Drew Lock going for the Cam Newton approach since he can't throw.

That should be a highly appropriate way to end the Fangio era. Lately the local radio shills have been carrying water for the broncos keeping him one more year. That would be a poor decision.

I'm gonna choose to believe he went with the "turn a one score deficit into a one score deficit" FG with less than five minutes let so as to intentionally get himself fired, which would be very nice of him to be fair.

He was a coward offensively throughout his whole tenure, so fitting way to go out.

Well congrats to Broncos fans on the end of the Vic Fangio era. Likely on the end of the Drew Lock era too. I think that if the Broncos had a guy who was like Derrk Carr, they would have been in the race for the Division.

Love that the Eagles backups are keeping pace with the Cowboys' starters. Gonna be awesome when Dak gets hurt in the second half and ####s their playoff hopes up because McCarthy is a moron.

Nope. Eagles haven't played a single defensive starter the whole game.

One of the Eagles 3rd stringers should have put Dak out. Imagine in hockey, there would have been line brawls.

Sounds like Nagy and Zimmer are out and Fangio will likely be out as well.

Harbaugh wisely using NFL leverage to get a fat new Michigan deal. I expect he gets something similar or higher than Mel Tucker got, like 10 years, $100 million.

Can't see it. I agree his is leverage to get more at Michigan. The guy lives in a house on the same street as Bo's family home. He's a king in that town. He's finally (apparently) got the momentum in the right direction. Being a college coach, even at his stratosphere, seems so much more enjoyable than the NFL gig.

College coaches are now routinely making more than NFL coaches, boosters want to win and will pay utterly insane amounts to do it (see: Brian Kelly and Mel Tucker). And Harbaugh isn't going to use another college job as leverage so the NFL makes sense as the leverage play.

Lots of rumours in Raiders circles that it's a done deal. He will probably get something similar to Gruden in that he gets 51% control and a nice salary. Nice timing for Fangio to get fired as I'm sure Harbaugh would like to reunite with him.
