ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- For the Broncos, last week's bye was not just about getting the closest to full health that they've been in months.
It was about having four extra practices to retool and refocus.
“We did a lot of individual work, really," said Head Coach Gary Kubiak. "We got back on our team stuff today and got going on Steelers. We did a lot of individual work, a lot of conditioning-type stuff, a lot of throwing and catching. It’s been good."
It was back-to-basics work that provided a needed refresher course on fundamental techniques after a season spent immersed in the week-to-week grind of game plans and strategy.
