and doesn't want to deal with the day to day grind of GMing and keeps him on as that type of GM.Originally posted by Don Eladio View PostComment

Everyone around the league including Wilson’s own last team knows he can’t be fixed.
yet Paton is the only one who thinks he can.
this is literally what a bottom gutterball sports team looks like and is run.
this is just like McDaniels being the only one who thought Tebow could be fixed.
the entire roster is trash. And that’s all Paton.
His FA choices suck. His draft picks suck.
let’s keep him though.Last edited by The1percentKid; 12-27-2022, 05:11 PM.Comment

Adam peters is the way.
too bad people in The building can’t even see that.Comment

I like Penner. Paton is a cocky prick.
I say replace him with Rice.

Hire Manning.Comment

the new HC may be a CEO type. That’s a Payton or Harbaugh.
Paton will quit or serve as a #2 but Penner is not stupid to just pay someone to go away who has valuable skills around the draft and scouting.
if Paton wants to quit they owe him nothing.
i find it disingenuous and funny as hell for some of the loudest Paton haters to praise him in back April for the trade and push for an extension back then.
even the seattle trolls use the term “maybe Russ will win big in Denver” not really knowing for sure after 10 years how Russ will perform in Denver

Agree. They can keep Paton as “GM” but he won’t have full GM power and authority. Several teams have a setup like this, the Chiefs for example.Originally posted by IndelibleScribe View PostComment

Wow!!! That quote goes right up there with Hackett saying "to win we need to score more points." I guess hiring a HC who actually talks to the QB and mentors him is groundbreaking. I must be behind my times......Originally posted by Tangerine View PostComment

The issue with this statement is that RW can no longer be an 'out of the pocket' QB. Those days are long gone. His athletic ability has declined rapidly and those exciting plays he made in Seattle won't happen in Denver.Originally posted by Mozzafiato View PostComment

Wouldn’t read too much into that, Paton was all over the place in that presser. He was spooked and fidgety, looked like a guy with no answers.Originally posted by Tangerine View Post
He’s been relegated to an Xanders GM. Getting Penner coffee and those TPS reports (office space reference).Comment
