Sorry if my IQ comment was upsetting Ningie. I should have said it a different way, but was having a very hectic day and posted a quick response.
Ok, let me try it in a way that doesn't hurt anyone's feelings.
Cries for Tebow back in the day, when every talking head and person covering football, especially the local media at the practices, pointed out how bad his mechanics and other skills needed to play NFL QB were, fell within the bois realm.
Cries now for starting Lynch, when local media stated how much he struggled in training camp (drop backs, progressions, etc.) and how bad he looked in his start and claiming how the Broncos would be just as well off and have won just as many games (even when they hadn't lost) with Lynch over Siemian is/was in the bois realm, because it's contrary to what the head coach and all the media actually covering the team says, not to mention what fans should have been able to see from his one start.
Realizing that what Siemian is doing, performance wise, is pretty normal for a first year starting QB (one that had zero snaps other than a kneel down prior to this season), and that prior to his injury, he had done numerous things that no Broncos first year starter, and in some cases no first year starter on any team, had ever done is understanding the game and setting fanbois feelings aside.
I want Lynch to succeed, because I want a guy that can be brushing a rushing linebacker off with his left hand, while launching an off balanced throw 50 yards down field. I want a guy to run a bootleg, and if the field is open, be able to take off for 25 yards, or if his receiver is in the clear, launch it 70 yards down field.
I get why you guys are getting little chubbies thinking about Lynch. I really do. I'm just able to tuck my little fanbois chubby back in my pants and focus on what's best for the Broncos right now, in terms of winning and defending their SB championship, and let the future sort itself out. At the same time, I've watched enough football over the last 30+ years to know that what Siemian is doing is right on par with what most first time starting QBs do. In fact, better than many, who are typically turnover machines, and who was actually in fairly lofty territory before his injury.
I don't make the fanbois mistake of comparing Siemian's play to veterans, but instead how he compares to first, second, third round draft picks and how they performed in their first year of starting, because they are usually the ones that get to start in their first or second year, and with only a VERY small number of exceptions, typically struggle badly in their first year.
