ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- It has not been a breeze of change gently passing through the Denver Broncos' complex this time around.
No, three weeks into their offseason, the big-boy winds of change have cut a wide swath through what had been a reunion tour and reshaped everything less than year after the team won a Super Bowl.
When Gary Kubiak looked in the mirror and didn’t see the picture of health he hoped to see, he stepped away from coaching, said it was time to do something else. Kubiak had been a Broncos player for nine years, had been Mike Shanahan’s offensive coordinator for 11 years and had been hired by John Elway to be Broncos head coach, a job he held for two seasons.
