You will know by the end of the second week training camp. If the 1st team reps are split or bridgewater is taking the majority of them, Lock will be the number 2 QB.

Got it.

If he lights it up in the first 3 real games I'll give him praise. Preseason I don't care if he's good or sucks. It doesn't matter.

He deserves exactly what he has. A chance to compete with Teddy. If he earns the job over him, so be it. He certainly has done nothing to deserve being handed the job over anyone at this point.

I cant believe im seeing the case keenum joe flacco debate for a 3rd time in 5 years. Local broncos media " CASE IS LIGHTING UP PRACTICE." Then i go to TC and see Chad Kelly dropping dimes and keesum throwing picks. RIP CHAD KELLY.

Neither has bridgewater after 8 year’s. But you’d rag on the guy with 20 starts vs the guy with 8 years of being piss poor

The first thing im gunna do when the new Madden drops is trade Teddy Bridgewater for Tebow.

its just crazy to me people want to repeat same mistakes. This isnt the 2nd coming of Teddy Bridgewater. He was never impressive in his entire NFL career. I must have missed the first coming of Teddy Bridgewater.

Best current option we have. Elite arm strength. Mobile. Let's not pretend he's a 7th round scrub with no talent. It's footwork, decision making and reads. Teachable things. I get the pessimism, I really do, and I think it's basically a coin flip that you will be 100% vindicated. However, given the choice between he and Teddy, I'm willing to see. I feel he deserves a fair shake after his first real off-season, his first returning OC in something like 5 years, the rookie WR's having a year under their belt, and maybe most importantly the return of Sutton. Would I rather have Rodgers? Lol, duh! That said, I'm fine with rolling the dice, if he fails we have a game manager and we go elsewhere. If he does flourish we are in great shape for years, with a loaded roster and cap space. *shrugs*

Although I disagree on the next to nothing, this is completely fair.

Also, fair. He has to win the job.

All i know is a better see a physical set this year. I want Sutton, Patrick and Alberto and Fant all on the field at the same time. This presents a running threat and serious receiving threat at same time. Kind of like what the patriots did with Hernandez. Lets see if Shurmur is smart enough to do it.
