    Default Practice / press conference notes - week 11 (Vikings week)

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 6m
    Fangio: Drew Lock will start practicing this week

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 7m
    Fangio said some of Drew Lock’s reps would be on the scout team. Lock’s plan is “not mapped out” because “it’s going to be determined by how he looks and what he thinks.”

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 6m
    Fangio says he wants to see “good quarterback play ... that he belongs” from Lock on the practice field

    Nicki Jhabvala @NickiJhabvala 7m
    Vic Fangio said it's not set that Lock will definitely come off IR. Asked what he needs to see from Lock to make the determination, Fangio said: "Good quarterback play. That he belongs."

    Nicki Jhabvala @NickiJhabvala 6m
    Vic Fangio said a decision will be made on WR Tim Patrick — whether to activate him or leave him on IR — later in the week.

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 5m
    Fangio: Brandon Allen can influence the decision on Lock. “That’s part of the equation, as well,” so if the Broncos win some games with Allen and do well, that could impact when Lock gets on the field.

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 5m
    Fangio on the Vikings offense: “I think it’s the best offense that they’ve had since I’ve seen them the last few years.”

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 5m
    Fangio: Ja’Wuan James’ status is “up in the air” this week

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 5m
    Fangio: There will be practice tomorrow, not a “full-blown practice,” but about 25-26 snaps for offense and defense

    Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 5m
    Fangio: Bryce Callahan will try and practice tomorrow

    Nicki Jhabvala @NickiJhabvala 4m
    Will Parks and DeMarcus Walker will practice too, Fangio said. Jeff Heuerman is a "maybe."

    They're pulling a Paxton Lynch with Drew Lock. Terribly mishandling the QBs

    While I would like to see Lock, I hope Allen is successful.

    You believe Lock is 100%? Why would the coaches hold back if he wasn't?

    I imagine we'll see Lock at week 13, 14 at the latest. That still gives us 4-5 games to evaluate him this year.

    They haven’t done anything yet. He’s gonna start to practice. They want to see how he has progressed. He hasn’t practiced as of yet.
    Once he practices, they have 21 days to sign him to the active roster.

    He should have been practicing weeks ago, considering he was throwing a football in October. Really he shouldn’t have been IR’d at all. I’m with Shazam on this one.

    Maybe they think he sucks or that we picked the wrong guy (a la Lynch) but it would be nice to see him on the field at some point one way or the other. As I’ve said before, QB is our biggest issue until it isn’t. This year should have been about doing everything they could to evaluate Lock and instead it feels like they’ve gone out of their way to not play him

    So what's the hold up?

    Lock was a 1st round pick at this time last year. Broncos moved around to get him. Why would he suck?

    He is a project, just like every pick this group has made at qb...

    I dont think he ever truly should have been considered a first round talent, but that just my 2 cents.

    Lock’s plan isn’t mapped out?

    What the **** are they doing, then?

    I hope he’s just politicking for the media, because if he isn’t and he’s telling the truth that’s egregious. You better have a ******* plan. I’m going to choose to say he’s just politicking publicly. Yeah, that’s it.

    Holy crap you guys are impatient! Have you seen the kid? He looks like he’s 11.
    He slipped to the second round because of it.
    Once he looks 13 he may get a shot!

    Supposed broken thumb. If true, I get it. I broke a thumb once. Not fun.
    Brees came back from his pretty quick though.
