The Denver Broncos had gone through five defensive coordinators in five seasons heading into the 2011 season.  It’s sweet schadenfreude seeing the rest of the AFC West going through these growing pains for a change. The San Diego Chargers relieved defensive coordinator Greg Manusky of his duties today, Norv Turner announced. Manusky inherited the NFL’s [...]
