ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The Denver Broncos are now on the hunt for the fourth head coach in a span of six seasons, the fourth head coach in John Elway’s tenure as the team’s chief football decision-maker. The question should be asked in and around the NFL about just how difficult it is to work for Elway’s Broncos.
Vance Joseph was fired after just two seasons on the job and two years left on his contract. In just under 24 months, the Broncos lost enough games to miss the playoffs for the third consecutive year, and fair or not, it cost Joseph his job.
