Any other option is still trash.
Only one player can save Denver and his name sounds a lot like MayMay GcKarchy

One thing I have learned about the NFL over the years is that it's all about job preservation. GM's and head coaches always like to keep a weak link around to be the fall guy that can buy them extra seasons. You see so many head coaches keep a bad OC or DC that's on the hot seat that extra year only to have to end up firing them in the middle of the next season. Everyone knew the firing was an inevitability and so does the HC but he also knows that the coordinator keeps the bullseye off his back. At the end of the season he can sell a new coordinator to fix things which keeps them safe for another year. You see it with GM's and bad head coaches knowing that their tenure is linked to coach hires so they keep a bad head coach one more season where he inevitably doesn't even last the full season but it gives the GM one extra season between his coach hires. I know we talk about meddling owners as a bad thing but if I was an owner I would nip that stuff in the bud and force them to fire their weak links rather than sink a season by bringing them back as so many teams waste seasons with coaches and coordinators that should have been fired the previous season.
