Go inside the Broncos' huddle in the mid-'90s to hear sideline conversations between John Elway and newly elected Ring of Famer Mike Shanahan. Subscribe to Broncos » / broncos
Great to see the interaction - and huge respect for how Mike analysed and adjusted. I would love to see similar videos with Reeves, McDaniels, Fox, Kubes, VJ, Fangio.... I suspect that McDaniels and Kubes would be interesting to watch.
Mike Shanahan is the only high profile coaching hire I can recall that actually worked out BETTER than fans expected. People are always optimistic when they get a great coach. But the optimism usually fades, since the coach generally made his name on a team that was more talented than the new squad he's joining. But with Shanahan, everything was like out of a storybook. I just figured he'd help Elway pad his stats for his final years before retirement, and maybe make the playoffs a time or two...the prospect of winning rings really didn't occur to me...and to get TWO....Like I said, it was like a fairy tale...a magical time for Broncos fans...the golden era...I just regret that they didn't get their rings til they had changed their uniforms...When I think of the Broncos, I'll always see those fiery Orange Crush jerseys...
The best teams to ever take the field for the Denver Broncos right here, 1997 and 1998, just awesome, great memories......
Videos like this can make a grown man cry.. how I miss Broncos winning so naturally, effortlessly, sometimes flawlessly. Championship football
I miss this. Even with Peyton it's never been the same. These were my Broncos...
Remember back in the day when coaches never covered their mouth when relaying plays and tactics?
That was great! I love watching my coach and quarterback!
So cool to see Kyle behind Gary and Mike ! Go broncos !
Mike let John do his thing and do what He thought was best.

I love those reversible pullovers from the 97 season, I used to have one
See Kyle in the back just being a sponge and learning
It is gonna be wiiiiiiiiide open!
Elway finally got a coach who would work with him.
🧡💙 Go Broncos 💙🧡
They were perfect for each other, if shanahan was around earlier they would won at least one more SB

love this
Imagine if coach could've been the head man with Elway for a decade. We could've won a couple more rings but I am so happy we went back to back!!!
Kyle Shanahan & Gary Kubiak in there as well.
@:30…to the right of John Elway…the “kid” in the blue jacket and white t shirt…somewhere I’ve seen that dude before…lol…FAITHFUL
Huge error Broncos made was passing on Kyle and McVay. Unbelievable.
