Penry and McDaniels: A New Day in Colorado Indeed

  •  
  • by: abernathy

mcdaniels_penry_600

Gubernatorial Candidate Josh Penry and Denver Bronco’s Head Coach Josh McDaniels have lots in common.

Penry and McDaniels are the same age. Many scoffed at the idea that a fresh face and new day for the Broncos’ coaching regime could produce instant results -but it did. Penry has faced the same challenges in the past but like McDaniels, Penry has provide victories and results.

Both Penry and McDaniels have a perfect record in Colorado. Institutional sports critics wrote off the Bronco’s early season wins as luck. But the last two victories over NFL stalwart teams demonstrate McDaniels is, well, in it to win it. Critics may underestimate what a fresh face brings when pitted against a stale offence, or throwback candidate.

Like the McDaniels locker room, Penry has players who believe. While Penry’s primary opponent has multiple, high level lobbyists on payroll, the Penry Team largely consists of players who believe in the coach and the philosophy Penry brings to the game. Having players with big passion is more important than players with big salaries. McDaniels learned that with his QB.

Most important similarity? Both Penry and McDaniels have a love for the game. Penry demonstrated throughout his life, starting with football, that leadership on the field translates to real life. Penry brings his passion from the field to the political arena, and like McDaniels’s fans, Penry allows his supporters to Believe.

Penry and McDaniels: A New Day in Colorado? Indeed.
