also, I don't think telesco is safe either, he could very well be fired along with the coaching staff and it wouldn't surprise or bother me. even though he's done a good job bringing in talent, he's dropped the ball with the OL and with the two coaches he's hired. I can see the argument for getting rid of him but I personally think the chargers are not going to find someone much better in terms of roster building.
elway walked into a fantastic situation from a cap perspective, he signed lots of big name FA including manning. since then? he's not done a good job and it's amazing you don't see that. he's also failed and bringing in a competent coach, he's failed numerous times at bringing in even a decent starting QB. he hasn't done a great job at drafting.
elways best quality as a GM is signing FA's. no, I don't think he's as good as telesco when it comes to scouting and drafting, he's just not. he built a SB team via writing checks, not through the draft. I knew and told you all that wouldn't last, I told you all that his true test as a GM would come after manning retired and he's failed that test.
all that said, there are worse GM's than elway and he does deserve some credit for the winning. I don't believe I said he needs to be fired, I want him to stay and continue to wreck your team, trust me!

the broncos roster isn't hopeless, I agree with you there. but you need a real QB. lock isn't the guy and if I were a broncos fan I simply would not and could not trust elway to figure it out at this point. how many QB whiffs does he get before you start holding him accountable? that should be his area of expertise but he's obviously clueless.
