Thread: So... How Short is Siemian’s Leash?

They weren't looking for a trade. After all, what happens if Trevor flames out by throwing wild picks like he did the last 2 games, AND Brock comes in and plays like he did to get benched in Houston, AND Paxton is healthy?

Remember that after the Chargers game the Broncos play on the road at the Chiefs and Eagles, the two best teams in the NFL right now, and then home against the Patriots. Lose this winnable game and they could easily wind up 3-6. Even with a win, they're likely to lose at least 2 of the next 3 and possibly they have no chance in all three.

I'd write up the Eagles game right now as a loss for instance. But, then they've got 5 games against the Raiders, Dolphins, Jets, and Colts, all winnable. They need to survive the next 4 weeks though.

Not defending Siemian at all, and to be honest, I would've been OK with Oz playing the 2nd half. We needed some sort of shock to get us back into the game, and I found Siemian wasn't on his A game that night.

Red zone is awful too, and what excuse is there when you had 2 weeks to figure out the red zone issues, and still fail miserably in the RZ.

CJ Anderson is who I thought he was, a mediocre RB at best. Jamaal Charles is still good, and needs more carries IMO.

Sometimes when it's not your night, it's not your night. It was evident Sunday night. But to be fair, we looked lethargic against the Raiders in the 2nd half, and we looked brutal against the Bills.

What has changed so much from the first 2 weeks, to now?

So the bengals game last year and then sucking the rest of the way was on coaching, this year New staff and the good game vs cowboys and then sucking again is on the coaching again... I swear some of you just love this guy so much that you'll lie to yourselves lol.

He just needs more reps in practice.

So... Sounds like ts leash it's not very limited at all. Which sucks...

Literally just posted a thread saying how I want Brock to play next week..

I believe everyone should accept the fact that Siemian will not be benched. I'm sure Osweiler is here only in terms of Siemian being hurt. Lynch & Kelly are still hurt/recovering.

I'm about as tired of that ass clown of a poster as I am Trevor at this point, and that's pretty damn tired.

Siemian has a longer leash then i do with broncos forums mods.

Well... that's sorta as it should be.

Screw that, unlike the offense and coaching staff im going down kicking and screaming.

This is why i say soon we gotta see what Kelly AND Lynch have to offer, this is for 2018 and beyond, because this Season is lost. BUT: I don't care if we have a 2012 Manning back there, NO QB could be productive in this offense with their proetection scheme. Its a recipe for disaster.

But your QB has to be able to audible to correct play and be able to beat the blitz and make them not load box with deep throws.

I get this sneaking suspicion that Lynch isn't going to be ready to play at all this year (kind of like a low grade Andrew Luck situation). Which makes it all the more baffling that he wasn't put on IR, instead of eating up a roster spot. If he's every healthy, though, he should play so we can all see with our eyes again that he sucks. Interested in Kelly too, though again, I'm not sure he'll be healthy enough (and ready enough in terms of learning the playbook) to be ready to go this year.
