Kelly and Lynch have both set the Broncos back. Bad bets, Elway.

TS was drafted and started for us for two years...at a certain point it's no longer the weird thing that a seventh rounder was the starter out of circumstances...he was just our starter.
Kelly was selected as a project...and as a project that had more upside than our starting QB...too bad we relied on him as a fallback plan when he didn't have his head straight.
Keenum was a horrible signing and it reeked of lack of understanding of not just his ability, but where the team was, too.
Sanchez was a guy who was supposed to be a stopgap for us. Bridging the way from him to Lynch...that entire thing imploded.
Now we have a fading 34 year old QB who hasn't been good in quite some time.
It just sucks, man.

Kelly outplayed him in all pre season games
People can argue it was against third stringers, but without question, Kelly looked better in pre season
If I remember correctly Kelly was inconsistent in camp, but he sure balled out in the games
There was no leaning on him to be the future QB, that's a stretch.
This is just a ridiculous statement. All 6th/7th round developmental QBs are believed to not have the skills to be a starting QB or the character to be a reliable NFL player. Hence the reason they are developmental.or even your long term development/backup when he’s a proven dipshit.
It's asinine to make the comparison between a first round pick in Lynch and a Mr. Irrelevant pick in Kelly, being on the same par in terms of "bad bets."
Denver signed a vet to a two-year deal, didn’t draft another quarterback in a quarterback heavy draft class and cut a first round pick at the position in his third year. I’d say it was pretty clear they were betting on Chad Kelly when they made him the backup and the only young quarterback on the roster.
“On par,” ok, I’ll agree with you. But they were both bet on, and Denver lost on both.
