Almost all Broncos players had received an introductory phone call from new coach Gary Kubiak a couple months ago.

At 8 a.m. Monday, they heard Kubiak speak in person. Kubiak held his first team meeting as the Broncos opened their offseason program with the conditioning phase.

After the team meeting, the defensive players hit the weight room under the direction of strength and conditioning coach Luke Richesson, while the offensive players gathered with their coaches for meetings. A couple hours later, the players switched with the offense pounding iron and the defense studying Wade Phillips’ new 3-4 defensive playbook.

For being the scrawniest guy on the field, I love how Sanders always brings it. One of the few who looked like they cared during the playoff loss.

Yea, hard to really get up for this when at the very least we should of shown more than we did in the SB this year. All we can do at this point is hope we get back there for another chance but the Broncos blew a big opportunity last year.
