Denver Post Troy Renck @TroyRenck 6d

Kubiak 's zone blocking scheme could send already solid CJ

Anderson straight to Pro Bowl.

Milehighsports.com Benjamin Allbright @ AllbrightNFL 3d

I'll tell you this, regardless of what Manning decides, CJ

Anderson will be a monster in Kubiak offense.

ESPN Cecil Lammey @ CecilLammey 3d

The Gary Kubiak system is going to be interesting for the

Broncos - somewhere CJ Anderson is smiling, could put up

monster numbers under GK

FFToolbox:

"In Gary Kubiak's past 20 years as an NFL coach, his teams have boasted a top-five rushing offense 10 times. That span included five different 1,000-yard running backs during his 11 years in Denver. ... C.J. Anderson believes he can be No. 6 with the help of Kubiak's zone-blocking scheme. "I can't wait to get started working with him."

Utah Jazz writer Andy Bailey @ AndrewDBailey 3d

Really hope Kubiak can resurrect the late-90s/early-2000s running game of the Broncos. Could be a big year for CJ Anderson.

Rotoworld:

"C.J. Anderson said the Gary Kubiak offense fits him well.

We'd agree. Kubiak executes a Shanahanian scheme, which means zone-blocking concepts and one-cut running. It's been incredibly successful on the ground, producing big Kubiak-led seasons out of Clinton Portis, Reuben Droughns, Mike Anderson, Steve Slaton, Arian Foster and Justin Forsett (and Olandis Gary and Terrell Davis). Anderson's downhill style meshes well ... There's first-round fantasy upside here."

Pro Football Focus fantasy expert Mike Clay @ MikeClayNFL 3d

Celebrate, CJ Anderson owners

NFC South lead writer for BR Brent Sobleski @ brentsobleski 5d

Well, if Elways gets his man in Kubiak , CJ Anderson will be a

top pick in fantasy football.

Rotoworld Nick Mensio @ NickMensio 13 Jan

If Broncos can lure Gary Kubiak as head coach, C.J.

Anderson is a lead-pipe lock first-round pick in 2015 fantasy

drafts.

ESPN last year before Kubiak made Forsett a 1,000-yd rusher:

"During Kubiak's tenure as offensive coordinator in Denver and head coach in Houston, he has had seven running backs top 1,000 yards rushing in a season. All but one -- Clinton Portis -- were drafted in the third round or later.

“All the sudden some back you’ve never heard of has got a thousand yards,” Ravens DC Dean Pees said last season when talking about Kubiak ... “It’s kind of the system.”

That "system" has produced such 1,000-yard rushers as Terrell Davis (sixth round), Olandis Gary (fourth round), Mike Anderson (sixth round), Reuben Droughns (third round), Steve Slaton (third round) and Arian Foster (undrafted)." And now: Justin Forsett (7th Round)

Jeff Rodgers is a good ST coach also.

Ed Donnatell is joining them to coach DBs too.

 

 

All he needs now is a brain/emotions to put into Jay Cutler.

 

 

I just don't think that he can be a consistent QB, well, maybe consistent, but not consistently good.

49ers hire 44-year-old Eric Mangini as their DC -- a former DC under Belichick at the Patriots (where he ran a 3-4 defense), he went on to be head coach of the Jets and then the Browns (he ran a 3-4 defense at both). He's been with the 49ers the last 2 seasons

49ers hire 40-year-old Jason Tarver as LB coach and senior defensive assistant. He was with 49ers for 10 years from 2001-2010 (last 6 as LB coach) before being hired by new Stanford coach David Shaw to replace Vic Fangio as DC of Stanford...then he was hired as DC of Raiders, a position he held for the last 3 seasons (age 38, age 39, age 40)

49ers hire 53-year-old Tony Sparano as TE coach (former head coach of Dolphins for 4 years, also 12 other years NFL experience as an offensive coach, including stints as TE coach for Cowboys, Redskins, and Jaguars)

49ers hire Chris Foerster as OL coach. He was previously OL coach for the Redskins from 2010-2014 (where Alfred Morris was a 1,000 yard rusher for the last 3 years straight), the first 4 years under Shanahan. Before that he was OL coach for the 49ers (2008-2009), the Ravens (2005-2007 under Brian Billick) and the Bucs (1996-2001 under Tony Dungy). Was also Colts TE coach from 2002-2003 under Tony Dungy

NFL.com Around The NFL @ AroundTheNFL 20h

Elway said he consulted Manning before taking next step

with Kubiak

Denver Post:

"The seismic impact was felt throughout the Rocky Mountains on Tuesday, and the celebration in the auditorium at Dove Valley was beyond exhilarating. But the 6-foot-5, 230-pound elephant was not in the room.

Peyton Manning.

According to three trustworthy sources, Manning wants to return to the Broncos, but won't and can't make a final decision until he takes an annual physical examination mandated by his contract. Last year, the test results were learned at the beginning of March.

...

Those close to Manning — and who spoke for background on the condition of anonymity — claim that he..would like to continue playing; he must await tests results on his repaired neck — and, obviously, the calf injury that prevented him from playing in the Pro Bowl"

other reasons cited for Manning coming back include:

--"With their mother Ashley, young Mannings Mosley and Marshall were seen crying in the hallway after the Broncos' final game (vs Colts)"

--"Manning, who turns 39 on March 24, is due $19 million next season."

--"the commercial branding of the Manning name nationally and locally with automobiles, insurance and pizza (he owns 21 Papa John's in Colorado)"

I can quickly think of 19,000,000 reasons why Peyton Manning will try to return  to Denver and play in 2015. :)

Mangini

The big question is can they operate a garbage truck. If I know that FO they can...
