ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Special teams is equal parts precision, execution, attitude and on-field hustle. But none of that happens without the support of the head coach, who must make success in that area of the team a high priority.
That's why when the Broncos opened their voluntary minicamp at the end of April, the most jarring -- and promising -- sight was the emphasis placed on special teams and the vigor at which the Broncos went about their drills. Players attacked their drills and sprinted from station to station.
"'Kubes' is great about that. He's been outstanding," Special Teams Coordinator Joe DeCamillis said during offseason work.
