On Sunday, the Denver Broncos stormed into the site of their Super Bowl 50 victory with food on their face, pants un-zipped, and shoes untied.

The Broncos weren’t ready to play to the San Francisco 49ers.

With just one threat on the 49ers offense, the Broncos allowed tight end George Kittle to ring them up for over 200 yards... in the first half. Playoff teams don’t allow career games to players who have nothing to play for, especially when the scouting report has this guy’s name highlighted and circled in red sharpie. Just think what Chubb and Miller could have done with a coordinator who actually knew how to move them around on the line to get after the quarterback. Part of me feels like I’m being too harsh, but damn... a tight end on a 2-10 team got over 200 yards on the Broncos? How the do you let that happen?! Defensive coordinator Joe Woods should be ashamed.

I’m convinced Bill Musgrave has no clue what he’s doing. Empty sets on third down have become a staple. A staple, except in the last play of the game when we need a Hail Mary to make something happen, when we know the 49ers are only going to rush three. I would never pretend to know more about how to use personnel, but I know that Lindsay is money when running off the edge. Where are the pitches outside? On short yardage, why run him inside?

For as awful as Musgrave’s play-calling was on the ground, his calls in the air were equally infuriating. How do you pay a quarterback $18 million a year and not let him throw past his arm’s length? Dinking and dunking has its place, but when it’s not working you have to come up with something else. When the box is stacked on every play, it’s time to throw it past the sticks. I know that Keenum is better than the plays that are being called for him. I’ve seen it. Without stretching the field, opposing defense don’t have to be at all creative. They just have to hunker down and let the swing pass crap out in front of them.... every... single... time...

Which brings me to Vance Joseph. I can bring up his play challenging history and his clock management track-record, but instead, I’d like to try an exercise. Right now, google Vance Joseph... Now select images. Do those pictures look like a man of confidence, poise, and determination? Did you notice this?

When your head coach is the google poster-child for the word ‘confused,’ you’ve got problems. That’s a sign that the fanbase has seen enough. While I’d like to lay blame at the feet of Joe Woods or Bill Musgrave, responsibility ultimately falls upon this man... the man whom Google associates with confusion.

I’m all for giving breaks where breaks are due, but at what point can a fan claim that they’ve seen enough? This fan certainly has.
