I didn't even know he threw an int, I must have been out of the room for that.

I did not see chubb. As a rookie I thought he would get some extended time. How did he do? I tuned in during 2nd quarter

Not excusing it by any means but at least you could tell he was playing with fire and trying to make a play. On the contrary Lynch didn't look to me like he gave two shits out there...

Well put.

He was only in briefly. His one highlight was not filling a gap as their RB shucked and jived all over us on the opening drive

IMO Lynch does care. It just seems like the game never slowed down for him. He is overthinking everything because he's afraid he'll make a mistake and makes way, way too many.

One day at camp he had a good day, a really good day and I thought wow whatever needed to click, did. Then they had a day off and the next time I saw him it was more of the same. What I heard on the radio is that they had several plays for him that day that really worked to his strengths. He was always in shot gun and they made his plays simple. He has a great arm, he has the strongest arm of the 3. His style just doesn't work with what Denver does. Stok said that he needs to go to Houston to play behind Deshaun Watson because he could develop in a system that works with his strengths.

At this point I think it will only makes things worse for us and him if he stays in Denver.

Maybe saying he doesnt care is the wrong term i would agree, but i do think he has checked out mentally. When things dont go well he easily falls apart and that is never a good sign for a QB.

I'm watching now... in the third quarter... man, Lynch is bad. Wide open receivers running ACROSS THE MIDDLE and he's lost, not seeing them, etc. The guys done. I don't see any growth.

Lynch said the tip interception was a fluke and "thats just football". He also called the Royce Freeman TD run after an interception a "touchdown drive". This dude isnt dealing with reality. Hes delusional. He thinks he is somehow pretty good.

I agree North. I don't know his history but to me it feels like his talent was enough to get him to college and keep his position. When you have to prove yourself over and over (Sloter, Kelly) you develop a mental toughness. That toughness is something the other players pick up on and that energy translate into fighting together. It's not something you can teach and I haven't seen Paxton develop it in his time here.

I haven't seen Paxton develop anything worthwhile during his time here.

But he’s tall and has a decent Dub move.
