Quick thoughts today on Vance Joseph's return to Denver. It didn't work out in Denver for him as HC but that's mostly irrelevant. He's a competent Defensive Coordinator who has improved the defensive performance of teams that he's joined. The front will still be a 3-4, which is helpful from a personnel carryover standpoint. The schematic approach will be different than the last 4 years, and that may be good or bad. Here's the question - should you be more or less aggressive on defense?

Some thoughts today about coaching football, and business, and hiring, since we unfortunately keep having to go about this as #BroncosCountry fans. Thesis - Everything that most of us think is important is unimportant, and the important stuff is non-obvious. The football media messes us up, because a lot of what they have to say is motivated talking points that somebody (often agents) gave them. The rest is often nonsense that reflects a lack of understanding of how the world works beyond their immediate daily environment.

Let's talk about something important today, if you're a #BroncosCountry fan. That is, how to use the team's draft resources to create the best team possible for 2021 and beyond. I decided it would be fun to think about strategy, and to share some of that with you. 1/56 The best place to start is with an honest assessment of where the team is. The #Broncos went 5-11 in 2020, but there are some reasons for optimism, when you look at what caused the bad record. 2/56

Fans of #BroncosCountry football tend to love Phillip Lindsay. He's a local guy, and it's easy to relate to him and root for him. The local media likes him, because he's a good guy. (Never underestimate the degree to which that matters to how a player is covered.) 1/17 I remember the squawks last year from the beat crew, when the Broncos paid Melvin Gordon as a UFA, and didn't extend Lindsay. They were sure it was a tremendous injustice, and a huge mistake. Here was a LOCAL GUY and he couldn't get taken care of! 2/17

Some #Broncos thoughts on a Sunday after they played the day before - there's been a lot of hot takery lately about Lock, Fangio, Elway, Shurmur, everybody needing to go. You probably won't be surprised to learn that I think this is highly misguided. 1/44 When you clean house every 2-3 years, like the #Broncos have been doing, over the course of 20 years, you become the #Browns. You have to have patience, and let things develop, because nothing is fast. 2/44
