re: The coaching candidate pool this offseason is going to be very dearth

yes he bailed.

look we all agree he landed Drew and it was a total crap shoot. BUT he built the offense around Drew, and when the backups had to come in and play, the offense lacked the normal rhythm. i think Sean knew that retooling the offensive scheme for a different QB was gonna be a bitch, so he left because "he needed a break".

the fact is, he wanted to wait for the right job to come along and be able to step in with a QB that could run his system, and not have to completely rebuild - Denver happened to fit that mold.

again, not shitting on Sean - I appreciate what he gave us - but the dismiss that he left when the going was gonna get rough, it silly at best.
