Broncos bring back Alex Gibbs. AFC West knees take warning
The knees of the AFC West are trembling. Or, if they’re not, they should be. Elway and Fox have welcomed Alex Gibbs, the King of the zone blocking scheme back into the fold. Gibbs served stints in Atlanta, Houston and Seattle since leaving the Broncos.
Gibbs was Denver’s offensive line coach during Terrell Davis’ heyday (when offensive linemen did not speak to the media). He had a nasty reputation for encouraging his players to endanger the lower extremities of opponents. Gibbs is only a consultant for the Broncos this time around but his addition is great news for fans of the ground game.
The Broncos continue to make impressive moves. Adding Gibbs is only the latest of these. Gotta hand it to the organization for not resting on its laurels.
