On Peyton Manning’s turnovers:
“He’s got some decisions I know he’d like to have back. When you’re the quarterback, you’re the guy pulling the trigger all the time. We know we have to improve in the turnover department. As a coach, you always look at it and say, ‘Okay, were we doing something on that route, maybe, that I shouldn’t be asking him to do?’ or those type [of things]. That’s how you look at things. There is no skating around the fact that we’re turning the ball over too much. He and I have got to get that improved, and we will. That’s important for our team.”
Kubiak understands as well as anybody that the Broncos’ offense is a work in process, but I think it’s only just dawning on him how big of a task it actually is.
I never thought I’d see the day when a coach was asking whether they were asking “too much” of Peyton Manning. Really, just think about that for a second. It’s crazy, and I don’t think Kubiak could’ve expected that when he got to Denver, either.
But that’s the way things are right now, and finding a solution may be the difference between another playoff flameout and a Super Bowl championship.
