The Denver Broncos (2-1) will host the Kansas City Chiefs (3-0) on Monday Night Football in a game few expect them to win or even come close to winning Garett Bolles Jersey , which is surprising considering its an AFC West divisional game and Denver at home is never an easy out even in the worst of times.Right now, people only see Patrick Mahomes and that explosive offense. They are ignoring the porous and mistake-prone defense that gives up just as many explosive plays. If the Broncos defense can come out and generate pressure on Mahomes and keep the intensity high despite some of the big plays the Chiefs will get, then that should keep the game within striking distance for Case Keenum and the Broncos offense.Many of us are worried the Broncos are not a very good football team and this game will either confirm our fears or allay them. Broncos vs. Chiefs live updatesGame Info / Live UpdatesEverything we know Tweets from https://twitter.com/MileHighReport/lists/the-broncos-beat The announcement hit us all in the heart. It was the moment everyone associated with the Denver Broncos dreaded. But when it came at the start of training camp in July 2014, we knew it was the end of an era. That was when Pat Bowlen surrendered control of the team as he battled Alzheimer’s disease.The Broncos would go on to win Super Bowl 50, and John Elway was able to repay the legendary owner with those four magical words: “This one’s for Pat.” But since that moment, never has the absence of Mr. B been more apparent and painful. The last two seasons have been a textbook in ineptitude — on every level. The coaches can’t coach, the front office has more misses than hits, and the franchise still can’t get a name on its stadium. And now, many fans have given up 鈥?in Week Six. As I told Adam Malnati on the latest MHR Radio Podcast Authentic Jake Butt Jersey , the more than 9,000 no-shows on Sunday indicate we just need to call it “No-Show Stadium.” Our natural instinct is to point the blame at someone. Vance JosephThe rest of the coaching staffThe playersJohn Elway Joe EllisWhen a once proud franchise falls this far, all are to blame. There is more than enough to go around. But this problem runs much deeper and isn’t easily fixed. There’s no Mr. B. There’s no owner to hold the decision-makers accountable. Yes, Joseph will eventually get fired, as will his inept staff. The franchise will move on from the older veterans with larger salary cap hits and continue to push the “we’re a few moves away” bullshit. But what about the people at the top of the pecking order who triggered this derailment? Does anyone believe Ellis will even contemplate moving on from Elway? Does anyone honestly think Ellis will correct his own deficiencies? That’s the problem. Bowlen isn’t there to walk the halls of the facility to keep everyone in check. There is no owner to provide leadership or to hold every single employee accountable — regardless of title or name.Here’s the question that must be asked: How much longer can this go on? I get that the Bowlens want to keep the franchise in the family. They want to pass on a legacy and keep the tradition alive, similar to the Rooneys with the Pittsburgh Steelers. But at this point, the franchise cannot wait for one of the two Bowlen children to take over. The lack of leadership is inflicting damage on a weekly and seasonal basis, leaving a series of unwanted records in its wake. Last season’s team experienced its longest losing streak in 50 years, and the Broncos are now on pace to have back-to-back losing seasons for the first time in 45.The fans are losing interest and hope. No longer will fans give the franchise the benefit of the doubt Youth Connor McGovern Jersey , and when you lose Broncos Country, there is no greater indictment on the state of your franchise.The cheesy slogans are wearing thin. “No Plan B.” “Trust in Elway.” “This isn’t a rebuild, it’s a reload.”Then there’s the losing, but also how the team is losing. In embarrassing fashion, over and over again. Just like last season, the amount of games Denver has a realistic shot at winning is running as thin as the oxygen here.That is unacceptable. The standards were once higher for this organization. And they still should be. Maintaining a winning tradition demands more than cheap publicity stunts that fool fans into shoveling money at a shitty product. Where is the accountability for every single person in the organization? For those who forget, here’s a reminder of what the standard once was for this franchise: If you don’t win or compete for Super Bowls, you are out of a job. And that’s not just a talking point to reference how great of an owner Mr. B was.Until the Broncos get leadership at the top and fill in the hole left by Mr. B’s absence, it’s hard to see how any of this changes.
