With rumors of Tony Romo to the Broncos heating up, lets take a look as to why this marriage would make so much sense for John Elway.

John Elway—Meet Tony Romo.  The Denver Broncos have a job to do this offseason; it’s time to reboot this team back into Super Bowl contention.  The simplest way to do that is to upgrade the most important position of any football team.  Enter Tony Romo.

For months, the Denver Broncos have been linked to Tony Romo.  Now, with Romo likely set to hit the open market after the beginning of the league new year, the rumors can become a reality.  Denver has two fine young quarterbacks in Trevor Siemian and Paxton Lynch.  If the Broncos prove unable to acquire Tony Romo, the present, nor the future are shot.  However, it is unlikely that either of these two young signal callers are truly ready to lead the Broncos to their fourth Super Bowl crown in 2017.

When Vance Joseph was brought to town, he assembled a Dream Team of coaches around him—most notably on the offensive side of the ball.  Mike McCoy was brought back to the Broncos, largely in part to his success in working with different types of quarterbacks.  In recent history, McCoy has molded offenses for Kyle Orton, Tim Tebow, Peyton Manning, and Philip Rivers—each one a bit different.  There is one common trait throughout McCoy’s offenses; they are all tailored specifically to the quarterback running them.
