Elway Is Returning to the Broncos!

Ok So we arn't going to see number 7 doing another helicopter move in the super bowl this season but Elway is coming back in a mentor role for the Broncos! It has been anounced that Elway is going to work with head coach Josh McDaniels and be an advisor to all aspects of day to day operations! This is the best news of the off season and I could not be happier to have John Elway back and invloved with the Denver Broncos again. This will no doubt benefit the new kid in town Tim Tebow. Between Elway and McDaniels he is going to have some great teachers!

Check out this article http://www.denverpost.com/broncos/ci_15386559 it is one of the most intersting and juicy articles of the offseason. It is written by Woody Paige and it talks about Elway wanting to get back involved earlier but issues came up between Elway and Shanahan. I found this extremley suprising perhaps Shanahan wanted to win that 3rd ring without Elway as that has been the knock on him since Elway retired in 99. It also mentions how he is ready to get in to NFL ownership now that he has experince from owning the Colorado Crush (a defunct Arena Football team). Perhaps Pat Bowln will sell the team to John when he is ready to call it quits imagine that!

There couldn't be any thing more exciting coming out of Denver right now and this will bring even more optimism to the coming season. Now we just need to see it all come together in September once the season starts.

I wanted to add another point to all this. Now that John Elway and Rod Smith both legends in Denver are on board with the direction Josh McDaniels is taking the team this could and should go a long ways to Josh winning the fans over and forgeting about all the Cutler and Marshall drama that divided the fanbase over the last year. If Elway is on board what the hell we the fans should go along for the ride Elway knows a thing or two about Denver Broncos Football. So nice to see good news coming out of Denver and the off season AFC West drama shifted further west to San Diego this summer!
