Elway's whining about Reeves' coaching style (I guess he yelled at poor Johnny) to the owner got Reeves fired.
I hope that Johnny Elbow gets canned after this year (he won't) is over for the once-great,
now-pathetic Denver Broncos last place finish of a team that he is responsible for putting together as the general manager. Like all corporations, he was promoted for being a putz...as long as ticket sales were good.
He was a fantastic quarterback. Threw the ball as hard and as long as anyone in the game. Won a couple of championships....but that's where it all ends. He rose to a level of incompetence that many swollen headed ex-jocks do. Wayyy over his head in management from day one. The phrase should be changed from "The Peter Principle" to "The Elway Principle". Just a thought.
Dan Reeves is receiving words of greatness as a man in his eulogies from his peers.
I believe that is the best one can hope for at the end of a good ride as a coach and a player.
I hope his family allows an examination for CTE to benefit other players' futures.
Rest well, sir, you have earned your place.
