Wolfe is a nobody propped by Von, Ware is struggling, and if Talib doesn't get suspended the league is a joke. Von goes down and that's a 4 win team. [Reply]

Lynch not only showed outstanding footwork working through his drops, but he flashed the athleticism and movement skills that few expect from an XXL passer. Whether he was picking up first downs on impromptu scrambles or getting to the corner on designed rollouts, Lynch showed the kind of athleticism that could enhance the Broncos' running game down the road. With Lynch also flashing his arm delivering dimes from the pocket and on the move, the Broncos' future QB1 is playing with supreme confidence at this time. It will be interesting to see if he can continue to perform well against better competition. GRADE: A-
You obviously overlooked that caveat....he was playing against 6-10 Chicago scrubbs and didnt even have a TD. Hype much?
It will be three seasons before he's actually ready to start winning against real defenses...and that's a big if. The "defense that Manning bought"...will be gone by then. Ware, Talib and Ward....
He'll likely start next year...and have the bumps that come with it. [Reply]

And he didn't once make a great throw facing any kind of pressure. Not to mention those scrubs weren't even prepared for those bootlegs due to no game planning. It looked like Eric Hicks was out there.
Evaluating backup QB's playing in the preseason is extremely tough. It's a whole different ball game when the other team is game planning with their first string defense. [Reply]

................... He did it vs 1st stringers man, what difference does being under center vs shot make?
Lynch looks "OK" vs bears 3rd/4th/5th stringers, not really amazing to look good. [Reply]

It shows Lynch is further along in his development than Dak is. Any good college QB can sit back in shotgun and pick apart a defense if he's protected. [Reply]

Seriously, I do think you need help... and for your sake, if the Broncos do not stumble or if KC does stumble, I hope you're on medication and do not forget to take it. It could get ugly.
Dude. The guy is half psycho/half football stupid (more than likely never played a down in his life). Nobody outside of a small handful of other loons takes him seriously. But it's kind of you to humor him with responses I guess, only problem is it makes him post more. [Reply]

Cornerback Chris Harris was on SiriusXM NFL Radio yesterday and weighed in: “Paxton has the best arm and the best upside of all the Broncos quarterbacks.”
