And, if Lock is truly a project than i think we can get used to seeing more Flacco next year. Its been Elway's MO when it comes to his pet projects.
I don’t think we can expect Lock to come in light it up. I think the team just needs to see signs that he “gets it.”

It isnt about winning ballgames, its about whether or not he can play the position.
You mean as opposed to the Elway plan of:
1. Joe Flacco is the future this year and for the next 2, so renegotiate his contract so as to have more dead cap space next year if they move on from Flacco?
2. Don't play Drew Lock so we don't see what we have in him! Instead waste time with scrubs like Brandon Allen?
3. Don't draft a QB next year because they have Drew Lock, although they have no idea whether he will ever be a franchise QB?
That plan? I like your plan better.
Exactly! What the FLIP is the point of winning games this year when it only gets you a worse draft position?
"We haven't given up on the season!"
Well, then they are criminally stupid, because after you lose the first 4 games, the season is done. Period. Nobody is making the playoffs after 0-4. You'd have to go 10-2 the rest of the way to get a wild card. And at 3-6? They'd have to win out.
There is ZERO chance of that happening, and the fact they can't understand and accept that reality is proof of negligent mismanagement.
Elway is just trying to have a winning record because of his ego, but 9-7 would be the absolute worst thing that could happen to this team.
Fortunately they are incapable of winning 6 games, so Elway is protected from his own incompetence. He might be trying to "win now" but they are getting a top 5 draft pick regardless.
So being 2 games out of first in the west doesnt mean anything?
I mean really there isnt anyone in this division running away with anything....
Again, the goal is to win every game, I dont see why trying to win is a bad thing.
And secondly, with the amount of bitching about how we draft, should we not be rooting we cant **** up a high selection, by not having a high selection?
