    As opposed to Kyle Shanahan who regularly benches talented players who don’t do what he says? Sometimes players aren’t a fit.

    That still doesn’t mean McDaniel’s is a great head coach, but it’s a dumbass point to make when plenty of successful coaches act like this.

      There are varying degrees of narcissistic behavior. Most egos would take a blow and might rethink their strategy riding a .385 winning percentage with his best year being his first year in Denver when Tebow literally ran to victory off script.

        McDaniels traded up to draft Tebow, but he got fired before the season where Tebow started. His first year in Denver was getting rid of a young Jay Cutler fresh off a pro bowl season, and replacing him with Brady Quinn and Kyle Orton. They went 6-0 to start the season thanks to some lucky wins, but reality caught up to them and they finished 8-8.

          That’s right. Sorry. I remembered that Tebow Magic was the only thing Denver got from the whole McD experience other than the need for a rebuild.
