Broncos coach Gary Kubiak taken to hospital in an ambulance following loss to Falcons

Hope he is ok. Seems like a decent guy

Sh*t, and here I thought I take losses hard.

Hope he's ok

 

[Froob]

Hope he'll be okay.

He had a mini stroke not too long ago. 3 years maybe? The PR folks for Denver said "flu-like symptoms", but he sure looked fine to me during the game, at least whenever the cameras panned over to the Denver sideline and/or on to him.

Prayers indeed for him that it's just something mild.

Here's the article about his mini-stroke and his recovery, et al. It was in 2013,

Kinda surprised we don't see more HCs go down to illness. The tension and stress -- constantly under the microscope -- along with the insane amount of hours makes for one very serious and prolonged mental beating.

Given his team's performance today, can you blame him?

His team played admirably...holding the league's best offensive team to 23 and losing by a touchdown with a backup rookie quarterback.
It was far from the systemic meltdown we had hosting Buffalo.

Speedy recovery, Kubiak. Get well.

Dan Reeves had heart issues.
Fox had a heart attack
Kubiak had heart issues
In his interview a few weeks ago, Josh said he was incredibly unhealthy

Must be Denver. What a stressful place. No wonder they passed laws so people can smoke pot.

Low oxygen environment is not really the way to keep a heart healthy. I know that people living there get acclimatized, but maybe the effect is different for people who did not grow up there?

Read somewhere a few mins ago that he is doing well and out of hospital. Seems it was a complex migraine that caused fatigure.

Ugh migraine during a game would suck. I get migraines that is no joke. It's impressive he was able to stand up for the game, much less coach.

I agree. You can really see how the profession ages people. Coaches almost always look much older and fatter within a couple years of taking the job.

Migraines suck. Brutal. Debilitating. Cruel.

How BB is able to do what he does for this long and how is nothing short of miraculous.
