The Facts: Gary Kubiak lost his job as the Texans head coach in 2013, spent last year running the Ravens Offense and he’ll kick off the 2015 season as the head coach of the Broncos. Kubiak was the second offensive coordinator in as many years to move to a head coaching job, following Jim Caldwell’s lead, and Marc Trestman may be trying to follow the same path.

Diehards Line:
Trestman drew a lot of interest around the league as an offensive coordinator after the Bears fired him following two years as a head coach. He’ll now try to maintain the high levels that the Ravens offense hit with Kubiak at the controls and may have to do it with different pieces if pending free agents like Justin Forsett, Torrey Smith and Owen Daniels don’t return to the team. ...
