I don't know that I would really call myself a Spurs fan, I have zero Spurs gear, have never been to a match, and my life is not affected any way whether they win or lose. I do like to see them do well, but I really wouldn't be in the position to brag to people about being a Spurs fan.

True
You don't think its ridiculous for a 35 year old man to be a fan of the Yankees, Duke, Lakers, and Cowboys?
That's the type of fans you get when you only root for a team because they are winning.
The Seahawks had the number 1 rushing offense in the NFL by a landslide and yet they struggle to score points. That tells you (along with WIlsons numbers) he's not an elite QB. Put him on the Raiders and they wouldn't go anywhere. But, what he is good at is being a piece that doesn't lose the games for you and will occasionally make enough plays to get the win. He's not a QB that comes from behind when they can't run the ball and the defense isn't stopping the other team. (Same thing he did at Wisconsin)
Borderline top 10....maybe. But, not someone that would lift a bad team into the playoffs like an elite or very good QB.

He isn't good. Not bad, but not good either. In the meh middle.
People want Denvers staff because they are good, well they are good because Elway has done a pretty good job, and they have Peyton Manning. See the last 5 games...
Gase and Fox are getting heat because they are winning and they are winning because of Peyton. Fox is a "just don't steer the ship toward the iceberg" kinda guy.
It is inexcusable in this day an age for coaches to not have an understanding on when to go for it on 4th down or when to go for a 2 point conversion. It's not a "gut" feel that coaches like to lean back on.

Guy hasn't ever been considered a head coach option all these years. Best DC in the game perhaps, but I think there isn't reason why he's never even gotten an interview for a vacancy. That being said I don't want to lose him from the team. If that means making him head coach then so be it.

Has nothing to do with that. Why support a team who had no desire to try and improve. Hiring Gase is a decision that says we don't want to get better.

Your opinion and you are probably considerably more ill informed to make that opinion than the FO
And besides.... Being a fan means riding the good with the bad

I understand that. See the early 2000s and staying with the bad.
Because they are YOUR team. But, choosing a team because they are winners gives you this attitude.

I didn't choose because they were winners. I can't question the front office if they make a terrible hire at least in my opinion.
Of course you can question it but choosing not to root for the team because of a coaching hire is silly.
What was your reason for choosing them?

What is wrong with Adam Gase? Zero head coaching experience and his own boss doesn't feel he's ready to be a head coach. His resume is pretty thin and being the OC for Denver is equivalent to being Manning's understudy.
