Broncos pleased with Bradley Chubb’s edge rush, developing coverage skills

Bradley Chubb can’t really explain it, but going back to his early days playing football, the Broncos rookie outside linebacker has a proven knack for making a great impression. As in, Hello Mr. Ball Carrier. Welcome to the ground.

The first defensive snap of his senior season at North Carolina State? A tackle-for-loss of South Carolina running back Rico Dowdle.

The first defensive snap of his Broncos rookie season? A half-sack of Seattle’s Russell Wilson.

Chubb’s second snap (geez, what took him so long?) last week? A full-sack of Baltimore’s Joe Flacco.

“It’s crazy,” Chubb said.
