Broncos coach Gary Kubiak has no doubts that Peyton Manning is the right quarterback for his offense.
Kubiak said at the Scouting Combine that contrary to thoughts that Manning isn’t mobile enough for what Kubiak likes his quarterbacks to do, the Broncos’ offense will work just fine with Manning at the helm.
“Can he roll out? I think he can do anything he wants to do,” Kubiak said. “You do what your players do best. I’ve been asked over the course of the last month, since I’ve been in Denver, about the bootleg. I had Joe [Flacco] in Baltimore last year and I think we booted maybe 25 times in the season. You do what your players do best. We’re going to run the Denver Broncos offense, and that’s a big challenge to me right now, meshing things together and getting ready to go do the things that Peyton does so well and has for many, many years.”
So while Kubiak might make some minor changes to the offense that Manning has run in Denver the last three years, the bottom line is that Kubiak wants Manning to be his quarterback, and wants to put his quarterback in a position to do what he does best.
