D'Amico Ryan's moving on
from San Francisco where he's been the defensive coordinator
for a couple of years.
Most likely to the Texans. He's told the Broncos no thank you
as I tweeted last night. A man, this really triggered, some
Broncos fans,
the new ownership group, is realizing quickly that running
a football team. At the NFL level is far more difficult
than buying and selling household goods on a razor thin
margin.
You can't really control
some of the key decisions that end
Being made regarding your football franchise such as
who's willing to come coach, your team, especially when you
have a quarterback under contract, that plenty of people
think has had his best days. Well, in the rearview mirror,
they've
wanted to make Orion supposedly. Now, he passes on
them, Jim Harbaugh,
they met with him twice. Greg pain of the CEO went to Ann
Arbor. That's significant. When the CEO. One of the most
successful men in American Business
goes to Ann Arbor instead of Ann Arbor
Coming to him, that speaks to a level of desperation by
the Denver Broncos. Sean Payton. Who knows where that stands?
So, I mean this is supposed to be about to make Orion's but
the background all of this is the Broncos, some of
the members of that ownership group reportedly wanted him
and he decides he's going to Houston instead and he played
there, it makes sense but that's where it's pointing
and that's good for the Texans miles not good for the Broncos.
Yeah, I mean, I think it's great for the Texans, I think
it's a great story but be it makes Sultana football sense,
right? I mean you get somebody in there who has a history with
the franchise and it's not like it's even
a franchise that's that old right significantly younger than me.
So I think that's one thing that actually connects him to
the fan base. And that's a good thing. But you also see what
D'Amico Ryan's has done as a coach as a coordinator and you
get Fred Warner talking about how it makes him emotional,
knowing that it's probably the last time he's going to play
under them. So Ryan's and to be go, Ryan's have been his
position coach then was his coordinator. So I think that
tells you a lot about what those guys with the San
Francisco 49ers, think about him and he obviously presided
over the most successful defense in the regular season
that we had this year. You know, when you're number one in
points allowed and total yards allowed, that means you're
the best defense in the league.
So I think that it's really encouraging for the Texans that
they were able to kind of make this
let's call. A fait, accompli. As it seems like it's going to
be we were talking about the Broncos to and they basically
make it known publicly by whether it's their choice or
not, that he's their number one
pick for coach and he ends up going to Houston
a franchise that we all kind of think of as dysfunctional.
I mean, it says something about both of those teams and both of
those situations and kind of, probably the Anvil that on
the organization, that is the Russell Wilson contract.
That really is amazing to think that the Broncos May emerge
from this process coming off as more dysfunctional than
the most dysfunctional team other than the Commander's for
slightly different reasons.
But from football perspectives, the Texans have been the most
dysfunctional by far the past few years. They went a tug of
war with the Broncos for D'Amico, Ryan's
great for the Texans, not great Bob
for the Denver Broncos, in that in that the line you like to
use. Not Great enough for madman. That is I'm hips. Yeah,
I'm down there times, although that's yeah, that's a serious
old coming,
a little dated as well. It's been a while, so don't, it's
a very old show,
Okay. So
this really isn't this really the more I think about this,
you know, one of the other issues with the Broncos to and
now we can pivot past the fact that it's expected that D'Amico
Ryan's is going to be the coach of the Texans at some point.
This week barring something unforeseen and we know, none of
these deals are
done until they're done more on that in a second.
