Broncos Hire Retread

Wow that John Elway has been quite the difference maker in his first few weeks in charge in Denver.  After being told by various different coaching "candidates" that they were not interested in the Broncos vacancy, the Broncos officially hired John Fox today. 

Fox, who recently lost his job with the Panthers after an impressive 2-14 year complete with a quarterback carousel, will succeed Josh McDaniels in Denver and will have his fate in Denver tied to Virgin Air himself, Tim Tebow. 

I want to qualify this statement by saying that I think John Fox is a better than average head coach.  He got to a Super Bowl with Jake Delhomme as his QB, which is the equivalent of playing Russian Roulette for 20 weeks straight with 5 bullets in the chamber.  That said, I gotta condemn this hire.  An inability on Elway's part to get a big name interested in his vacancy followed by a hiring of coaching retread, a guy that the 2-14 Panthers thought was the wrong guy for the job, is not going to be a difference maker for that organization.  Sorry, but it isn't.
