This just in!  The question could be the answer.  The answer could be the perfect conclusion and panacea to the matter of the question.  Before the thought patterns of too many mad scientists start seeping in, it’s time to get the focus just right.

 

In looking at the Denver Broncos 2009 season, the reviews are in, and they are mixed.  There is but one clear method for the team to rectify the madness of this offseason.  Obviously, it’s win football games.  More esthetically abstract, the lyrical excerpt of the following song seems to shed some light. 

It’s the year in review while looking at what to anticipate. 

It’s the thing that can take any team from pretender to contender.

It’s a one word answer.  So without further ado.

Some questions still need to be asked and others answered about the 2009 Broncos.

What is it that has failed the Denver Broncos on the field the last few seasons? 

What is it that the front office has worked so hard to correct and sell this offseason?

What is the issue with discontented players and a highly determined head coach and his staff?

On the surface, for better or for worse, it’s a mad scientist favorite reactionary dream.

The Denver Broncos 2009 offseason will be one that will forever leave a mark in the sand of history for the professional football franchise.  There is no better time than the present with this being the 50th year the Broncos have played professional football.

With the dismissal of the team’s most successful coach in team history, something has permanently changed for the Broncos as an NFL franchise.  Stability and personnel alike are all left to question after the removal of Mike Shanahan with a young upstart, offensive-minded coach, who is a bit of a throwback in Josh McDaniels.

 

Message received!

Josh McDaniels was not afraid to rattle a number of cages upon his arrival.

Jay Cutler was the starting quarterback on the Denver Broncos last season. 

Oddly enough, Cutler disappeared from the Broncos' radar, facility, and roster, along with a slew of other veterans in the offseason.

Invisibly!
