This team will never win anything with Brock Osweiler at QB!

If Brock is so good, why did he get benched for Peyton Manning?
Are we just going to forget that? I dont care about Manning's career overall, Manning was terrible this season and still replaced Brock as the starter again.

 

Good lord.. I don't even have a response, really - just: Good lord......

 

Who is arguing Brock is "so good"? He's looked good; he's looked bad. He's a 25-year old former second round pick selected by the architect of the reigning Super Bowl champions who was mentored by the arguably the greatest QB of all-time.

His appeal is potential; no one believes he's anything beyond that.

By the guy who kept forcing Matt Schaub into the line-up ahead of Case Keenum during a lost 2013 season. Kubiak has a history of preferring over-the-hill veteran QBs.

 

This will be another qb signing where if will play bad most games then probably have a few good ones but it will take something embarrassing Schaub pick 6's/Hoyer int crazy 30 to nothing game for texans to get rid of Osweiler... at least if they get RG3 he definitely wouldn't get chance after chance if he doesn't get it done within a couple games they'll bench him and he would be cut quick.

 

Seriously, Manning did not out perform Osweiler. Kubiak just trusted his veteran more.

Bob McNair had to fire Kubiak in order to bench Schaub and play Keenum after Schaub completely collapsed.

 

Its the game he got benched in . . HE WAS TERRIBLE
the team was not responding to him . . . . Manning came in and it was a different team

I dunno about this guy

Because Gary Kubiak generally prefers veterans.

See my post above. I'm not "forgetting" that. I'd love to have specific dialogue about that benching, but no one seems willing to do it. What did he do to "deserve" the benching, and why do you have so much trust in Gary Kubiak?

 

What? He threw for 232 yards (over 10 yards/attempt) in ONE HALF. The team had over 300 yards of offense. Everything went just fine, except for an absurd amount of turnovers that Osweiler had NOTHING to do with.

This sentence sums up this thread beautifully.

 

So we've gone from jumping to conclusions not supported by the facts to now reading emotions based off of people's faces who we aren't familiar with?


I got it.

 

How? He's in the minority. He's having to defend himself against like five of us.

 

He made the thread, that was what I was referring to.

 

Sign Brock and draft someone in the 2nd or 3rd.

Why does everyone hate this? First wait and see what happened before biitching.

My prediction: sign Brock, release hours, draft a qb while in 2nd or 3rd.

Gives you a chance to groom the draft pick while getting a good look at Brock. If Brock isn't great you have open competition starting year 2 of rookie contract.

 

Oh ok. I thought you were referring the content of the thread not the title and intent of the OP. I feel bad that I've helped it get to page 3.

 

I would really love to eat crow... This season ,but this guy is not the answer... I would much rather mold kap or RG3 into a disciplined Russell Wilson type player.

 

And I'd rather mold Tom Savage into Tom Brady.

 

Odds are Brock's gonna stay in Denver unless the Texans pull a crazy stunt like bidding higher which I don't see happening. Honestly, it's probably for the best.

 

What specifically is your problem with him? It would seem that a guy who won a decent amount of games in 2015 might be a better option than someone who has genuinely been an awful NFL player for multiple years.

 

This is WAY overstating what actually happened. Denver trailed 13-7 when Manning entered the game. San Diego had just taken the lead after a Hillman fumble. On the ensuing drive, Manning completed two passes for 20 yards while Hillman/Anderson ran six times for 55 yards; Anderson scores the rushing TD.

On the next scoring drive - a 48-yard FG - Manning was 1/3 for 16 yards, including a failed 3rd down.

Next scoring drive, Manning goes 2/2 for 33 yards; Hillman rips off a 23-yard run; team fails to convert 3rd and 2 and settle for another FG (it's like 2009-2012 all over again!).

Winning score comes on the first play after Denver intercepts Rivers - a 23-yard run by Hillman.

Hillman winds up with 117 yards; Anderson 95. Manning 5/9 for 69 yards; 0/0. Osweiler 14/22, 232 yards; 1/2.

We can argue whether benching Osweiler was a good move; but any narrative that Peyton Manning sparked the Broncos is just empty bull****. He slightly better than Osweiler while being asked to do about a third. The running game turned that game around: 65 in the first half; 147 in the second.

 

Not trying to pick on you RR, but this is the problem with sports viewership these days. Jumping to lazy conclusions while misinterpreting the facts. He had 232 yards in the first half, and was moving the ball up and down the field. If anybody was TERRIBLE, it was his receivers who continuously dropped balls which led to INTs, and his RBs who fumbled the ball twice. His team wasn't responding, but to imply that had ANYTHING to do with him is disingenuous.

Do I think that he's definitively the answer at QB?? Certainly not. Do I think he's shown potential, and is an intriguing prospect? Absolutely.
