Hiring Vic Fangio, naming Gary Kubiak OC earns big praise around the NFL

The Broncos’ hiring of Vic Fangio as the new head coach - and announcing the return of Gary Kubiak as offensive coordinator - earned the equivalent of a big thumbs up from players, coaches, sportswriters and fans.

Bears’ cornerback Prince Amukamara tweeted “#cursewords” when it was first announced that his defensive coordinator who helped the Bears’ defense in a meteoric rise from last to first would be heading to Denver.

“Oh, man, they’re going to get a leader, and they’re going to get somebody who cares for them,” Amukamara said.
