Nothing if getting to the playoffs was the aim. But Elway has always made it clear he's about one thing, the championship. Fox got them to the playoffs pretty much all the time, but Denver spent a lot of money to gather talent around Manning, only to be embarrassed three years in a row. First time one and done, second time humiliated on the big stage, and this year spanked in their own house. This was pretty much their last shot at it: Peyton's nearly forty, the free agency market's gonna chew the team up this year. They'll never get a better look at it, and they failed badly. So Fox has to go.
