Don’t worry, be happy Broncos fansWhile we were in Rome over the last week (a wonderful city, by the way), we decided to do a dawn E-bike tour through the city. It was a great way to see as many sights as possible and I would highly recommend the experience to anyone visiting the Eternal City. It was really lovely except for the fact that one of our group fell and broke her arm. Guess we should have seen that coming...While she was at the Italian hospital, looking pained and worried, a doctor - who apparently looked like a pirate - wrapped her arm to make a cast. Though his English was non-existent, he had good music taste and to try to help her feel better, he calmly sang, “Don’t worry, be happy.” Apparently this was met with a mix of laughter and terror but after the 10th re-telling of the story, it actually made me think of my Denver Broncos.The Broncos in 2015 were an E-bike with turbo. They had just won a Super Bowl and though the Hall of Fame QB was retiring, they had still managed to keep together one of the best defenses the league had ever seen and retained some good pieces on offense as well. They were ready to roll with a well-oiled, though QB-less machine. But then, through a mix of bad luck, bad decisions and a really unfortunate hire Womens Bradley Chubb Jersey , the Denver Broncos fell off their bike and broke an arm. Train wreck, bike wreck, all around garbage is what we have had to deal with over the last two-plus seasons, and at times I know many of us did experience physical pain thanks to our disaster of a football team. Unfortunately broken arms take some time to heal, even after being set correctly, but thank goodness, the current team feels like it has finally taken off its sweaty, stinky cast and is at the point where it is trying to add some muscle before getting back to normal strength. Peyton Manning is saying “we” when referring to the Broncos. Chris Harris Jr. got his just due. The players seem happy, motivated and confident, and the coaching staff is respectable. There’s some really good talent sprinkled throughout the team and some guys in their contract years are going to ball out this season. These are just a few reasons for why we should smile this offseason and think of the words of a dear, Italian Pirate Doctor:“Don’t worry, be happy!”The best part of this story was actually that before he finished, the doctor concluded with some more Bob Marley wisdom and looked her square in the face and said:“No woman, no cry.”Beautiful.

(AP) — John Elway’s search for his fourth coach in six seasons began with former Colts head coach Chuck Pagano, a native of Boulder, Colorado, on Wednesday.Elway fired Vance Joseph after he went 11-21 in two seasons. Joseph is interviewing for the Cincinnati Bengals‘ opening Thursday and Friday. Joseph was a former assistant to longtime Bengals coach Marvin Lewis Womens John Elway Jersey , who was also among the eight head coaching casualties of the 2018 season.Pagano was head coach in Indianapolis from 2012-17. He posted a record of 53-43 in the regular season and 3-3 in the playoffs. After posting 11-5 records in each of Andrew Luck’s first three seasons and leading the Colts to the AFC championship game in 2014, Pagano won eight, eight and four games (with Luck injured) in his final three seasons.Pagano has worked with Broncos special teams coordinator Tom McMahon, who declined to comment last week on Pagano’s coaching credentials given his possible return to the NFL after a year’s absence. But he did vouch for Pagano’s character.“I’ll tell you this, Coach, as a human being, is one of the greatest men I’ve ever been around in my life,” McMahon said. “As a man, nothing like him.”The Broncos also plan to interview former Titans head coach and current Steelers offensive line coach Mike Munchak, Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio (on Monday), Rams QBs coach Zac Taylor and Patriots de facto defensive coordinator Brian Flores.Unlike the last two hires, Gary Kubiak in 2015 and Joseph in 2017, Elway doesn’t appear to have a preferred candidate going into his latest head coaching search.Elway agreed with star cornerback Chris Harris’ damning assessment that the Broncos need to modernize their offense and their defense to catch up to the NFL’s run-pass option trend that teams such as the playoff-bound Chiefs, Ravens, Rams and Eagles have already integrated into their playbooks.That doesn’t mean Elway necessarily prefers a young coach with offensive roots, as evidenced by his short list that includes three coaches that are about his age — 58 — and a mix of offensive and defensive expertise.“I want them to be great on one side of the ball and great at what they do, whatever that position may be, whether it be a coordinator or whatever they’ve done Bradley Chubb Broncos Jersey ,” Elway said. “I look for greatness on that side. For me, I look for experience. I want the guys that understand the game, they understand X’s and O’s but also have the ability to lead men. That’s a big part of it in today’s world.“We’re going to try to find that guy with that ‘it’ factor, that can make those right decisions and also lead men. We’re confident that we can find that guy.”Vacancies with the Packers, Browns, Jets and Cardinals are seemingly much more appealing because those teams all have their franchise quarterback in place. Denver has the middling Case Keenum at quarterback, a public ownership squabble, a three-year playoff drought, holdovers from Joseph’s staff still under contract and a demanding general manager and fan base short on patience.Still, Elway insists the Broncos’ gig is as enticing as ever.Elway said he has faith in the Bowlen family trust that’s run the team since Pat Bowlen stepped down several years ago to battle Alzheimer’s. And he said the Broncos provide everything a head coach needs to win, including state-of-the-art training facilities and a front office willing to make the moves necessary to upgrade the roster.“I think the right kind of guy wants to come into a situation like this because he knows what the expectations are and what our expectations have been,” Elway said. “Therefore, I think guys want that opportunity. They want to come into a spot where they know it’s about football and about winning games.“Given that opportunity, the resources behind him that we can give him, I think it’s a great job.”
