    I know it's the norm, but doesn't that seem wrong in this case?

    The reason they won't do it, is simply to avoid any form of qb controversy.

    That makes sense. Elway probably drank battery acid for breakfast during the Tebow era.

    *The statements above are my opinions, unless they are links, because then they are links, which wouldn't make them my opinions, and I suppose stats aren't necessarily opinion, but they are certainly presented to support an opinion. Proceed accordingly.

    That, and based on the two preseason games, Keenum and the first team offense need game time to continue to gel. It's not like we have a well oiled machine and have the luxury of sitting the starting QB to give the young Turk some snaps. That first team offense clearly needs game snaps to continue to improve.

    But that was covered by the "if Case marches down the field and scores a TD" part. If not, give him more reps.

    Hopefully next week Case leads the team down the field for a quick TD and sits

    I hear you, I've just never seen that. I don't think they even did that with Manning as starter.

    Or Elway - the winningest QB in Broncos history.

    Remember when Tebow looked off the safety in the Jets game?
