We've been spoiled with all the great Elway years and then the fluky Tebow season then an over-ripe Peyton Manning, I think too many have unrealistic expectations of what a rookie QB should play like. We can't be afraid Lynch won't be perfect. He needs reps and confidence.
I miss the old Mile High Stadium.
Probably just a rumor but I heard Beefstew and Brock were doing the cha-cha now.
Beef is the man.

Ho hum.

I in turn agree that even the best young QBs need real experience to season them (in every sense.) My reservations (especially last year) were not about whether Lynch, Siemian or [this space for hire] was the franchises future. My concern was and is whether we had or have the protection and run support to actually allow WHOEVER our franchise QB is to develop rather than devolve into an injury-prone spaz who spends the rest of his career throwing the ball away after a 0-step drop even when he has great protection, because he EXPECTS none.
Could/can we give ANY QB time to drop back, read moving defenses, go through progressions, look off safeties, let receivers get open deep, find check downs or even just pump fake? Sure, ALL great QBs need but NONE can develop all those critical abilities without opportunities. But real "opportunity" is more than just tossing a rookie in front of a stampede of pass rushers before he's even learned the playbook, expecting THAT experience "eventually" hones his skills til he's a great leader.
I want Peyton Manning or Derek Carr, not Archie Manning or David Carr. I mean, if we want to talk about innate and inherent talent and skill that simply can't be coached, those are great comparisons, because it's literally the same DNA (or at least 50% of it) with VASTLY different results. And if, as Broncos fans, we MUST use the Elway Metric, the best "development" of his rookie season and CAREER happened before he even arrived at his first training camp:
Refusing to play for a team so hopelessly bereft of a supporting cast it "earned" the #1 overall pick. Oliver Lucks son should've talked with BOTH HoF Denver QBs.
Oh, valid point. I thought you meant all starters, you should take the time to be more descriptive, don't be shy. —Jaded

Only in hindsight. The point is valid, no QB is made or broken after 3 games regardless of how their career turned out. One guy even had a 3-16 record in Tampa Bay before going to San Fran and becoming a HOF'r. I think the overall point is it takes more than a handful of games to determine if a QB is a bust or not.
Babalu!
