Are you referring to Kubiak's mini-stroke?

So, about that... Chance of recurring?

Houston will give up 2 firsts for Manning.

I have no idea. If he had undiagnosed circulatory problems that led to it then I would say the chance is small because he's probably getting treatment that he wasn't getting before it happened.

Took him 6-7 seasons for him to make the playoffs in Houston

They almost always played down to expectations.

If Elway thinks he can re-create an offense to protect Manning the same way Kubiak and Shanahan created an offense to help Elway win two Super Bowls at the end of his career… he is overlooking several key differences:

1) Alex Gibbs zone blocking scheme is not in place.
2) Terrell Davis is not walking through that door.
3) Manning is far more washed up than Elway was.

Houston imploded in Kubiak's final season there and he basically had a nervous breakdown. He will be under intense pressure to deliver a Super Bowl in what will likely be Manning's final season next year… and he doesn't have a good track record of handling adversity or pressure well as a HC.

Kubrick is known for his zone blocking schemes. Eight different running backs have had at least 1,000 yard seasons under Kuniak. The Ravens had their most productive offense under him in the Flacco era.

Elway and Kubiak are buds. Kubiak runs Elway's favorite offensive scheme, which will help him identify players who excel in that scheme. Kubiak's had some prior success as a head coach and just spent a year in Baltimore, which had to be a good learning experience.

Unfortunately for us Chiefs fans, I think this is a very, very good hire. I just hope he doesn't get Vic Fangio to run the defense.

Yes. His team imploded and he cracked under the pressure.

Rick Smith is and was an awful GM. Kubiak just finished the year in Baltimore where they had the best offense since they drafted Flacco.

Throw out that awful 2-14 season, where Schaub hit the wall and he was forced to play an undrafted free agent QB, and he looks pretty damn good.

Kubes is eh? So effing what.

Denver is planning for the future with Kubiak. If Manning comes back, it will be his show for one more year, but make no mistake, after Manning is gone we will get to see the bootleg offense that fisted our defensive ends over and over.

He had a better offense than Jim Caldwell, who just had a pretty good season with the Lions.

If Denver has decent QB play, they're going to be a tough out, as usual.

So...you think stress caused his blood to clot?

Also Denver is going to have to adjust their offensive line in one offseason to fit Kubiak's preferred zone blocking scheme.

This seems to be asking for a lot of adjustments/changes to happen in one offseason/season.

Denver won't change their offense to a full Kubiak offense if Peyton comes back.

Like I said, they are planning for AFTER Manning with the Kubiak hire.
