    He was always a 2-3 year project, and Siemian had a year of starting under his belt, so no, it's not a given that any improvement meant he would beat out Siemian.

    I was figuring that move might follow, since it makes sense to have Lynch and Siemian active, since if Lynch does ok between now and the end of the year, they will likely go into camp as starter/backup with Kelly battling for the 3rd QB spot.

    He wasn’t mentally ready, probably still isn’t.

    Except that their best pass rusher lines up over the RT. Be prepared for Mack to stake his claim for DPOY after this week. It’s gonna be like Claiborne did to the Cowboys. I predict Mack gets at least 3 sacks.

    No more whining for Lynch to start now.

    There will be a Raiders ass kicking by the BRONCOS this Sunday....look forward to it.

    Our offensive coordinator knows Mack VERY well, and is the guy that put in extra OL to mitigate Von and help their run game. I doubt we see 3 WR sets this weekend much either.

    Well yeah, when you put it like that it sounds bad.

    Paxton has had all of 2˝ games under his belt. Sure you're not jumping the gun?

    Kind of an indicator of Osweiler's ultimate fate as a Bronco?
